April has me thinking Spring, so I have been working on some spring/bug/garden themed activities. One of the first ones I made was this Spring Butterfly Math Spinner Game. The one we made for St. Patrick's worked well for us and I'll probably continue to make them for various seasons/holidays throughout this year.
I made sheets for both addition (5-9s) and subtraction (5-10s). The subtraction is still kind of a stretch for him, but we can always get out an abacus to help. Also, I wanted this one set of printables to be able to last us a year or two.
Initially, I presented it like this, with just one color of beads for him to complete on his own. I taped one of these spinners to a CD case and then can just switch out the spinner inside (I actually just reused the spinner I made for his St. Patrick's spinner game).
He ended up wanting to play together, so I switched it to this setup. We each had the same number of gems and we took turns spinning and placing gems, trying to see who could run out first.
