Learning Mathematical Language

Being able to visualise number learning at a young age can be done using the best selling Early Mastery Wooden Number Trays. The trays allow for the use of objects to be placed in the trays which match the numerical value on the tray. Children will love collecting different items to fill the trays enabling a strong sense of number recognition, counting, number bonds and mathmatical language. You can also extend this learning with the Early Mastery Wooden Number Trays 10-20 and the Early Mastery Wooden Number Tray Operations.

Learn Well have created lots of different chalk boards which are ideal for use inside and out. The Numbers Chalkboards have been designed to encourage big movements as children trace the digits with their fingers or chalk. The colourful number boards allow for familiarity and an understanding of how each number is formed.

When the time comes to start breaking down numbers the Part, Part, Whole Tray is ideal. Beautifully hand-crafted from beech wood they trays are designed using the ‘Cherry model’ showing how a whole can be split into 2 parts. Crafted to place real objects into the sections with them rolling away such as conkers, marbles or favourite small toys. The trays support the concept of portioning and a solid understanding of the relationship between addition and subtraction.
