Numbers Recognition Games and Activities

Introducing numerals to children is simple when you know what to do. However, it is a very strenuous job if you don’t have any clue on how to begin and end when teaching kindergartners. Thus, it is essential that you have a list of the various number recognition games and activities. Here are a few of the many activities or games you can include in your list:

Counting Beads
Number Biscuits
Colorful Dice Tally
Dot-to-Dot Game
Number Hunt
Number Bubble Game
Number Match
Trace and Make Mats with Numbers
Counting with Number Rhymes
Magic Colored Beans
Counting and Sorting Shapes
Building Legos with Numbers

Since children easily lose focus, it is essential that every game or activity must be able to get their attention. Hence, using a variety of bright colors along with enormous and attractive shapes will definitely make them interested in playing the above-cited games.

As stated earlier, recognizing numbers is a vital skill to learn during a child’s tender age. At Kid’s World Preschool, we explore every possibility to determine whether such activity or game is useful to support the numerical skill development of your child. This is precisely the reason why we make it a point that our teachers keep in mind the following notes:

Teach number activities and games in a fun and interactive way in order to cultivate a positive and practical approach.
Aside from using numbers, it is also essential to teach numerals with alphabets so they can practice and recall their alphabets.
See to it that they have a lot of significant visual resources such as posters and stickers.
Along with the number games, our teachers see to it that they teach children how to read and write numbers.

Tips in Playing Number Games and Other Activities

In teaching numbers to preschoolers, it is paramount to incorporate figures in their day-to-day tasks. For instance, toddlers are asked to help set the table with one plate, one fork, and one spoon. They are also engaged to count apples and pears, as well as encouraged to fix and count their toys before leaving school.

Children learn numbers effectively when they are playing with a group of kids. We likewise encourage them to play the number games with camaraderie and teamwork. Additionally, kindergartners must know how numbers compare to each other. They can easily be taught by asking them to draw a picture of five squares, three squares, etc. and allow them to arrange it from low to high and vice versa. Once they master a particular set of numbers, we try the same method with a different game.

In building your child’s numeracy skill, below are some of the helpful ideas you can do as an everyday activity at home.

Allow your child to observe while you cook. He or she can help in mixing, filling, pouring, and stirring your ingredients.

Create an attractive growth chart to measure your kid’s height and describe what you’re doing so he or she can learn numbers easily.
Go for a stroll and point out how each block or house has numbers, or you can count your steps as you walk down the street.

When do Kids Learn to Count?

Just like talking and reading, you can introduce mathematical thinking as soon as your child reaches 18 months. Counting objects in the room like snacks, blocks, and stairs is an excellent way to start. Some children can even score a few numbers or memorize the sequence of numbers. Although this may be a routine or habit rather than genuinely understanding how to count numbers, it’s still a fun beginning in efficiently learning their numerals.

Number Crafts for Kindergartners

Apart from number games, toddlers can also learn their numerals faster through a number of crafts. An interactive variety of number crafts will surely encourage the kindergartners to learn math smoothly and efficiently. Whether or not your child requires a little help counting his or her fingers, these number of crafts are the perfect ways to get him or her learn.

Exploding Numbers – Get this fun number craft introduced by First Palette. The supplies you’ll need are roller brushes or paintbrushes, poster paint, masking tape, scissors, pencil, drawing paper or construction paper and letter or A4 size cardstock.
Octopus Counting Craft – Learn and have fun creating this numerical sea creature by All Kids Network. The things needed are marker, glue, eyes, green construction paper, 2 different colors of construction paper, and a large piece of paper.
Velcro Bull’s Eye Ball Tossing Game – Learn about numbers and adding your scores up with this engaging game by Artists Helping Children. The materials you’ll need are strong adhesive tape, yarn or ribbon, cardboard, small balls like plastic golf balls or ping pong balls, marker, cups or bowls, glue, and scissors.
Follow the Number Maze – Jamie of Hands On As We Grow suggested this tremendous and useful number craft. You’ll only need an art paper, scissors, and roll of painters tape.

It’s an undeniable fact that parents want to guarantee that their kids are fully equipped for school and that they will do well in preschool. However, kids at this early stage tend to enjoy playtime more than learning numbers and alphabets. One way to assist them transition into their study mode and to ace their kindergarten is to show them that learning is like playing. At Kid’s World Preschool, our teachers are experienced and determined to provide students with activities that are more fun than what they are playing at home.

How to Teach Numbers 1-10 in Kindergarten – KindergartenWorks

Number sense and learning to write and use numbers 0-10 is a pretty big deal the first nine weeks of kindergarten.

Here is a set of materials that helps me teach kindergarteners how to form the numerals and teach them how to count one-to-one all the way to ten.

Because, let's be honest.

Lots of kinders come in counting to ten skills - and then also - lots don't. I have found that it's very common to have incoming students that can only count up to four or five objects correctly.

Here's what I created to use in my classroom and you can use it too.

Teach them with a story

Just like I've learned that teaching procedures with a story is very effective, I've learned that teaching numbers with a story is effective too.

But I didn't really like any books that existed because they didn't teach students literally "this is how you count" and "this is how to make a 4." And that's just what I needed.

So, I created the monster numbers book and also turned it into an audiobook.

My kinders love it and it helps me teach a lot in a short amount of time.

It talks about the process of counting 1:1 all the way up to four.

It capitalizes on the fact that most students can count that many objects but pushes them to see that counting uses a pattern that they can apply to every number after.

As a teacher, you simply use the repeated phrases from the book "When you touch one, you say a number. When you touch another one, you say the next number" when you are working with kids who need help counting and touching objects one-to-one.

After that, it goes over easy-to-remember number formation chants to practice forming the numerals correctly.

So you can have students practice doing this with you as you read - they quickly learn to chant along with you and can even draw numbers in the air with their finger as you read aloud.

Of course, the way to maximize teaching numbers with young students is to do this more than once.

You can print this story and read it as often as you want.

To make it more fun and interactive, let's talk about how to engage the student's whole body in order to learn how to write numbers even faster.

Teach them with a video

A video can take learning how to write numbers and make it more interactive. So, use this free Monster Numbers video for kindergarten to your advantage!

We love throwing it up on a big screen to practice forming numbers with arms, elbows, legs, and heads. So much fun!

It also works great if you break it up into parts to focus on just a couple of numbers!

Enjoy this free how to write numbers video - it's about 10 minutes so it is a mini-lesson in itself, but should help get kinders moving while they're learning.

Now that you've laid a good foundation by reading and re-reading Monster Numbers and showing the video a few times - it's time to give the students practice in small groups.

Teach them in small groups

Have your students create their own little Monster Numbers book and "capture" monsters by completing the pages.

I like using this as a lesson with my guided math groups.

The mini-book starts with the number 5, since that's where most kinders need work on counting 1:1 when they enter kindergarten.

Do a few pages together, using the chants you learned from the book and video, and let students get some pencil and paper practice.

Send the little books home so that parents can see what students are working on.

Use the number handwriting chants any time you can

Now that your students can practically recite the whole video along - it's time to use those easy-to-remember chants any time your students are working on writing numbers, or need help with writing numbers correctly.

Whenever students are attempting to write on their own, or you are writing numbers in front of the whole class (like during calendar time) - use the chants!

Prompt students with a few words and let them finish saying it aloud.

Send home a set of the chants to go home to parents so they can use them at home too!

Hopefully, these will earn some at-home fridge space for a few weeks. {wink}

Teach what is a ten frame

Help your students quickly develop number sense by helping them see numbers in an organized way.

Introduce a ten frame - using a ten frame has been critical for me to teach so many math skills. But, let me make it easy for you. Your kids have already been exposed to one!

The "monster keeper" from the book is a ten frame.

It's a great visual for kinders and you can print as many monster manipulatives you'd like.

Use the ten frame whole group or with your small groups as needed -they are fantastic for exploring how to count, touching objects 1:1, and getting to know the layout of a ten frame.

Teach them how counters of any kind can be placed into a ten frame to help objects stay organized and make it easier to count.

Down the line in the school year, students will learn that 5 on top and 2 on the bottom is 7 without having to count each object. That's powerful when it comes to teaching your students how to subitize larger numbers.

For now, teach them what a ten frame is and use it often for counting.

Use some independent activities

You've taught counting 1:1 and how to form numbers as a whole group, in small groups and now you need to give students lots of practice doing this on their own using independent activities.

There are tons of printables, simple games, and center activities out there that can help you accomplish this.

I made a center activity that didn't need an explanation of how to do it. This way I could use it at the beginning of the school year when kinders aren't very independent workers yet.

Since most students come into kindergarten with the general concept of how to do a puzzle - I simply made ten frames into number puzzles to bring it all together.

There are two different kinds of puzzles to allow for differentiation.

The 3-piece number puzzles all have the same shape which means they have to count if they are to get the puzzle correct.

Revisit what worked

If you've been teaching students how to count and how to form numbers:

whole group
in small groups
with independent activities

and using the number chants whenever you can - your students will be well on their way to using numbers - not just learning them - in kindergarten!

Since the monster number ten frames are kinder-friendly, it's easy to use them again when it's time to introduce a new skill.

Once they know numbers to 10, it's time to dig deeper into numbers 0-5.

A special note - making 5 is a huge concept in kindergarten, so don't skip, ignore or gloss over it!

And then you're ready to focus on digging deeper into numbers 5-10.

Since I kind of loathe worksheets, I've made ten frame workmats. They are great for giving students a target number to make in different ways.

Students practice different ways of making numbers 5-10 You can use the workmats along with the recording sheets if you want.

They were fun to make and I love the idea of even using bingo-daubers for representing items in a ten frame. In this case, those daubers will create fantastic monsters.

Get Monster Numbers

If you love the idea of using this printable book and any of the printable resources, you can purchase the Monster Numbers Pack here:

- 11 page "My Monster Numbers" mini-book
- 5 workmats and 5 matching recording sheets
- Manipulative monster pictures and monster-themed ten frames (Monster-Keepers)

Bonus: Teach them with playdough

I love teaching things in tactile ways. Playdough is a staple material in my kindergarten classroom.

So, I made sure to create an independent activity that uses playdough to practice forming numbers and counting to ten.

These bonus playdough numeral formation and ten frame work mats still feature the monster keeper and familiar monsters - but transition students into using a plain ten frame to count their playdough monster balls.

You can simply laminate or slide the pages into a plastic sleeve and you're set to go!

Go to Purchase

Let's wrap it up

Teach numbers 1-10 in kindergarten by using: whole group, small group and independent activities.

Be sure to use books, videos, chants and get students moving and manipulating objects or playdough whenever you can to make it hands-on.

You're sure to maximize the time you spend teaching numbers to ten this way.

I hope that the Monster Numbers video and printable resources can help make it easier to quickly implement in your kindergarten classroom.
