Finish The Pattern:

This Halloween-themed math activity focuses on continuing and completing different patterns. It teaches students how to identify a pattern and continue it using different halloween themed items. There are a total of #30 different patterns for your students to complete. This is a great independent math activity for your students during small groups or whenever you want to use it!

I would print and laminate this activity for better durability and then store the remaining halloween pieces in a container of some sort so they don’t get lost after you cut them out.

I hope you and your students enjoy this product!

Counting and coloring Numbers 0 to 4 on the abacus in a maze. These number sense mazes are perfect for pre-k and kindergarten to gain awareness of the numbers 0–4. Students practice number recognition on both the numeral and the abacus. This also encourages students to subitize and use number sense.

There are 4 different mazes, and answer key.

What is subitizing?

Subitizing is the ability to quickly recognize the number of objects in a small group without counting them individually. It's essentially the ability to perceive the quantity of objects at a glance. This skill is particularly evident with small numbers, typically up to around 5 or 6 objects in this activity, 0–4.

What is number sense?

Number sense is the ability to identify and conceptualize numbers, like 1, 2, 3. The activity helps compare the abacus beads with the numerals.

Halloween Themed Number Play-doh Mats & Ten Frames

(Fall Activities)

This is a great fun fall-themed counting activity that helps introduce one-to-one correspondence to your students. I recommend laminating these for better durability and to be able to reuse them.

Your students can use play-doh, candy, (or any other item you would like to use) to form each number and then count the correct amount of items to show the number they formed.

Apple Themed Counting Book - Emergent Reader:

This is such a fun fall themed counting activity. I would cut out and staple the apple tree counting book together beforehand.

There is #2 pages of colorful apples as well as black and white apples. You can have your student’s practice holding scissors and cut the apples out or if they are not ready for that step you can cut them out yourself as well. Once the apples are cut out they will read the sentence and then glue the correct amount of apples to each tree. There is a black and white apple tree book (that you can have your student’s color) as well as a colorful one as well depending on which one you would like to use.

At the end of either book the last page also has an area where they read how many apples should be on each line and then draw the correct amount of apples according to what the number says.

Pumpkin Themed Counting Book Emergent Reader:

This is such a fun fall themed counting activity. I would cut out and staple the pumpkin counting book together beforehand.

There is #3 pages of colorful pumpkins as well as black and white pumpkins. You can have your students practice holding scissors and cut the pumpkins out. Or if they are not ready for that step you can cut them out yourself as well. Once the pumpkins are cut out they will read the sentence and then glue the correct amount of pumpkins to each page. There is a black and white pumpkin book (that you can have your student’s color) as well as a colorful one as well depending on which one you would like to use.

At the end of each book the last page also has an area where they read how many pumpkins should be on each line and then draw the correct amount of pumpkins according to what the number says.
