Fall Math Activity – Fall Measurement Cards for Preschool – Free Printable

Fall math centers activity with free printable from no time for flash cardsAre you getting ready for the school year yet? This fall math activity for preschool works on so many skills. Non-standard measurement is the first way we teach children to measure things, at first they will compare what is longer or shorter looking at how long the stack of Unifix cubes is (or whatever non-standard unit you are using) but soon they will start counting the cubes, and then as their math abilities like number recognition and number order they will be ready for standard measurement. You will see that some of your students will count the Unifix cubes as they go and others won’t. If this is too simple for a student have them estimate the number of cubes needed and then measure to see the result.

Gather your materials. You will need the free printable fall measurement cards ( <–click to download), scissors, and some unifix cubes. I would also highly suggest a laminator and a tray to present the invitation to measure on.

Laminate. I laminate almost anything made of paper that I want to use with children more than once. I love my laminator!

I like making sure to separate the Unifix cubes when I offer the activity to students. This naturally encourages them to count, and it works on those fine motor skills too. I got these unifix cubes on Amazon here.

My 7-year-old was curious about what I was making and then asked to play.
