Dice & Drawing

Posted by on November 17, 2020

We have been working with Dominoes and dice in math.  The ability to recognize the ‘dots’ on dominoes or dice is an important math skill (subitizing).

What does subitize mean?

“To subitize is to identify the number of things in a set simply by quickly looking at them—not by counting them one by one.”

This week I have an artistic assignment for you!  Get out a single die, a piece of paper and something to draw with (we use Sharpies in class) and you are ready!!  On the ‘Resources’ page you can find a number of Dice Drawing Challenges.
  • Wild Flowers
  • Crazy Critter
  • Angry Bird Pigs
  • Create a Creature
  • Draw a Cupcake

Choose one, roll and draw a masterpiece!! 

I’d love to see what you come up with…Can you think of other ways to practice subitizing?
