We've been doing lots of partner games lately in math with pattern matching and determining if something has more, less. or the same amount as another group. One of the most common ways we do this is to draw a line down the middle of our desks. One partner turns their back while the other partner makes a pattern on one side of the line. When they are ready, the other partner turns back and matches their pattern on the other side. This helps work on counting skills, matching up one-to-one, patterning, and number recognition. I switch up the type of manipulative that we use to keep it interesting and they can always use higher numbers to make it more difficult.
It's simple, but it works on so much!
