How to Teach Children Ordering Numbers
There are many ways to teach young mathematicians to put numbers in order. Here are a few fun ideas you can try in your classroom:
- Counting Songs and Rhymes: Singing songs and rhymes with young students helps them to internalise the correct order of numbers.
- Number Line: Ask students to place numbers on a large number line so they can see the relationship between numbers.
- Place Value Chart: As numbers increase, putting numbers in a place value chart makes it easier to compare numbers digit by digit.
- Matching Activities: Students can match numerals to quantities to easily compare the amounts and then order numbers correctly.
- Number Books: Integrate books that feature numbers into your maths lessons for an engaging reminder of number order.
