Fun Activities With Numicon
The aim of Numicon is to make numbers real for children through them being able to see and touch them. Numicon Shapes provide a concrete object to represent each number and also has a multi-sensory approach that's known to help learning.
Teaching and learning with Numicon requires children to be active - to actively learn and to do the mathematics for themselves. Doing mathematics (i.e. thinking and communicating mathematically) with Numicon, explicitly involves illustrating in every activity through exploring relationships.
