Patterns Plus Fruit Loops

This activity is from the blog Just Add Clipart. It has an activity to help students with patterning by having them use cereal.

Large Math Resource Website

Mrs. Arnold' First Grade Class has quite a few resources. I especially liked her pattern activities and story problems.

Number Bracelets

This is a great idea for math tubs from Tunstall's Teaching Tidbits. She shows how to use beads to show the parts that make up a whole number.

Brain Chains

Check out this great video by Teacher Tipster to help children with place value. Brain Chains are a great idea for calendar time, but I was also thinking they would be fun to make for the 100th day of school.

Toothpicks and Number Sense

I think this idea from the blog First Grade Parade is great for beginning of the year math tubs. It is simple, but yet you can differentiate the activity easily by using larger numbers.

Beginning Number Sense Math Mats

Thanks to Heidi Samuelson for finding this great resource from Geocitites. I especially like the Lego mats.

Math Flashcards

Here is a great resource for all different types of Flashcards from the site Have Fun Teaching.

What Number Am I? Place Value Riddles

This is another great resource posted from Dr. Nicki's blog. It is from the Courseware Solutions website. These riddles would work well in a small group lesson.
