FREE MATH LESSON - “Common Core Math Tools K-3 - SPINNERS!”

by Debbie Bryant
Kindergarten - 3rd Grade


42 full-page, full-color double spinners! Download the free preview for 2 free bonus spinners!

Use as games and practice by themselves or put with your own games instead of dice.

For these spinners you can use small or large, plain or colored paper clips. You have the kids lay the paper clip over the dot in the center of the spinner, then put the tip of their pencil on the dot (inside the paper clip) and simply flick the clip with their finger so it spins around the pencil.

This 46-page pack includes:

-A full page introduction to the wonderful world of spinners.

-A full page of primary math game ideas using only the spinners!

-Every spinner page shows directions with a picture and words.

-22 spinners with numbers from 0-9

-5 spinners with number words zero-nine

-5 coin spinners

-5 clock spinners

-3 blank spinners

-1 shapes spinner and a +1,-1,+2,-2,+10,-10 spinner

I left the hands off the clocks so you could put what you are working on - hour, half-hour, 5 minutes, etc. I have left some blank space on each page if you want to write your own "title" and/or directions for games.

Why I love spinners:

1. They fit into an envelope game. Add a few paper clips, and the kids have everything they need for the game in one place.

2. They show numerals, not dots. Dots are great for some things, but not for everything. You can spin for a one digit number, spin again to make a 2 digit number, spin again for a 3 digit number, etc.

3. You can copy them and send them home with a couple of paper clips for kids to use for homework or games. No need to search at home for dice!

4. There are 25 unique designs - kids like variety!

5. Blank spinners are included for you to personalize to a specific skill you are working on such as fractions or measurement.

Happy Spinning!
