Pete the cat subtraction kindergarten

Pete the Cat Subtraction with Buttons- AWESOME FREEBIE here, with Pete themed storymats, a worksheet, 16 task cards, and a recording sheet.

We have been working on subtraction for the last few weeks. I am just starting to discover the Pete The Cat books (I know I am WAY late to the game!!) This week we read Pete The Cat and His 4 Groovy Buttons. I found this great freebie from the aptly named Peterson's Pad. I pulled out my button math manipulatives and let the kids model the word problems using the buttons. Next we made this cute craft. I let them decide how many of Pete's buttons were going to pop off and they wrote the number…

I am planning to use Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons to create subtraction word problems. My students will use this work mat to draw and write their subtraction sentence. Later in the week, we'll make a class book. Click image to get yours. Happy Teaching and Learning!

Kids will have fun practicing math with this super cute, FREE Pete The Cat Math Game for Kindergarten age kids.

Practice sorting, counting, and subtraction using buttons to go along with Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons.

You know how every once in a while you'll have a lesson that just goes perfectly! The kids are all engaged and well behaved, and everything just clicks. Well, I finally had that happen today. I didn't think it would happen this year with the class I have especially this close to Halloween but it did!!! It also helped that I had 4 absent so that brought my total down to 27.
