Balancing concrete (manipulatives) & abstract thinking skills (pencil and paper) can be quite difficult in the elementary classroom. Not everyone is at the same stage, which is why math centers and teacher small groups lessons are the best type of math instruction. However, what is "terrific" in this world and what you can ACTUALLY fit into your schedule are two different things! :)
I have a set of Equal Groups Task Cards at TpT that have 36 different task cards, the first 18 ask the students to draw the equal groups and the last 18 ask them to count the equal groups and include a final answer.

When it comes to the ease of prepping these Equal Groups task cards, all pieces are rectangular and easy for you or a parent volunteer to cut on a paper slicer. No need to cut around a cute turkey or round pumpkin task card, just rectangles with graphics that are adorable and eye catching to hold your students' interest!

I have included two different recording sheets, one has #1 to #18 and the other has #19 to #36. If you students are advanced enough to complete all 36 task cards in one day, you can copy the recording sheets front to back for one answer sheet.

Two answer keys are also included to make grade quick and easy. You can also laminate them back to back and place them at your math center to have the students self-check and correct their answers.

These Task Cards are so easy to prep, it is perfect to give to a parent volunteer who is asking, "How can I help?" or your PTA / PTO volunteer room. It is also terrific for an Emergency Substitute Tub, Folder or Binder!
