An educator since 1979, Tammy L. Jones has worked with students from first grade through college. Currently, Tammy is consulting with individual school districts in training teachers on strategies for making content accessible to all learners. Writing integrations as well as literacy connections are foundational in everything Tammy does. A variety of resources are offered for mathematics Pre-K through 12 as well as several that are interdisciplinary. Electronic trainings are also offered.

The number one is the number that beginning mathematics use to build the set of counting numbers, the Natural numbers. Young mathematicians need practice making one more and making one less. The number one is also the multiplicative identity.
Check back every day to download all twelve days of Christmas Mathematics activities. This resource is also good for children with dyslexia and language-based learning deficiencies.
Twelve is the second teen number that beginning mathematicians encounter. Unlike eleven, the number twelve does have a more prominent role in our daily lives. There are usually a dozen eggs in an egg carton at the grocery. There are 12 hours on the face of a clock. In the English Standard Measurement System there are 12 inches in a foot. So today is all about 12.

The number 9 is considered by many to be lucky and to be magical. Students of all ages enjoy working with the number 9 and experiencing its magic firsthand. For younger mathematicians studying the patterns in the 9s column on a numbers chart can reveal some mysteries of the number 9!

The number two is the next number for the 12 Days of Christmas. Students from kindergarten through high school work with the number two in various formats. Today younger mathematicians will be investigating doubles, skip counting by 2, and multiplying by 2.
Two of Everything by Lily Toy Hong is a great piece of children’s literature to connect to these activities.
The number three is the next number for the 12 Days of Christmas. Students from kindergarten through high school work with the number three in one of the most representative of formats – the triangle. For younger mathematicians, studying triangles, composing and decomposing various types of triangles, and classifying triangles will be the focus for Day 3.
Day 7 provides the opportunity for younger mathematicians to investigate patterns on the calendar. There are a series of tasks that can be posed. The current December 2015 calendar is used but this activity can be easily adapted for any calendar month. There is also a place for the children to create their own riddles that can be saved and used later for centers and learning stations.
This activity is also good for students with dyslexia and language-based learning deficiencies. Please review the activity.
Today students of all ages will play will working with one of my favorite mathematical topics of all time: Pascal’s Triangle! Beginning and young mathematicians will be introduced to the triangle. Students can spend a lot of time “tinkering with” the triangle as they discover more and more patterns. The following is an adaptation of one of the chapters in the Primary Activity Packet for Rooster’s Off to See the World, eBook by Tammy L Jones that can be found here on TES USA or TES UK.
This activity is great with students with dyslexia and language-based learning deficiencies. Please leave a review.
Today is all about the wonderful number 10! A few activities are given for you to choose from to meet the needs of your students.
First students can create a Christmas tree using their pattern blocks. There is a triangle template provided for younger mathematicians who would benefit from having a work mat to follow.
