Our ‘Useful resources’ for maths category has been rather neglected so I thought I would try and build up these resources over the coming weeks.

They can be used in a variety of ways for helping with counting on and back, simple addition and subtraction. It is a good idea to cut them out and laminate them, or use sticky back paper to make sure that they last a long time.
