Count Your Lucky Stars!
My students still need practice counting and writing 2 digit numbers so I made this math station and used symbols of our country. I used grids because our program really emphasizes 10 + 1, 2, or 3 more.The recording sheet is in the upper left hand corner. I should make more than one set of these cards but this took me a long time to put together.
Some hints: I used a star punch to make the stars in various colors and scrapbooking chalk to color Obama and the Liberty Bell.
A big shout-out goes to Mrs. Lee at Mrs. Lee's Kindergarten. She inspired me to create this activity. If you have not seen her site what are you waiting for? She's on my blogroll because I love how she thinks!
Okay I am giving this to you so... grab it here. Now please leave a comment and follow me as a new friend. If you are a blogger you can have my button too!

Hi Fran,
Thank you for sharing this great idea! I have some kinder friends who really struggle with two digit numbers, especially in the teens! I am going to make this today to use in our new round of centers which starts tomorrow. I also love your little flag book. They are both great resources!
Thank you!!!
Fran,
I love this math idea. Everything you make is awesome!
This is also a challenge for my kids as well. I love Mrs. Lee as well as your blog. You both have re-ignited my creativity. Have you ever used the Cricut Expression? It is wonderful and helpful in the classroom. Thanks for sharing. God bless.

Wow! Love this idea. Thanks so much!
wow! Love this idea - Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing this! I'm going to use it as a Read the Room for math. My students love reading the room and this is perfect for math-- and to teach the usa symbols across all subjects! I plan to add stars and laminate the sheet then post them around the room in different places and the students will have to find the picture and count the stars, then record it on the recording sheet.
