Children will sharpen number sense and practice early math concepts with the irresistible Cactus Counting Desert Activity Set! This set combines colorful Cactus Counters with engaging Five-Frames, creating a hands-on way to practice addition and subtraction, patterning and sorting, and so much more. Five-frames are visual, hands-on tools that help children develop number sense and allow them to compose and decompose numbers in relation to fives. Instead of just memorizing, frames allow children to build, compare, and reason with numbers. Using visual models leads to a deeper understanding of number relationships and prepares children for future math concepts, like place value. The included Five-Frames can link together multiple ways for even more counting and sorting activities. The 4 Desert Base Five-Frames snap together to make 10, 15, and 20. A hands-on way to grow early math skills, the Cactus Counters come in 4 different shapes and colors and feature a variety of tactile, sensory elements such as flowers and detailed spikes. Inspired by the unique sights and colors of the desert, the four different cactus shapes can be organized into a five or ten-frame structure with the desert base pieces. Children will enjoy using the five-frames to "plant" 4 different types of cacti while composing and decomposing numbers, practicing addition and subtraction, and developing number sense. Counters are made of high-quality, soft, durable plastic that children will enjoy handling. These Colorful Cactus Counters are an exciting tool for hands-on math practice that feels like play. The teacher-developed Activity and Game cards are based on their skill focus and guide children through early math activities and open-ended play. Also includes fun cactus facts! The Transparent Spinner can be used to play games or help children create skill-focused games of their own. This set includes 4 Desert Base Five-Frames, 40 Cactus Counters, 20 Double-Sided Math Activity Cards, 1 Transparent Spinner, 2 Double-Sided Spinner Cards, and an Activity Guide.
