How about some mats based on stories you might be reading in your classroom. You can use them for addition and subtraction stories that allow students the opportunity to retell events and review important story
elements. I love this idea and it will be great for building their language. Remember that mats can also be used for number sense activities. If you would like these grab them here. My head is spinning... The Very Hungry Caterpillar would be precious and all the foods he likes to eat, Pete the Cat and all of the shoes he might find, etc.
