Party Math

This is an easy way to reuse extra birthday party decorations. I cut apart a Toy Story Banner from my son's 4th birthday. (He just turned 15 so I have had this game a while!) Tape numbers on the bottom. Use a theme appropriate manipulative for the children to count out the correct number. It's a fun way to practice making sets and reuse material that would otherwise be thrown away.

  1. Hey Jill! Loving the blog! I can't believe your son is 15!!! I want to ask you if I can include a link to your new blog in the resources section of my handouts? I always like to include links to sites where teachers can find more ideas. Sorry I couldn't find your e-mail :( Thanks!

  2. Absolutely, Vanessa! Thanks for thinking of me!!! Yes it is crazy he is 15! What is also crazier is having a 15 year old and a 1 year old! :)
