Digital Counting Activities Using Google Slides™ and Seesaw
During this time of school closures, I’ve been working hard to create resources that are helpful to teachers and parents. I’ve been creating printable resources, but I know that not everyone has access to a printer. I am just starting to create digital resources, using Google Slides™, right now and I’m thrilled to share my first activity with you. This resource has digital counting activities, which is perfect for the preschool and kindergarten age.
The file has 21 slides working on counting, identifying numbers, one-to-one correspondence, ten frames, and showing numbers. Students will be able to move the circles or other moveable clip art to complete the tasks.
You can use these free Google Slides if you have the Internet and a Google account. If you are a teacher, you can assign this activity in your Google Classroom. If you’re new to Google Classroom and digital activities, this video will be helpful to watch.
The activities can be used on a computer, Chromebook, or tablet. If you use a tablet, you will need to have the Google Slides app (which is free).
If you’d like to download this activity, just click below.
>>> Counting Activities<<<
This will be a PDF that explains more about Google Slides and also will give you a link to the activity.
I made a quick video that explains exactly how to get the Google Slides added to your Drive.
The main thing to remember is to make sure you are not in presentation mode. It should open up in ‘edit’ mode, which is what you want. If you can’t move the clip art, check to make sure you’re not in the presentation mode.
I hope you enjoy this free resource!
Thanks!!
Thank you so much for these freebies.
Thank You! I love the money activity.
Thank you so much for making this and then sharing it for FREE! Your whole website is brilliant!
HI Angela and thank you so much for sharing. I have a question regarding the activities in Seesaw I saved the activity in my seesaw library so I can assign it to my Preschool class. However, when I tried to assign it, all 20 slides are being assigned. It there a way to to change this so I am only assigning 1-2 activities at a time?
Thank so much,
Laurie E
You are right. I did group them together and since I’m new to this I didn’t realize this would be a lot for a student. I will work on breaking them into smaller activities. Thank you so much for the feedback!
Hi,
I’m brand new to using Google Classroom! Once I choose Google Slides and it opens, I make a copy and then what do I do?
Do I attach it as an email for each student? I love your activities and I know my kinder class will too!
Thank you 🙏💕
You can add it to your Google Classroom and make it an assignment for all the students. I hope that helps!
Hi Angela,
I love this project, thank you so much for making it free.
Just wondering, I saved this to my drive, what is the best way to assign it to my students in Classroom?
Thank you so much,
Kim
You’re welcome! Yes, after you save it to your drive, upload it to Google Classroom. Then you can select ‘make a copy for each student’ in the dropdown section. Then just click assign and all the students will have access to it. Hope that helps!
I can not add extensions to my lap top. It is the district I work for and it isn’t allowed.
I’m sorry! Do you mean you can’t add the Google drive extension app?
I am not understanding how to get to the site. I would love to incorporate them in my e learning activities
Hi Laurie! The link for the Google Slides and the Seesaw activities are inside the PDF, which is linked in the post. Once you open the PDF, just go to the last page and click on the picture or the words and it will take you to the file.
Thank you so mych!
You are such a blessing. May God bless you and give you ease. 💐💐💐
