Spring Showers {Free Printable}

Looking outside, it looks like spring.  It feels like spring.  It must be spring.  We're close enough to spring to call it spring, right? Weather and the seasonal changes are extremely relevant in our home lately, so I made this printable, and I want to share it with you as a FREE printable!
I am a big fan of having one activity that can be used to teach multiple objectives. It’s a big perk, if that activity will grow with my child & I can use it at multiple stages of cognitive development. And if it is seasonally exciting, well then I. Am. Sold. This is one of those activities, and I have it for you today FREE!  Let me share with you all of the ways we use this in our home.
First get the FREE download, print, & laminate (or put into a page protector).  We like to use small blue glass beads or pom poms to represent raindrops. You could also use brown buttons as “mud.”
Roll. Use foam dice to roll a number in the top 2 boxes. If your child is not counting above 6 yet, you can use a single dice.
Add. Ask your child to count up the dots, or to add them together for a sum. If you’re past addition, try subtraction. Comparisons also work great here (write greater than or less than on the sheet, or “write the number of the dice with more dots”).
Write. Your child could write the sum as a digit or a word, both numbers presented on each dice, or trace the digit or word. We use dry erase markers since they erase well on the laminated material.
Count. Using manipulatives, get your child to count out the number that was presented on the dice.
Fun. Enjoy!!!!

If you think that your little one would enjoy learning with this, get your copy here for FREE!
