I'm excited to give away my first freebie! I had to create a few math activities that integrated music. I did these activities with a group of first graders and we had a great time! There is a math number sentence that the kiddos use and fill in while making a musical shaker (out of a paper towel roll, beans and macaroni), there is a basic addition song (to the tune of If You're Happy and You Know it) that integrates the shaker the kids make, and there is a basic number sentence template! The number sentence template is also used with the shakers. -- Everybody grabs a partner and they each shake a certain number of beats with their shaker to make a number sentence that they record on the template.
Hope someone can get some use out of these few things!!

Hi Molly, your freebie sounds great! Integrating music and math is a great way to help students learn and retain the math we teach them.
How do we download your freebie? Is there somewhere specific we go?
Thanks a bunch! Your blog looks great!
Oh no, I hope the link works!! The Musical Addition Picture was supposed to link to google docs if you click on it! Let me double check it! Thanks for your encouragement!
