Get Ready for Math!

Essential supplies for your home learning kit

Day Three

Make Some Visuals:

Click here to download and print the visuals to be used with math activities. Many are simple and can just be drawn on blank paper if it’s easier!

Gather Supplies:

You don’t have to go out and buy these things (please don’t!), but if you already have them around the house, gather them all together for use in various activities. If an activity requires something you don’t have, you will most likely be able to find a substitute when the time comes.

Objects to be used as counters (Hot Wheels cars, pom poms, beads, blocks, coins, buttons, dry beans, pasta, paper clips, Lego, Connect Four pieces, glass gems, small rocks)
Small containers (muffin tins, ice cube trays, single serve yogurt containers, small paper/ plastic cups)
1-2 decks of cards
As many dice as you can find (10 is ideal, more is better for multiple players!) https://amzn.to/33HY7hU

Small, lightweight balls or objects (ping pong balls, badminton birdies, pom poms)
