Marshmallow Peeps Math Craft

The class made a Marshmallow Peeps craft to help them learn to count by 5’s.  Each student made a basket of 5 peeps.  We lined them up on the board and were able to count to 100 by 5’s!

They added three brown dots for the details of the eyes and nose.

The baskets were difficult to cut, so I had our 5th grade reading buddies help us cut the basket and glue the peeps in!

Each student wrote “5” on their basket to show that there are 5 peeps inside.  I put them all up on the white board and wrote under the baskets how many peeps total we had.  I left these up for two days so we could keep revisiting them.  This would be great for a spring bulletin board too!
