Natural materials math
Time: 10-15 minutes
Materials: None
Activity: Have kids collect quite a few of any natural material (e.g. leaves, rocks, sticks, flowers). Have the kids represent numbers (e.g. put out 3 leaves) or simple addition and subtraction problems (e.g. put out four leaves, take away 2, how many are left). Alternately, flip the activity and the instructor puts out a number of objects and the kids name the numeral or verbally work through the math.
