Here are some suggestions for using Number Puzzles with your child:
- Start by introducing the first five numbers puzzles. As your child grows more confident, gradually include the reaming puzzles
- Help your child to count the items accurately on the picture pieces by touching each item as they count aloud
- Help your child to understand that the total value of the count is the last number they say. When they have finished counting, try asking, ‘How many caterpillars did you count?’
- When your child has correctly counted the objects, help them to find the matching number. Encourage your child to trace over the large number with their finger
- Pick out a picture card and ask your child to find the matching number
- Share out the pieces and see how many completed puzzles you can each make. Then swap pieces until all the puzzles are completed.
- When your child can confidently complete the puzzles, place them in a row, in number sequence. Starting with number 1, encourage your child to work along the puzzles from left to right, saying the numbers in order.
