Last year at kindergarten, my daughters spent a lot of time working on number sense. Number sense has been described as an intuitive feel for numbers and their relationships. So much of the work that my kids did at school and the homework that they brought home involved being able to group numbers into various sets and thinking and talking about ways to make a number. This is an important part of developing a child’s mathematical thinking. This Make a Number Math Game is a fun way for kids to practice number sense. It was inspired by this Fine Motor Skills Counting Activity my kids did when they were younger.
- Pony beads
- Pipe cleaners
- Masking tape

It’s so much easier to understand things when you can see good pictures! Thank you! I’m gonna bookmark this!
