Supporting Number Sense
Strong number sense is the foundation of early maths learning. Before children can confidently add, subtract, or solve problems, they need to understand that numbers represent quantities. This game helps children make that important connection between the written numeral and the amount it represents.The repeated exposure to different quantities in varied layouts also encourages flexible thinking about numbers — helping children recognise that a number can look different while still representing the same quantity.The clear layout, simple visuals, and colour-coded levels make this game especially supportive for early learners and children who benefit from structured, visually accessible activities.

Simply print the cards, cut them out, and you’re ready to play! This simple matching game helps children build early number sense by matching the numeral cards to the matching dot quantity cards. Each square card is divided into four sections, giving children multiple opportunities to recognise and compare quantities within one game piece.The game is organised into three colour-coded levels to support progression and differentiation:
- Teal: Numbers 0–5
- Purple: Numbers 6–9
- Blue: Numbers 0–9 mixed together for extra challenge
