Rockin' Kindergarten for over 30 years!

Start Your Math Engines! Common Core State Standards Counting with an Automotive Twist (and a Free Printable)!

Remember last week when we showed you this “speedy” activity?


Rev Up Your Sight Words!


Well, we were so “revved up” by it that we couldn’t resist adding a twist and turning it into a math activity!  Here’s a free printable you can download now and be ready to go! [gview file=”https://californiakindergartenassociation.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Cars-number-cards-0-201.pdf”] Simply print out the cards – cardstock or other heavier paper would be better, but isn’t necessary.  Then laminate for durability and cut them apart.  Working in a small group, the students draw a card, then use their little toy cars to form the correct number.  Easy, hands-on and fun!  We’ve included some empty cards for zero and the inevitable missing ones…  {sigh}.  :)

Have you used this activity?  Done last week’s?  Let us know how it went!  We’d love to hear from you!

    For the more advanced students I would have them write the number down as a prolem and solve it. (I.E. 12 +34=)
