Stage 1: Pictures and Objects

Children are encouraged to develop a mental picture of the number system in their heads to use for calculation. They develop ways of recording calculations using pictures and real objects, etc.


e.g. How many shoes are there altogether?

Give each child 3 buttons on their top. How many will you need?


Each plate has 2 carrots on, how many carrots are there altogether?
