Spring Math Centers Skills

Our March, April, and May Math Centers feature a variety of activities to practice important math skills. All the math centers can be printed for in-person learning, or use the digital version with Google Slides, SeeSaw, or Powerpoint to assign them digitally:

  • comparing numbers
  • counting money
  • 2 and 3 digit addition and subtraction (with and without regrouping)
  • geometry (symmetry, shape building, fractions)
  • telling time
  • place value
  • graphing
  • skip counting
  • And so much more!

Check out our list of activities below to see how to use some of these centers in your 1st or 2nd grade classroom.

Spring COMPARING NUMBERS Math Centers

Practice comparing numbers from 1-100, identifying place value, and using greater than, less than symbols with these spring math centers!


Spring MONEY Math Centers

These money math centers bring seasonal fun to counting! Students calculate totals to buy garden supplies, match money amounts to Easter eggs, and clip the correct amount in a St. Patrick’s Day-themed activity—no writing needed!


Spring 2 & 3 DIGIT ADDITION & SUBTRACTION Centers

Make math fact practice fun with these spring-themed centers! Students add three numbers, solve and record sums, and hunt for hidden puzzle pieces in a math scavenger hunt.


Spring GEOMETRY Centers

These hands-on math centers make geometry fun! Students build shapes on geoboards or draw them on a recording sheet and create symmetrical designs using pattern blocks.


Spring TELLING TIME Math Centers

Students will practice telling time by identifying hours and half-hours on digital and analog clocks. In one activity, they’ll match clock faces to guide a rabbit to the carrot patch.
