Add or Subtract Bingo
Please feel free to take…
• 1 set of game directions and master game boards
Please feel free to make…
• 1 special game cube (write + on 3 sides and – on
the remaining 3 sides)
You will need…
• Wooden cube
• Markers
This is a nice game that reinforces addition and
subtraction skills. The advanced game board is
meant to be used with special 12-sided dice. You
can differentiate it for lower/higher abilities by
changing the dice and game boards. You may even
have 2 children play with separate game boards
and dice based on their abilities. It is a fun Math
with Someone game.
ADD OR SUBTRACT BINGO
Materials: Bingo cards, chips/markers, two 6-sided dice
(or two 12-sided dice), one special die with +/- sides
Number of players: 2 to 4
Directions: Player 1 rolls all 3 dice and looks at the
operations die to determine whether he must add or
subtract. Player 1 finds the sum or the difference of the
two number dice. Player 1 looks for an open space on the
board that shows the answer.
Only one space may be marked on a turn, even if more
than one space is available with the correct number. If no
open spaces show the needed number, the turn passes on
to the next player.
Players take turns rolling the dice, finding the sum or
difference, and placing markers on the boards. The first
player to get four markers in a row wins.

Craft Stick Toss & Record
This is an easy game to make to introduce place value.
Craft sticks have 10 dots on one side and 1 dot on the
other side. Students may use any number of craft sticks
depending on their abilities. In first grade I usually use
10 or less for the counting version and 5 or less for the
addition version. Students gently toss the craft sticks
and record how they land. This is a nice Math by Self
choice.

Fact Tower Stacks
Please feel free to take…
• directions for playing (white half page)
Please feel free to make…
• a stack of 20
You will need some space to play this Math by Self
game.
You can vary the difficulty of facts based on the
needs in your classroom. You could use addition,
subtraction, multiplication, or division.
I’ve also used these with sight words to practice
important words, so you can use this a number if
different ways!
FACT TOWER STACKS
Materials:
Materials: Cups labeled with facts to practice. Ex: 6+1=, 5+4=,
something to store them in
Number of Players: 1 player
Directions: Player takes out the cups and solves the problem on
the bottom. If they don’t know the answer, the cup can’t go on the
stack. ***You may want to have some type of checking system like
they need to check to make sure it’s right on a number grid or
multiplication fact grid. You could also put answers inside the cups.

FREE THE ANIMALS
Materials: Free the Animals game boards (1 per player), 2
6-sided dice (dots or numbers), animal counters or animal
cards
***We printed the game boards on colored cardstock (1
game on green, 1 game on pink, etc.) to help students know
which game boards go together
Number of Players: 2 to 4 players
Directions: Each partner gets their own game board and fills
each cage with an animal.
Players take turns rolling the dice and removing an animal
from the matching number’s cage. If you roll a number and
the cage is empty, you lose your turn.
The first player to empty all their cages is the winner.
Variation: On the 2nd round you could have players fill the
cages back up!
Free the Animals
Please feel free to take…
• 2 game boards (white/master and green)
You will need some small plastic animals or animal
picture cards to play this Math by Self game. The
more interesting the animals, the more engaged the
kids are. You can change the level of difficulty by
changing the dice…
EASY – both standard dice with dots (for students
who still need to count all)
MEDIUM – one standard die and one with a
numeral (encourages counting on from the numeral)
HARD – both numerals (encourages automaticity of
basic facts up to 6+6)
Journal Prompts
I found a great resource on www.teacherspayteachers that was definitely
money well-spent! One of my favorite sellers is named Jillian Starr,
Starr, and
I bought her journal prompts aligned to the Common Core. She has
these for a number of grade levels (1-4, specifically). I LOVE the
open-ended ways problems are presented; although, it often requires a
bit more explanation from me or another adult helper in order to get
appropriate and complete responses. I have included a few examples
from the first grade bundle to give you an idea of what you can
expect. She also includes copy ready pages for each prompt to make it
easy to copy, cut, and paste in notebooks or journals.
Journal Prompts
Please feel free to take…
• 1 master of journal ideas and resources
I use journals on an almost daily basis. I supply a
variety of prompts for the kids to access as well as
some word problems for them to solve. We also use
our journals during some CGI types of problemsolving work in small groups.
It is another goal (not in use at this time) to use
journals as a resource for learning with ideas for
strategies, tips, and other math concepts we have
discussed and worked on in class.
Journals are a great place to show growth in
problem-solving and mathematical thinking. It also
gives kids a place to share their ideas in writing.
I have also used a number of prompts from Linda Dacey’s
Dacey book of
Leveled Math Problems.
Problems This is a great resource for differentiation
and getting kids to explain and write about their thinking. I sometimes
use them as journal prompts, but also do individual or small group
problem-solving with them.
Make a Number Bracelet
Please feel free to make…
• 1-2 number bracelets
You will need…
• 1 pipe cleaner
• One set of beads (all in one color)
• 1 self-adhesive label
1. You may want to cut the pipe cleaner down to
about 9 inches (they are 12” to start).
2. Decide on a number and put on that number
of beads.
3. Twist the ends together to make a
bracelet/circle.
4. Fold the label over the twisted ends.
5. Label the bracelet with the number of beads
you used.
These are great for decomposing numbers, simple
addition, and fact families!

MONSTER MATH
Materials: Monster Math cards
You can print in color from Teachers Pay Teachers. It’s a
free resource from Reagan Tunstall at:
https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/MonsterMath-247620
***We printed them on colored cardstock (1 game on green,
1 game on pink, etc.) to help locate which game missing
pieces go to.
Number of Players: 2 to 4 players
Directions: Lay out cards face down in a grid. Each player
takes turns picking 2 cards. If they make 10, the player
keeps the cards and goes again. If they don’t make 10, the
player puts them back and the play moves on to other
player.
When all cards have been matched, players count their
cards to see who has the most.
Number Grid Puzzles
Puzzles
This is something kids can do all year long! You can start by cutting
the charts into rows or columns to help gain understanding of how
the chart is organized. You could enlarge and work with only a few
rows at a time and gradually move into an entire grid up to 100 or
beyond. Make it more challenging by cutting pieces smaller or with
more involved patterns. The kids really enjoy doing these as a Math
by Self choice. Some students will need or benefit from a master
where they can match their pieces to a complete grid. Note: Pieces
will get lost, so it is beneficial to label each puzzle piece on the back
and match that to the envelope where the puzzle is stored so lost
pieces can find their home more easily.

Please feel free to make…
• 1 of each number grid puzzle on cardstock
You will need…
• Number grid masters
• Scissors (to cut the grids into puzzle pieces)
• Markers (you will want to mark each piece to

• Envelopes (2) for storage of pieces
This is something kids can do all year long! You can

Labeling pieces and matching envelopes is key to management.
Place Value Cards
These are wonderful tools for helping students with
place value and using expanded form when
representing 2 and 3 digit numbers. Students stack
them on top of each other, lining up the gray end
caps to build 2 and 3 digit numbers. Students may
use them alone or in small groups. They could
become part of a tool-kit or resource folder.
