Numicon Kit 1
Catalogue Ref: CK1 (Group Kit) SUKI (One to One Kit)
Numicon Kit 1 builds on the Closing the Gap Kit and the Numicon Shapes continue to be extensively used throughout the teaching programme. At this stage we also suggest the introduction of Number Rods. Kit 1 includes a set of 1–10 Trays and 20 Tray for use with Number Rods. However since so many schools already have Number Rods these are not included as standard. If you need to order them they are available separately.
Ideas covered in Kit 1 include: signs of arithmetic notation + = –, consolidation of ± facts to 10, place value ± to 100. Suitable for pupils working at National Curriculum levels 1 and 2.
