Pigs seem to have become as popular as owls in teaching materials lately! What's not to love? Muddy, snorty, pushy... okay, oddly appealing, too. :) This math center game will be a fun way for your first and second graders to practice two Common Core math skills: addition facts (in this case, through sums of 12), and mentally adding ten.
Personally, I'm having a little bit of trouble getting past the fact that this item turned out to resemble a butcher's chart, but hey, that's just me - I know your little ones won't mind. :) You might even print this up as an independent activity for a math center, so your little learners can each color their own pigs like patchwork quilts! :)
Happy Teaching!
thanks for the giggle about the butchers chart!
ReplyDeleteHeh heh ... you know how it is, once you see it you can't get it out of your head!
