• Button Math Art: 47 Buttons, Card-stock, Glue

1. Have your child divide the buttons into a pile of 23 and a pile of 24.
2. Then they can make the number 23 and 24 with the buttons and glue them onto the card stock.
3. Before they glue them on you can quiz your child.  Ask them if I have 12 buttons here and 4 buttons here, how many does that make.  Show them with the buttons.  Visual aids work really well with kids and helps them understand better.  If there are colored buttons, you can ask them how many blue buttons or red buttons are there.  Make a couple vertical rows, with one row having less buttons in it, and ask them which one has more buttons. Now try it horizontal.
