Dinosaur Math Ideas
Counting/Sorting
Lots of
plastic easter eggs filled with tiny dinosaurs
Place on table, let children hatch eggs, and count/sort dinosaurs
Dino Grouping
Have a large selection of plastic dinosaurs in a pile. Have the children
work out a way to put these dinosaurs into groups. for example: all the
long tails or all the ones with spikes, etc. They can come up with great
ideas.
How Many Dinosaurs Will Hatch?
Using plastic Easter eggs, put small dino figures or construction paper
cutouts. Use it as an adding game, a number recognition, or a sorting activity.
Dino Vote!
Vote for favorite dinosaur. Count the votes. You can vote
by clipping a
clamp type clothespin on a picture or word
which you are voting for. Give a few choices.
Dinosaur Math
The children pair up and measure each other with small dinosaurs as they
lay on the
floor. They fill out a page that says, "I am ____dinosaurs long."
How Many Children Does It
Take To Fill
T-Rex's Mouth?
Did you know that a T-Rex could open its mouth 10 feet long?
Place some paper on
the floor and measure out 10 feet.
How many children does it take to fill up the
dinosaur's mouth?
