Odd and Even Numbers

If you’re looking for some more odd and even activities to do with your students, we’ve done some searching for you…

1. Create a scavenger hunt around the classroom or school, where students search for numbers and determine if they are odd or even.
2. Number line walk – draw a number line on the floor or use a large number line poster. Call out numbers, and students must walk and stand in the correct position to indicate if it’s odd or even.
3. Create patterns on the board or use manipulatives, where students have to identify the pattern and continue it using odd or even numbers.
4. Create a foldable mini booklet for odd and even numbers using this printable template.
