Kindergarten End of the Year Review Math Centers

The year is ending, and it’s time to review the kindergarten math concepts you taught throughout the year. Here are some fun, hands-on activities that keep your students engaged with little prep time. 

You’re tired at the end of the year, and your students are antsy! They’re ready for summer, but you still have a few days left of instruction. Here are some summer-themed activities to review math and still foster math talk and collaboration. 

2D and 3D Shapes 

In Kindergarten, we want students to know the attributes of 2D and 3D shapes using vocabulary words like sides, corners, faces, vertices, and edges. For these activities, students spin and cover the shape that matches the attribute described. 

Shape Builder 

We also want students to know how to compose shapes using other shapes. Students use pattern blocks to build shapes. 

1 More and 1 Less

Students write one more and less than a given number. 

10 More and 10 Less

Students write ten more and less than a given number.

Spin and Count On 

Students count on from a given number. 

Spin and Compare: More Than 

Compare two numbers using more than or greater than. 

Spin and Compare: Less Than

Spin and compare two numbers using less than or fewer than. 

Pick, Build, and Show

Decomposing teen numbers are kindergarteners’ introduction to place value. For this activity, students pick a teen number and show it as ten and some ones. 

Find the Sum 

For this activity, students solve the number sentences, and find and cover the sum on the mat. 

Flip, Solve and Cover

Solve the number sentence and cover the answer. This interactive activity will have students solve to find the missing addend using number bonds. 

Measure Up

Students will compare the length of beach objects. To get students discussion math, have them compare which objects are longer or shorter than others. 

Count and Graph

Students will count, graph, and analyze the data. 

Roll, Add, and Cover

Roll, add, and cover the number. The goal is for students to add numbers with sums within 12.

Roll and Take Away

This is an exciting partner activity. Roll and take away that many objects. Then, they will stack the cubes they collected and compare the length of their cubes using longer and shorter. The person with the longest tower wins. 

Here’s a link to Roll and Take Away.
