This resource is 92 pages of incredible printables for Montessori preschool and elementary classrooms.
Today, I want to give you a preview of the math printables included and how we are using them. Be sure to also check out all of the other Chinese New Year activities and printables we have available.
I hope you enjoy our Montessori-inspired Chinese New Year Math Activities!
Before moving forward with our activities I wanted to mention that we have chosen to use the term Chinese New Year because these activities specifically focus on how the holiday is celebrated in Chinese culture.
The activities do not include a focus on other Lunar New Year celebrations around the world, especially those that do not take place on the same day.
Montessori-inspired Chinese New Year Math Activities
Odd and Even Numbers
A couple of our younger students don't know the difference between odd and even numbers yet. What fun it will be to teach them using Chinese Ingots.

Multiplication with Good Luck Coins
Good luck coins are often a part of Chinese New Year celebrations. In our classroom they're going to be used to teach multiplication with these beautiful clip cards. We're multiplying by eight, as eight is a lucky number associated with Chinese New Year.
