Even and odd is a valuable skill for young students to learn. It can be tricky, but if they have a good number sense foundation and can count by 2's, it's much easier!!! As I reflected back to how I taught this concept in years past, it seemed so boring! The way that I introduce it is still pretty fun, though! I have kids come up to the front of the room, first just one child. I ask if he has a partner and they say "no." I tell them that 1 is odd. I continue this on through 10. It keeps them engaged and helps them learn about this concept. I also got a Brain Pop Jr. subscription this year and they have a great even/odd video clip on there. This year, I added a poster from this fabulous pack I found on TpT, by "Bright Concepts 4 Teachers."
I am seriously obsessed with this set! It has so many fun and minimal-prep activities! We did the "If the Shoe Fits" sort, the "Odd and Even Buddies," several of the worksheets, and will be doing the pocket book sort as a center very soon! This pack definitely made learning about even and odd numbers much more fun!
