Tips for using it

Count while you trace

Put out the same number of buttons or blocks as the number on the line. Tracing and counting together builds number sense.

Watch the tricky ones

2, 3, 5, 7 and 9 are often written backward at first. Give those extra tracing rows and a little more practice.

Add the words

Once the numerals are steady, switch to number words so children can match 3 with three.
