This apple themed number recognition center is a great fall or autumn themed center for students who are practicing number or number word recognition. This game is for small group instruction or can be used as a whole class game.

Designed for the pocket chart, Where's the Worm? is a game for centers or whole group instruction where a worm is hidden behind an apple. A poem is chanted where the student(s) must say the number they think the worm is behind. Once guessed, the number is removed. If the worm is behind the apple, then the worm must be hidden again to play further. If the worm is not behind the apple, then the poem is chanted again and a new number is guessed. This game has numbers 1-100 as well as number words up to 20.
