Fine motor skills. Numeral recognition. Counting. One to one correspondence. These DIY butterfly counting cards created by Annette Bloomfield are sure to be a great addition to your spring and/or insect unit math centers! Simple to create, all you'll need are...

• Butterfly cutouts (purchased or created using a black and white clip art image and colored card stock)
• Colorful circle adhesive labels

Print a numeral in the center of each butterfly cutout, add the appropriate number of circle stickers to the outside edge of each shape, and laminate for durability. Easy peasy!
