Literacy and Math Station Fun!

Below you will find pictures of our recently completed math and literacy stations.  Some literacy skills we are working on include: word families, blends, and popcorn word spelling.  All of our math stations included practice with addition!  


Eggs in a Basket- at this station students select an egg from the basket.  On the outside of the egg the last two letters of a consonant vowel consonant word has been written.  Students open the egg to see what real word they can make.  They record the word on an egg on their paper.  


After recording words on their paper, students were asked to use one word in a sentence on the back of their paper.  


What's Planted Underneath- at this station students are practicing making popcorn words.  Students first select a carrot.  Inside of the carrot are letter tiles that spell a popcorn word. 

 

Students use the mini word wall pictured above to help them determine what word they can spell.  


After spelling the word with the letter tiles provided, students recorded the word on their paper.

Students recorded the blends on their paper and colored their flower to match.


Roll the Dice- at this station students rolled two dice.  Students then wrote an equation to match the dice they rolled.  Finally, students solved the equation and wrote the answer on their paper. 


Domino Addition- students reached into the bag and pulled out a domino.  They recorded the dots from their domino on their paper.  Students then wrote an addition sentence to match the dots on their domino.  


Egg Carton Addition- students shake the egg carton to see where the two erasers inside land.  


Students write an addition sentence to record where the erasers landed.  They then solve the problem and record the answer on their paper.

  1. I stumbled across your blog as a newly graduated primary school teacher. I absolutely love the umbrella and flower matching, as well as the hot air balloon maths. Did you make these up or are they available online? eerin.marshall@gmail.com
