Bear Math Ideas

 

Teddy Bear Graph

Have the children bring their favorite teddy bears to class and use them to create
 a graph. A characteristic graph is easy to understand.  Characteristics that you might
 consider graphing include color of fur, color of eyes, size, and age.  Choose a
 characteristic to graph and ask each child to answer the matching question
 about his/her bear, such as, "What color is your bear?" "How big is your bear?"
 "What color are the eyes of your bear?" or, "How old is your bear?" Make a separate
 column on the graph for each possible response to the question and complete
 the graph by filling in a square in the appropriate column for each childs answer.

 

The Three Bears

Show the children how to take measurements of 3 towels,
3 chairs, and 3 bowls. Then talk about sets of 3.

 

Graphing Teddy Grahams

Each child gets assortment of Teddy Bear Grahams
 and grid paper to make graph (& then eat!)

 

Estimation Station

Fill a container with Teddy Grahams and have each child guess the number of crackers

 

Teddy Bear Counters

Use Teddy Bear Counters for weighing with balance scales, sorting, and counting.

 

Teddy Bear Sticker Sorting

Pegboard with variety of cards with teddy bear stickers for sorting.

 

Teddy Bear Math

Collect a large group of teddy bears before playing the games below.

Let the children count the total number of teddy bears.

Ask the children to sort the teddy bears by categories (color, size,  those
 wearing bows, etc.).  Then have them count the number of bears in each  category.

Have the children make different sets of teddy bears (five brown bears, three white bears, etc.).
