Things That Go “Bump” In The Classroom
Ah, Bump, a true favorite in our class! Once Upon a Learning Adventure provides this version as part of a free four-pack of math small group games.
Bump is a fun counting game for working on one-to-one correspondence, numeral identification and connecting numeral to quantity.
Children play the game in pairs, so you will need one game sheet, two six-sided dice and 12 linking cubes in each of two colors for each twosome. (We recommend laminating several copies of the game sheet because this game will surely be popular!)
So many squeals of joy come out of this game — the kiddos love “bumping” each other off a number. Additionally, once they have the game’s directions mastered, kiddos can pair up and play it independently.

Print and Drive Number Rhymes
We adore the Print and Drive Number Rhymes freebie from Preschool Mom — another fun, hands-on way to teach numbers in small groups or at independent exploration centers.
Combining action with learning, preschoolers use vehicles to drive along roads shaped like the numbers 1-10. This reinforces concepts of numeral recognition and counting.
And this set comes with a bonus: each number has its own cute rhyme that helps children remember how to write it.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you though — use of this fun freebie may cause spontaneous “Vrooms!” to erupt in your classroom!

Fingerprint Fishies Counting
Our Pre-K kiddos love small group time. This is when we work on Math or Literacy activities in a more focused setting. And this freebie from Playdough to Plato combines both counting and painting into one adorable preschool learning game.
This activity works on counting 1-10, one-to-one correspondence, connecting numeral to quantity and numeral identification. (And it involves paint! It’s practically perfect in every way.) This was truly a hit in our classroom!
