This math activity set is sure to make magical mathematical moments
happen as students explore numbers, counting, sorting, estimation,
graphing, probability, and much more. Activities highlighted below align
with the NCTM Standards and can be used with whole-class lessons, small
groups, learning centers, or for individual skill reinforcement.
Contents:
1 Hat, 18 small rabbit counters in three colors, 18 large rabbit counters in
three colors, and spinner
Number and Operations
Counting and Numbers
Put all the rabbits into the hat. Say a number and ask students to reach
in the hat and pull out that many rabbits. Count the rabbits to
emphasize one-to-one correspondence and sequence of numbers.
Skip Counting
Group the rabbits by twos to work on skip counting. Line up the rabbits
in pairs and count aloud. Try additional skip counting groups such as
threes and fives.
Add it up
Develop addition skills and practice math facts. Ask students to pull a
specific number of rabbits out of the hat (for example, five rabbits).
Make a number sentence of these rabbits, such as two green rabbits plus
three purple rabbits equals five rabbits altogether. Repeat this activity to
work on other numbers and math facts.
Spin, Take and Count
Put all the rabbits into the hat. Place the hat in the center of the table
and place the spinner next to the hat. One student spins any of the
spinners, reaches into the hat, and tries to pull out one rabbit that
matches the color on the spinner. If the color matches, keep the rabbit.
If it does not match, put it back in the hat. Each student repeats this and
takes five turns each. At the end of five rounds, count the rabbits that
each student has. Discuss who had the most rabbits, the fewest rabbits,
or did anyone have the same number of rabbits?
Algebraic Thinking
Sort and Classify
Pull 10 rabbits out of the hat and have students sort the rabbits by color
or by size. Discuss how the rabbits were sorted.
