ADDITION MAT - COMBINING 2 GROUPS
This mat is designed to engage children in learning about the concept of addition. It serves as a bridge between physically counting objects and writing mathematical equations.
How to use…
• Adult or child can choose numbers to write in the green squares.
• Then child to count out that number of items (e.g. buttons, playdough balls, cotton reels, building blocks) for each large brown box above the corresponding green squares.
• Finally, the child can count all of the items and write the answer in the golden box.
This completes the grid with an addition number sentence, e.g. “3 plus 5 is equal to 8”.
(Buttons are shown as an example – be sure to use risk assessed age-appropriate loose parts as you see fit.)

CAPACITY POSTERS/CARDS
Inspire your children to consider the concept of capacity by displaying these posters within your setting. The posters demonstrate ‘full’, ‘empty’, ‘half-full’, ‘half-empty’ and also move onto include ‘nearly empty’ and ‘nearly full’. These posters can serve as a great stimulus for discussion and prompts during filling and emptying activities such as water/sand play and use of non standard measures such as filling containers with blocks to varying levels.
Extend discussions further for older children by challenging them to e.g. fill a container half full with building bricks. How many bricks did you need to half-fill the container? How many more do you think you will need to fill it completely? How many bricks will that be altogether? (Note that this line of questioning also involves ‘estimating’ and the concept of ‘doubling’.)

WEIGHT COMPARISON ACTIVITY
We have created this game to inspire conversations about the concept of weight. Children can place a card in one of the boxes and then attempt to place an appropriate card (in comparison to the first) in the other box. E.g. they may select an object they think of as ‘heavy’ in the first box and then find a card showing an object they think is ‘lighter’ than that object in the second box. If you have scales in your setting, why not develop this activity further? Perhaps you could begin weighing objects in your setting and draw them into the boxes? Display the finished products as a reminder for the concept or send the posters home to discuss further/allow the child to ’teach’ family members which will further consolidate the concept in a child’s mind.
