These are designed to be used with dice, spinners, etc. The child would roll die or spin spinner, and then he/she would place that number of items (rocks, coins, erasers, etc.) on the gameboard -- one item per square. The child continues adding items until all of the squares are filled. Another idea that you could do with these gameboards is to use them as a matching game or memory, or as an art extension -- comparing and contrasting the artists.
I'm going to use them as a math manipulative, which I will be sharing with you over the next few weeks, on how we are introducing the basic addition facts up to 10 (this is similar to the Montessori black and white bead stair).

Thanks so much :-)
Thanks Leann!
Leann,
Thank you so much for sharing this. Just by coincidence we started back on our calendar activity this week and chose Van Gogh as our artist. I hope to incorporate these cards in the next day or so.
By the way, this is the first time in months I've stopped by for a visit and I want to say thank you for all the fabulous resources and ideas you've shared! I haven't been browsing through other people's blogs much since the move, but I'll have to move your blog to the "must see" list! :)
Kind regards,
Liesl
PS--I hope I didn't just post twice. I got an error message in my last comment-posting.
I added myself to follow your blog. You are more than welcome to visit mine and become a follower if you want to.
God Bless You :-)
