Simple activity to warm up stackers and review stacking patterns.
Establish a perimeter with markers or cones. Build the perimeter as large as possible. The teacher should remove one cup from each set of 12 and then give each student 11 cups to randomally place around the room. Then hand out the remaining single cup to each student and they site with that cup as their "home base" and wait for the go signal.
On the ‘go’ signal; stackers move in and out of the activity area collecting one cup at a time and returning it to their home base. The cups they collect must be the same color as their home base cup. Once stackers have retrieved all 11 cups, completing their set of 12, they stack a designated pattern, and then signal their completion by raising their hand.
