In case you couldn’t tell from my post over at ABC and 123 we’re working on this A LOT. Well, here’s one of our other activities we’ve been doing.
Supplies needed: one of the printables linked below, or your own hundred chart you’ve cut up, there’s a lot available
And for those who can’t tell by the pictures, the order is: hundreds chart, 2s, 5s, and then 10s.
I cut it out into strips for each row, and then passed them out in a circle to the kids.
Then we played it much like many other games of putting down the cards in order, and your goal was to be the first one out. Of course we played until everyone won, and everyone was out of cards, so being first wasn’t the amazing deal you would think it could be.
After all of these games and practice this December, they’re starting to get the hang of it.
The test will be how they’re doing with it after a few weeks of not playing these games. But, I have plans to keep this in our review cycle…….. Yes, great plans.
Now head on over to Joyful Learner to see what other people have been doing to work on math.
I must be tired this morning, because even the thought of having “great plans” wears me out 🙂
Thank you!
Skip counting can make fun games. I admire that you make so many worksheets and materials. I don't have the patience for it.
I will keep this in mind. Great idea!
Very cool! We'll have to try this once my kids get their numbers down. Emma is FINALLY counting past 12, so hopefully in the near future…
My kids love skip counting. I like the way you did this.
What a neat game — sounds like the kiddos are making lots of great progress with Math!
Happy New Year!!
I love the new layout — very cool! 🙂
For some reason Anna resists skip counting like nothing else – she really has a knowledge gap there. I might try your game (wish I had more players too!).
oh cool I need skip counting stuff like this, thanks so much.
Thanks. I need to work on skip counting with Bear.
neat! I have yet to introduce the 100s chart to my daughter, thanks for sharing
This reminds me of the puzzle idea…basically, cut up a hundreds board into puzzle pieces and have the child assemble. But your approach is better for learning the correct sequence. Thanks for linking!
