May/Summer Watermelon Seeds Counting Mats File Folder Activity (1-20)
What educators are saying
Description
This Watermelon Seeds Counting Mats File Folder Activity would a great addition to your math center during these final weeks of school! With a fun, bright, summer theme, this resource will encourage students to review counting and recognizing numbers 1-20.
You could even use this resource for summer school, summer review, homeschool, SPED, May preschool centers, summer math centers, summer morning math tub, etc.
Did I mention file folder activities are fun, easy to take out and store away, promote educational activities, and also help improve fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, critical thinking, and more!
So what's included?
- directions page
- 2 different colored watermelon mats (attach these to the inside of a file folder)
- number cards 1-20 with numerals and the number words
- 20 watermelon seeds
How does this activity work?
Attach the watermelon mat to the inside of a file folder. Cut out the number cards and watermelon seed counters. Students choose a number card, say the name of the number on the card, and then use the seeds to count out the correct number onto the watermelon.
Feeling extra super?!- Instead of using the included printable seeds, use REAL watermelon seeds as counters! You could also even use play dough made seeds, pom poms, beads, etc for a more sensory based approach!
