Numicon At Home £5 Voucher scheme
Starting in September 2009...
The Numicon At Home Voucher scheme is designed to encourage parents to work in partnership with schools to help give their children a good start in understanding number ideas, by following the playful activities in 1st Steps with Numicon - At Home. Most parents want to help their children's maths but are not sure how to do so, and many schools using Numicon in their EYFS classes are encouraging parents to use First Steps with Numicon at Home because they see real benefits for the children when this resources is used both at home and in school.
Parents can order their Kit online for £32.23 (including carriage - for UK mainland - and VAT) and each 1st Steps with Numicon - At Home Kit purchased will contain a £5 Numicon voucher, designed to be taken into school so that these can be collected and redeem off any future orders.
Please use this flyer to inform parents about the 1st Steps with Numicon – At Home Kit and the Voucher Scheme. Other than this, there is no involvement needed by the school, except to spend your vouchers when the parents/pupils bring them in!
There is also an introductory video for the First Steps with Numicon - At Home resource, and an introduction to the Numicon approach, which may also be useful in explaining the Numicon approach to parents.
