Building Block Fun

We have had indoor recess after indoor recess and I've noticed that my students have a particular interest in 'building 'this year.  Perhaps it's the new Lego movie coming out or I have a room full of future engineers ;)

In either case, I have a new math station and a freebie to share with you tonight.

First, the new station.  It requires students to work with a partner or small group.  They will roll a dice, add ten and cover the number.  To allow for differentiation I have included a counting on card.  I will have students place the dice on the card then use the ten frame of building blocks to count on.

As you can see there is an I can card included to build student independence and every page is included in color and black & white.

You can find this math station at my TPT store HERE.

Now how about that freebie I mentioned?  I saw a picture on Pinterest of a building block board game and it sparked an idea so I thought I would share with you :)

Students spin the spinner and move up the board following the directions as they travel.  (The building possibilities are endless with just the spinner.)

I have included an I can... card to keep students in task.

The goal is to build the highest tower.

Now, let's see who's spending a quiet Friday night at home.  I'll send a copy of my Adding 10 activity to the first 3 people who comment on this post :)
