You will need:

Feed the Shark Math Game Download (grab it here!)
Dice
Counters (we used penguin crackers but you can use anything)

Instructions:

Download and print the Feed the Shark Math Game mat. We laminated ours for extra durability.
Have your child roll the die. Practice counting how many dots are on the die.
Place that many counters into the shark’s mouth. Repeat and have fun!
You can use two dice and practice adding the counters together, or you can start with the counters in the shark’s mouth and “rescue” them by subtracting how every many you roll. There are lots of ways to modify this game!
