These are both community helper themed file folder games. One game has shape and color matching practice and the other file folder game has number recognition practice as well as one-to-one correspondence practice.

I would print and laminate all the pages for both activities.

For the number Fire Truck file folder game attach the firetruck pages that have numbers on each one onto the filefolder. Once that is done cut out the firetrucks that have the borders and a different number of dots on each one. Once that is done I would attach a velcro dot to the front of each firetruck that has a number on it as well as the back of each one that have different numbers of dots on each one. You and your students can use this product multiple times.

For the shape/color matching file folder game I would do the same thing. Print and laminate all the firetruck pages. Once that is done attach the #2 pages of shape/color firetrucks that do not have the borders around each separate firetruck to the file folder. Then cut the firetrucks with borders on them out and create fire truck counting cards. Once that is done put a velcro dot on each firetruck that's attached to the file folder and then place a velcro dot on the back of each firetruck counting card. This makes this game easy to reuse for different themes and activities that you do throughout the year!

I hope you and your students enjoy this product as mach as I enjoyed making it!
