Penguin Pals!! Balancing Addition Facts

Heeeellllllooooooo!! Man, It's already December?? What happened??? I have been having some technical issues with my computers at home and at school so I've been a little long in posting updates but I'm back with a new activity on balancing facts! As I'm sure you are aware, I LOVE Penguins!!!!!!!!!!! They are so stinkin' adorable!! Can't get enough. So I made Penguin Pals! The kiddos LOVED this activity. I made a giant penguin for use on the floor as a whole group lesson:  I then made numbers and plus signs on construction paper. Each child received a recording page: and we began! Everyone got a chance to choose a fact and try to balance it. We kept track on our recording pages and used our personal workmats later on to reinforce the whole group activity.  They had a blast.  I also placed a smaller version in the centers.  Like this activity? Think your class would benefit? Then check it out in my TpT store {HERE} and happy balancing!!
