Help children build number sense before relying on written procedures.
The Let’s Learn Maths Number Sense Visual Toolkit is a printable collection of visual and hands-on resources designed to help children see, build and understand numbers.
Rather than focusing only on getting the answer, the toolkit supports children to make connections between quantities, representations and written numbers.
Inside the toolkit you’ll find:
- visual number representations
- hands-on number activities
- practical ways to build and compare numbers
- opportunities to connect concrete, visual and symbolic representations
- clear prompts to support mathematical thinking
- reusable printable resources
- guidance for adults supporting learning at home
The resources can be used flexibly for:
- learning at home
- homeschooling
- targeted maths support
- intervention and revision
- one-to-one or small-group learning
The Let’s Learn Maths approach
Build it. See it. Understand it. Then write it.
The toolkit is designed to make mathematical thinking visible and help children develop understanding before moving to abstract written work.
