Numicon builds a deep understanding of maths through a multi-sensory approach. This laminated number line, scaled to take Numicon Shapes, shows Numicon 10-shapes laid horizontally end-to-end with points marked but not labelled. The points can be labelled using a whiteboard pen.
Numicon has become part of what I do when teaching maths. It has become an integral part of maths lessons because it works! However did we teach maths before Numicon?
