A Sequence Puzzle Students Won’t “Run Away” From!
This sequence puzzle is a great way to combine literature and mathematics. Students will practice both fine motor and numeracy skills as they cut out the puzzle pieces and enjoy sequencing numbers 1 – 10, revealing a picture of the gingerbread man and a hungry fox.
This sequence puzzle works well in small groups, centers, or as independent practice. We have provided it in two formats so you can choose how to use it in your classroom.
- Solved: Use this version if you would like your students to color the picture before cutting it apart and mixing the numbers up.
- Unsolved: Use this version if you are mainly interested in this activity as a number sequencing and small motor exercise.
