How to Use These Counting Mats
This versatile set can be enjoyed by children at various stages of math concept development. I recommend laminating the mats and cards to make them durable. Alternatively, you can place them in a page protector or plastic sleeves like these.
- Use with manipulatives such as these dinosaur counters, or use the provided printable bone cards
- Trace the number with your finger or use a dry erase crayon/marker. You can even roll out the number shape with play dough!
- Roll play dough balls or use plain beads or pompoms to fill in the ten frames with the correct quantity
- Use ten frame number cards to check your work!
- You may even want to try tracing the number words
