Maths Simple Addition, Subtraction, Patterning and Sequencing:
One of the best ways to help young children understand simple maths problems is through hands-on activities. With our free Valentine's Day worksheets, students will have the opportunity to practice basic addition and subtraction using heart-themed problems. To make the activity even more engaging, try using heart-shaped manipulatives such as stickers, candy or even cut-out paper hearts.
Patterning is a great way to introduce the concept of 'what comes next' in the sequence.
Here students are asked to count, record the number and indicate which group is bigger. A simple task that can be reproduced with concrete items in the classroom.
Literacy Basics:
Reading and writing are two of the most important skills that children will develop in their early years. Sequencing sentences is a great way to build confidence in the writing skills of your students. This sheet shows how students will sequence the sentence by looking for context clues such as full stops and capital letters. Then they will copy the sentence.
