Kindergarten Basic Operations Projects

Help your students practice decomposing numbers to 10 and writing the corresponding addition number sentences. This is a fun and engaging craft that gives students chances to write turn around facts and finding ways to make numbers to 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 using addition.

Give your students practice writing number sentences to match a picture using these no prep, print and go, cute winter penguins. First, students will practice decomposing numbers to ten by coloring the fish with 2 different colors. Students will then practice the commutative property and writing equations to match pictures by writing the equation that matches their penguin's belly, along with the turn around fact. This file includes 6 different penguin bellies full of either 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 fish. There are also 3 different penguin wings included for differentiation- no guides, line and box guides, or symbols already written.

This is a great project before or after winter break and looks great hanging on a bulletin board or up in the hallway!

Addition scarecrow is a fun activity to reinforce addition vocabulary, representing addition in multiple ways, and using fact family triangles. This activity is perfect for fine motor sills as well.

Help your students practice writing addition and subtraction sentences in a fact family by creating colorful butterflies. This is a fun and engaging craft that gives students chances to solve for missing numbers, identify the whole number and parts, and write subtraction and addition equations using a set of numbers.

This printable, differentiated craft includes:

• A number bond and equations page differentiated with symbols or missing symbols. Further differentiate by giving students two numbers in their number bond and challenge them to find the missing number
• Butterfly bodies with fact family numbers already written, blank bodies, and bodies with a space to write your own numbers
• Butterfly wings print on to colored cardstock for bright butterflies, or onto white paper for students to color
• Butterfly wing spots with spaces for students to write the addition and subtraction equations that match the numbers. Differentiated with symbols or missing symbols

This is a great project before or after spring break and looks great hanging on a bulletin board or up in the hallway!
