Counting in 2’s and 5’s Number Lines

Aimed at EYFS this resource contains two decorative number lines which help illustrate counting in twos and fives. Counting in 2’s illustrates the gap between the numbers using pairs of socks whilst Counting in 5’s illustrates the gap between the numbers using handprints. The sheets need to be printed out and joined together to form a display, which shows arithmetical progression.

Provided by Early Learning HQ, the design is based on a suggested model as outlined in the DFES publication – [link=http://stem.org.uk/rx66v]Numbers and Patterns: laying foundations in mathematics.[/link]
