Five Kindergarten Math Resources

by Shannon on 6.18.09

mathDid you know that in 1992 Mattel released Teen Talk Barbie who spoke a number of phrases including “Math class is tough!”? Well, that doll was recalled and we all now know from Danica McKellar that math is neither tough, nor does it suck. (I really love Danica. Loved The Wonder Years and love her. She’s way cool.)

Since my daughter is only 4 1/2, I can’t yet get her the book Math Doesn’t Suck, but I can work with her on some fun kindergarten math activities.

  • Maths Is Fun: We love the picture addition worksheets — a great way to introduce basic addition to your child.
  • Number Time:Unique math worksheets including number ladders, number stories, sequencing, and more.
  • SoftSchools: Generate your own worksheets and online games, personalized with your child’s name.
  • Kindergarten Math: Lots of simple games your child can play online.
  • HomeschoolMath.net: Suggests games, activities, worksheets and goals for kindergarten math. The concepts presented here seemed easy for kindergarten level, so this article may also suitable for preschool math.

Yet another reason that Barbie and the corporate toy monoliths DO suck. But you’re right, McKellar rocks. And although math ed sucks, math doesn’t. It’s an amazing, romantic, creative and fun endeavor.
