Summer Math Centers for Kindergarten

The Summer Math Centers for Kindergarten contains a collection of games and activities intended for use in centers and small groups with children in Kindergarten (Prep).

Each activity includes a center label that can be printed and placed on the front of your storage device. Also included are “I can” center instructions to help children remember what to do. I have included a recording page at the end of each activity in order to have evidence of each child’s work.

Summer write & wipe number tracing (1-20)
To prepare the cards for use in a write and wipe center, print, laminate them, and then cut them apart. The intention of this activity is for children to practice correct number formation with a dry-erase marker. The cards can be kept in a book-like format by punching a hole in the top left corner and securing the cards together with a key ring or a pipe-cleaner.

To prepare for use, print the pages, laminate them for durability and then cut along the dashed lines. Glue the number circles onto the end of household clothes pegs. The aim is for children to identify the missing numbers and place the correct circles in the empty spaces to complete the number sequence.
