The number wheel!
Maths has a reputation for being boring, but it all depends on how you are taught it! Give numbers a chance to be fun from the very start.
Let's play with the number wheel! :D
MATERIAL
Apli card stock
Apli stickers
Apli clips
Apli scissors
Pencil, marker and ruler
STEP 1
Cut out a large circle with the Apli card stock and divide it into sections. The larger the circumference, the more sections can be made.
STEP 2
We will put different numbers of stickers in a range of colours and shapes on each section, in this case, from 1 to 8. We have avoided putting them in sequential order to make it a little more difficult ;-)
STEP 3
Now we have the complete wheel!
STEP 4
Now let's write the corresponding numbers on the clips. A small detail: we have chosen yellow for the odd ones and blue for the even numbers. Something else to learn! :)
STEP 5
Now all you have to do is play with your little one to count while also describing the shapes and colours. Easy and fun! Do you like it?
Let's play with numbers! :D
