Counting Trees

Materials Needed:
 Leaves (store bought or handmade)
 Posterboard/cardstock
 Marker
  Tree templates (tree top and tree trunk)

What to Do:
  Using templates (tree top and tree trunk), trace trees on posterboard/cardstock and cut out. Make as many trees as needed for mathematical goals.
 Label the trees with a numeral, number word or dots depending on age group or goals and provide children with leaves.
 Invite children to identify the numbers and count out the leaves to match the number.
