Pete the Cat: Roll and put on buttons

We have been reading MANY Pete the Cat stories. One thing I love to do is connect our stories to other activities. The children had their own shirts (much like Pete) and had to roll to put on buttons (addition) and then roll to take them off (subtraction). Many math skills were being taught, and improved upon: subitizing (die dot patterns)
rote counting
turn taking
addition and subtraction basics
