Penguin Fact Families

Here's a penguin math craft that we did last week while studying penguins and reading Tacky!  Click here to read more about that!

Students choose a fact family and write the 4 problems (I did not allow doubles facts for this!  They also wrote on scrap paper first, so that I knew they had all the right numbers.  I allowed them to choose ANY family they could figure out---but said to stay under 100, because there was no way they'd fit those numbers on the snowballs!)  They write the 3 numbers in the big snowball at the top and the addition and subtraction on the smaller side ones.  It looks as though the penguin is juggling them! :)  (I also have my kiddos have the addition on one side and the subtraction on the other, but you don't have to)  Click {HERE} for the templates.

**It's nothing fancy.  I made tracers with cardstock for them to trace their own.  (Also teaches patience and sharing!!)**

{This is a kid example.  I have no idea where the picture for mine is!}

The scarf is just cut however they like.  I have them have the same color feet for fun :)

Here's the bulletin board.  I used my Cameo to make the letters!  It was my first project for it!!
