We are studying penguins this week...one of my favorite units all year! Here's our math centers and a fun little math "art-tivity". You can find these centers (plus lots more) in my Playful Penguin Unit over at my tpt shop.
Literacy centers to come later this week!
Thanks, as always, for reading my blog. I'll give my new Penguin Unit to one random person that comments on this post. Be sure to leave your e-mail in your comment so you can grab your freebie!
Good Luck!

I love to look at your ideas on your blog. I have purchased several of your units. I teach Pre-K so some of it I have to "tone" down if you know what I mean.

DeleteJulie your Penguin unit is adorable! I was wondering how the "How Many More" activity works (I can't quite figure it out from the picture). I bet your Valentines unit is just as cute!

Hey Karyn,
DeleteThey have to figure out how many more squares/blocks the taller tower has than the shorter tower...they've done really well with it so far. :) Does that make any sense?
Your centers are so cute :)
