Focus on the Numicon Feely Bag
The feely bag is a key component of the Numicon kits. By feeling for shapes in the bag, pupils are encouraged to visualise the properties of the shapes, this helps them to develop their own mental imagery of number. Children can learn a great deal with their senses and here are some Numicon activities that show exciting ways that the feely bag can be used to support multi sensory teaching. This resource lists the activities from our core kits that feature the Feely Bag to help you get the most from its use it also highlights and details the key activities in each case.

Important note about printing pdfs
Most printers default to print pdf files within the printable area of the page. This effectively means that pdf files are automatically scaled down to fit the page. In order to print our display resources at the correct size you will need to choose ‘page setup’ and select the appropriate page scaling options (either ‘None’ or ‘100%’ depending on the application and printer you are using).
