Abracadabra! In this activity, children take turns using their “magic trick” (counting skills) to figure out what number is on a facedown counting card.
Place number cards face down in numerical order. One child points to any card and the other child—the magician—uses their magic counting skills to figure out what number it is without turning the cards over. Then, flip the card over so children can see if they are correct. Leave the card facing up so the next child counts on to find the next number. For example, if a 3 is turned over and the next facedown card that a student points to is a 4, the student can count on from 3 instead of starting at 1.

One child points to any card and the other child—the magician—uses their magic counting skills to figure out what number it is without turning the cards over. Then, flip the card over so children can see if they are correct. Place the card face down again. Have children switch roles and repeat with another card.
Children add and remove core units from a pattern to fill the spaces on a board.
Compare the relative length of body parts to other objects using words such as longer or shorter.
Children figure out the sorting rule based on pictures and then sort objects as quickly as possible.
One child hides some counters from a small set, and a second child estimates how many were hidden.
Compare the weights of objects using a balance and then sort the objects into two groups
based on their weights.

Work together to create a unique building that includes a certain number of features, such as stairs, towers, doors.
Roll a die to determine how many blocks to add to a tower. Keep going until the tower falls over.
Practice symmetry by placing blocks on one side of a line to create a mirror image of the blocks on the other side of the line.
