Hi there and happy SUMMER! Ok please ignore the fact that I have not blogged in like forever 😀 because this post is timely and I am in summer bargaining and creating mode and just had to share!
This
cute math center was created for only $3 and put together in about 15
minutes!
I
found these cute plastic mini bubblegum machines at the Dollar Tree in the
seasonal isle and then headed over the to
craft section and got 2 packs of wooden beads to use as the “bubblegum”.
I think plastic or glass marbles would work
as well but they didn't have those at my dollar tree so I used the large and medium sized wooden beads
from the pack. The blue and green were too dark but I am not complaining - a $3 math center is NOT bad! Bonus - I will keep all the small
beads to use for other projects during the school year so they wont go to
waste!
I
used a sharpie to write numbers 1-10 on the beads and that was that! The top of the meachine comes off easily so kids can clean
up the bubble after they complete the worksheet.
Click on the worksheet to go to my TPT store and grab a copy of this freebie - then head to Dollar Tree and snag these goodies!!
I love your Dollar Tree Bubblegum Math Center idea! It's a fantastic and budget-friendly way to make learning engaging for young students. Your creativity in using affordable materials to create meaningful educational activities is truly inspiring.
