Free Counting Puzzles and A Cyber Sale

Here's a fun way to help the kids reinforce their counting skills. By using these fun puzzles the kids will be using their fine motor skills to make a picture in combination with practicing their math skills of counting (number sequence).


Math Counting Puzzles
Children put the puzzle pieces into the proper number sequence. The puzzles are self-correcting in that the proper number sequence will reveal a picture. For these puzzles, the pictures revealed will be some woodland animals.

There are 6 puzzles in this set with different number sequences so that you can decide which number sequence your students need to work on. Each puzzle has 10 pieces.

The number sequences are:
Counting by 1s - Numbers 1-10
Counting by 1s - Numbers 11-20
Counting by 1s - Numbers 21-30
Counting by 2s - Numbers 2-20
Counting by 5s - Numbers 5-50
Counting by 10s - Numbers 10-100

All you need to do is print the puzzles, cut into strips, and laminate if desired. I like to print them on photo paper or card stock.

You can download these puzzles for free from my TpT Shop.  Just click on the picture above! :)

Also if you LOVE a SALE and  need some more teaching resources, Teachers Pay Teachers is having a huge Cyber Sale on Monday and Tuesday (November 28-29). Don't forget to use the Code CYBER2016 to get an extra 10% off  lots of products which will already be on sale!
