Day 1

Counting up to 100

Gather a collection of objects. These could be toys, buttons, beans, toothpicks.  Ask your child to count them. If they count by 1s (ex. 1, 2, 3, 4, …), then ask them to count them by 2s, 5s or 10s.  

Equality

Have your child choose a number from 1 to 20 and ask them to write as many different equations as possible for that number. 

For example, for the number 13, they would write the following: 

13 = 1 + 12, 

13 = 2 + 11, 

13 = 3 + 10, and so on. 

Day 2

Make 10

Use your fingers to show your child a number from 1 to 10.  Ask your child to tell the number needed to make 10. For example, if you hold up two fingers, your child would say “eight”.

Day 3

Who Has More Game (Adding and Comparing Numbers)

Materials: 2 dice, 24 toothpicks (Or other “counters,” such as: beans, buttons, etc.)

On a turn, a player rolls the dice and adds the numbers shown together.  The player then takes that many toothpicks (“counters”). The next player then does the same.  The player with the greatest number of toothpicks wins. Play several rounds and use tallies to keep track of who wins the most rounds.
