Children can learn numbers 0-20 as they count gold coins for St. Patrick’s Day with this FREE printable Pot of Gold 10-Frames math activity.
Need a St. Patrick’s Day math activity for your preschooler or kindergartner? You’re in luck because I have a set of Pot of Gold 10-Frame Number Cards and Counting Mats with numbers 0-20. The activity is easy to prep,
The activity includes 2 ways to do the activity (level 1, and level 2). Of course, you are always welcome to tailor the activity to suit your student(s). I try to give you lots of options so you can use the activity to teach counting, numbers, one-to-one correspondence and subitizing (recognizing an amount without having to count each item). The Counting Mats come in 3 versions, one with an empty 10-frame, one with numbers on the 10-frame, and one with numbers to trace on the 10-frame.

My littlest guy, Little Pup (age 3), thought this math activity was so inviting once he saw the gold coins and brightly colored Pot of Gold 10-frames counting cards. He LOVED playing with the gold coins so when I first introduced him to the activity I let him explore the materials before guiding him through the activity. This allowed him time to feed his curiosity so when it was time to start learning he could focus better.
