Adding Up Summer Treats

Is it hot enough outside for you? It's SO hot here today that I think it's the perfect day to stay inside and enjoy the air conditioning - and maybe even make some popsicles! Here's a fun little game for your students to practice adding up summer treats. It would make a perfect math work station!


Students pick a card with an addition problem, solve it with manipulatives, and then find the card with the answer. If you picked up any pocket charts or popsicle/ice cream erasers at Target then this is the perfect way to get some use out of them! Don't worry, if you didn't buy those erasers I included some counters on the last page of the game.

  4. If any of you really want those erasers and your Target doesn't have them, I saw them at Party City last time I was there. I am mini eraser obsessed and Target and Party City always have cute seasonal ones to use for classroom games!

  5. Meredith,
    I just found your blog today and I spent the last couple of hours being amazed by tour ideas! Thanks for sharing! I'm just a "teacher in waiting" (waiting on a teaching position to open up so I could have a chance at getting it!). I finished my teacher ed program in May and there are NO jobs in a 3 county area around here! But, enough whining on my part! I appreciate you sharing all your ideas and I'm sure it won't be long till you have 100's of followers. I know I am one of them!

  7. Thanks Lori-you are too kind! Good luck with your job search-I know there are not many teaching jobs available these days. There are SO many good ideas out there on the internet-just keep filing them away and eventually you will get to put them to good use in your own classroom!
