Subitizing Dot Cards & Ten Frames, 200 Flash Cards
Category: Education / Preschool
200 printable flash cards that teach children to see how many at a glance: dice dots, scattered dots, ten frames and fingers, 1 to 20. A4, US Letter and phone.
See it, say it, no counting! These flash cards teach your child to know "how many" in one quick look. You flash a card for 2 seconds and ask: "How many?" That is the whole game, and it builds the number sense that mental math grows from.
200 cards from 1 to 20, in four ways to see a number: dice dots, scattered dots, ten frames and fingers. Print them, or flash them straight from your phone.

• Start with Dice Dots 1 to 3 and add bigger numbers when your child answers fast
• 5 to 10 minutes a day is plenty
HOW TO PRINT

• Single-sided: print only the front pages; the small corner number is the answer
• Cardstock 65-110 lb (200-300 gsm) makes sturdy cards; plain paper works too
