I used thick cardboard to write numbers 21-26 on the front and back.
I filled my clear, plastic heart (from the heavenly dollar bin at Target), with pom poms and different beads.
Then I closed it up. I added a couple of pieces of tape on the sides so it wouldn't fall apart.
Once the hearts were made, I used my 30 frame mat and worksheet from two different projects we did in February. The students would shake the heart (which they loved!!!), spot a number and write it on their paper.After the number was written down, they used the 30 frame mat to count out that same number of buttons. This was great because I could sit with them while they were counting and make sure they were counting correctly.
What a cute idea! Thank you for sharing it!
