This is the perfect resource to help your students make the connection between the math skills they learn in the classroom and their real-life applications. Packed with loads of thematic fun, each activity helps teach national math standards in a developmentally appropriate way.

Contains nine curriculum-based teaching units. Each unit features a different real-life location, such as the playground, the grocery store, or the ice cream shop. To bring the feel of the different locations into the classroom most units begin with directions for setting up a center area that replicates the location.

The various hands-on activities can then be completed by students visiting the center. The activities within each unit are designed to "pull-out" the math that would naturally occur in the featured location. Specific skills are listed at the beginning of each activity so you'll quickly know which skills are being reinforced.

Each unit contains student reproducibles and/or pattern pages used in conjunction with the activities. The activities are designed to encourage your students to use higher-level thinking and problem-solving skills with real-life applications.

Includes activities for:

  • Number and Operations
  • Algebra (classifying, patterns, sorting)
  • Geometry (comparing sizes and shapes, identifying shapes)
  • Measurement (coin recognition and value, size, volume, weight, time)
