A must have for every early childhood classroom!

Young children can subitize (able to recognize without counting) sets of 1 to 5; however, we all know how difficult it is for children to move forward with quantities of items from 6 to 10. These 5 sets of pattern cards were developed and inspired by the research conducted by Dr. David Sousa's "How the Brain Learns Mathematics."

These pre-math activity cards promote developing skills in one-to-one correspondence, greater than and less than, and emerging numeracy.

Included are:

• Set 1: Recognizable patterns; size consistency; color consistency; 1-10 number span. (10 cards)
• Set 2: Random placement; size consistency; color consistency; 1-10 number span. (10 cards)
• Set 3: Recognizable patterns; size variations; color consistency; 1-10 number span. (10 cards)
• Set 4: Recognizable patterns; size variations; color variation (indirect preparation for color bead stair); 1-10 number span. (10 cards)
• Set 5: Random placement of outlined shapes; size variations; no color; 1-10 number span. (10 cards)

Card size(s):

Printed on thick plastic with all corners rounded.
