Clip cards are a great way to practice
basic addition
or subtraction facts. There’s an added mystery element to them that
make them fun and interactive for kids who are developing their
number and addition skills. You can also make these cards
self-correcting cards by placing a colored dot sticker at the back so
they can clip and check. They are so much fun!

Print as many cards as you will need
for your group of students. Preferable print on cardstock then
laminate and cut them up. There are 36 cards in the set. You can
totally differentiate the cards according to the students’
abilities. Keep the addition
to five or ten in one set and use them accordingly.
Valentine’s Day Addition Clip Cards
Clip cards make a
fun math activity and a great way to start working on addition
skills. The cards have the equation at the top and then three number
choices at the bottom. There are four cards per page to make it
easier on printing and setting up. Start by getting the kids to work
on one card at a time. I like placing dot stickers at the back of
each card for an easy self-correcting task. I find that sometimes,
the kids will look for the stickers at the back though so make sure
that they don’t particularly know this until they’ve clipped all
their cards. 😉
With these cards, you can totally use
manipulatives like math unifix cubes or counters to have the kids
show their numbers at the top with each card as they clip. Get the
kids to have each number in the equation in a certain color. This
definitely helps the kids visualise the equation in their minds as
they work out their answer.

So adorable and educational kids will love learning math this way
ReplyDeleteEin Kumpel hat mir neulich von einer Seite erzählt, die echt frischen Wind in die Abendslot-Routine bringt. Zuerst war ich skeptisch, weil ich eine Pechsträhne hatte, aber die Aufmachung hat mich dann doch neugierig gemacht. Besonders die schnellen Ladezeiten und das Design der Lobby haben mich direkt abgeholt, also habe ich mich registriert und die ersten Runden gedreht. Ich habe mein Glück bei sweetyspin versucht, wo die saftigen Willkommensboni für neue Spieler in Deutschland den Einstieg extrem versüßen. Nach ein paar Spins bei Gates of Olympus kam endlich das Glück zurück und die Multiplikatoren schossen in die Höhe. Das visuelle Gewitter bei den Freispielen war absolut erstklassig und hat für einen richtigen Adrenalinkick gesorgt. Ich werde definitiv öfter vorbeischauen, wenn ich eine kleine Auszeit vom Alltag brauche.
