Valentine’s Day Counting Activities 

Are you on the hunt for fun Valentine’s Day activities? We’ve got a fun memory game to help your students fall in love with maths and one-to one correspondence. This hands-on activity resource will have students look at and counting groups of objects up to twenty.

How to Play our Valentine’s Day Maths Game

Memory is a game that’s easy to pick up but hard to put down.

It’s simple: Turn all the cards face down. Then, flip over two cards and try to match the pictures and numbers. If they match, keep them! If not, turn them back over and continue playing until all the cards are matched. The first player to find all their matches wins!

With this resource download, students will celebrate Valentine’s Day and develop their counting and number recognition skills.
