Using a number of the day activity can provide your students with number sense practice on a daily basis.
Give students a daily dose of place value practice with these free number sense pages!
These are another free resource from The Curriculum Corner.
Use these printables to create an easy morning or math center.
We have made this one easy to differentiate!
There are three forms to choose the one that is just right for your students.
Some options for using these daily number activities include:
- Morning entry task – students can complete as they enter the room each day
- Math center – this could be a daily or weekly math center
- Small group practice – for students who need guidance, a number of the day activity might be a part of your instruction in small groups
You know your students best! Number of the day activities can provide meaningful number sense practice for your students who need it. As students master skills, we like to phase out how often students complete this activity.
For some students, this type of activity might become busy work. This is always when we work to find something new that will fit their needs!
You might choose to give students a number or let students use the number cards we created.
You can download the Number Cards here:
Number Cards – these cards are in color and ready to be printed and laminated.
Choose a card to place at the center or let students pick a card from a basket. Each set is in a different color for easy sorting.
Numbers cards 1 – 10 Number cards 11 – 99 Number cards 100 – 309
You can download the Number of the Day Recording Sheets here:
Beginning # of the Day (for numbers 1 – 10) Foundational skills – perfect for preschool and kindergarten
1st grade # of the Day (for numbers 11 – 99)
2nd grade # of the Day (for 100 up)

Love it! We do these in 3rd grade. If you make one for 3rd grade or above, may I suggest keeping the hundreds, tens, ones boxes and adding “another way to show the number with hundreds, tens, and ones”. This is huge on 3rd grade ISTEP and the kids always get confused by it. We start it 2nd semester so they are more prepared. Also, making one with thousands. 🙂

Do you happened to have the common core checklist for 7th and 8th grade math? Upcoming school year is my first year teaching, and I’m scared as to how I’m going to implement it…. Much appreciated if you have or know where I would be able to get the checklist…
Thanks,
Kim

Hi Kim! Here is the link to the 7th and 8th grade checklists. It’s on our 456 website, but since we are just starting to get content on that site, you may not have been able to locate it. THANKS! Good luck in your first year of teaching!
