St. Patrick’s Day Kindergarten Math Centers | Low-Ink Edition

This low-ink edition uses the same activities as the Berchid color pack, with A, B, and C labels on the clover pattern pieces so they work without color. Set up ten hands-on March math centers for kindergarten. This 82-page US Letter black-and-white PDF includes ten bin labels, ten I Can direction cards, 54 activity sheets, ten recording sheets, setup guidance, an activity index, and five teacher-key pages.

Number sense and patterns: Use 20 tally clip cards for 1–20, match 20 numerals to number words, tallies, and ten-frame representations, fill in 12 skip-count-by-twos strips, and complete 12 AB, ABB, AAB, and ABC patterns with printable clover tiles. Three count, tally, and graph mats let students show the same total in two ways.

Operations, shapes, and time: Match 40 addition expressions to 20 sum pots, solve 20 subtraction cards on a 0–10 number line, complete 20 number comparisons using <, >, and =, clip the straight-side counts on 12 shape cards, and match analog, digital, and written times for all 12 hours. Each center has five follow-up prompts on its recording sheet.

Print selected pages in black and white at actual size. Cut labels and pieces along dashed outlines. Use clothespins for clip cards and counters if needed for addition. Laminate or place the write-and-wipe cards in sleeves for use with dry-erase markers. The teacher keys list activity answers and recording responses for morning tubs, small groups, or guided math rotations.
