Math Links: Skip Counting and Doubles

September 13, 2010 Ticia 12 Comments

What do these have to do with each other?  Well, nothing really other than I’ve started putting together a math book to help them with their math.

 

Our math lesson this week was about skip counting, and I remembered a super cool printable that Jolanthe had made over at Homeschool Creations, so I hopped over there and printed those off.  First one to a page, and then 3 copies at 4 to a page (you’ll understand why in a sec).

 

Then I scanned in the doubles book I made when I was teaching, because a few weeks ago we touched on the doubles, and made that into a book (you’re about to get two different versions, one to print one page at a time, and one that I used to print multiple pages at once).

My Doubles Book

Superman completing his math with the help of his cool new book, using my cool new binding machine (FYI, I glued the pages together since I forgot to print on cardstock, added benefit it’s double-sided now).

 

And, that would be all I had written prior to Patrick (my step-father dying), and I”m too tired to write more, but I want to get this published.

 

So, head on over to Joyful Learner to see other great math ideas.

    Those are great images for aiding memory!

    Like Christy, I wish there were good words to give – but, your mom is on our prayer list.
