Butterfly Counting Clip Cards

Prepare the Butterfly Counting Clip Cards

To get ready, I first printed out the cards on cardstock and laminated them for repeated use. After I cut them apart I placed them in a basket and grabbed some clothespins and counters. The counters are for help with counting while the clothespins are for clipping the answer.

If you were able to laminate your butterfly counting clip cards, you could provide dry erase markers and have your students circle the correct answer on each clip card.

How to Use the Butterfly Counting Clip Cards

Now that you have your cards all prepared, let’s get to the activity itself.

First, place all your cards either in a stack or in a small basket.

Then, have your child pick a card. Have them count the butterflies on the card. If they seem to be counting too fast, have them mark each butterfly with a dry erase marker or crayon.

Once they have finished counting, let them identify the correct answer on the bottom of the clip card. There are a few ways they can do this.

  1. They can use the clothespins to clip the correct answer
  2. Use counters and place it on the correct answer
  3. Use dry erase markers or crayons to circle the correct answer
