Build counting fluency in your kindergartners with this counting and grouping timed learning game. Provide various groups of objects to count such as a clear plastic bag filled with 7 beans or a cup with 5 pennies. There are many other examples included in the activity which are easy to find in a kindergarten classroom. Using an egg timer, have a small group of class members sort the groups of objects by quantity. This game can be used during a math center without teacher supervision, but will need to be explained and modeled beforehand. Learners should be instructed to count the objects in groups and to not remove them from their container. A simple and fun learning game that will be a class favorite in no time.
