About this resource

Plasters for Teddy: counting mats 1 to 5. Teddy has bumped himself! Each mat shows a numeral, a dot pattern and spaces for the right number of plasters. Children count plasters onto Teddy. What’s included: • Teacher guide with Development Matters links. • 5 counting mats, 1 to 5. • 15 cut-out plasters that fit the spaces. Ideas for using it: • Make Teddy better: Put the right number of plasters on Teddy. • Count and stick: Count aloud as you add each plaster. • All better: Take one plaster off. How many now? • Real plasters: Stick real plasters on a teddy. Linked to Development Matters (three and four-year-olds): • Say one number for each item in order: 1,2,3,4,5. • Link numerals and amounts: for example, showing the right number of objects to match the numeral, up to 5. • Know that the last number reached when counting a small set of objects tells you how many there are in total (‘cardinal principle’). • Use longer sentences of four to six words. Supplied as a ready-to-print PDF (A4 landscape). Print, laminate and reuse all year.Read more

What you get, one file

  • PDFActivity

This pack is print and go. Our catalogue does not list an editable copy of it, so none is offered here rather than promising a file nobody has opened. Page counts are not printed either, because we do not publish them and a guessed number is worse than none.
