Math Centers Kindergarten | Kindergarten Math Centers | Number Sense Math Mats

* * * Summer Savings Deal * * *

Based off request: I have updated and bundled all my NO-PREP Seasonal Sets into 1 great BUNDLE! There are 296 NO-PREP Mats for Math Centers that last from Back to School to Summertime! The set includes: representing, ordering, addition/composing, subtraction/decomposing, comparing, and graphing.

Are you looking for an effective, engaging, differentiated, consistent and easy to manage set of math centers/small group activities that will boost your student confidence, numeracy skills, and mental math abilities that last the ENTIRE year?! Look NO more! My students used these mats all last year and made many gains with mental math, foundational numbers and developed a LOVE for learning through creative number & hands-on play. This activity set is focused on 100% student-centered learning that builds over the course of the school year. It’s also a resource that keep YOU, the busy teacher reaching ALL the learners, in mind with its simplistic and NO-PREP approach. Put your scissors away and get that colored paper READY to roll.

My personal use:

At the start of each month, I will pick 5-6 mats to use throughout week. I pick one from each skill set (sometimes 2 or 3). My centers change every two weeks because I like the first week to be practice and the second to be mastery. If students are really loving the center, I will leave it 3 weeks and toss in a fresh set of manipulatives to keep them engaged. Generally, I end up using between 15-20 mats during the month from morning review buckets, small group teaching, and math centers.

Have fun:
Thank you so much for all you do as a teacher to make your students successful and enjoy their learning. I really hope you and your students thoroughly love these no-prep mats! As a former struggling math student myself, I hold the mats near and dear to my heart and hope that I’ve reached all your learners with whatever he/she may need in an engaging and effective way that will serve them beyond their grade level. It’s also my hope this tool is helpful for you, too!
