Fun Assessment Ideas
There are many engaging ways to assess how well your students can subitize. Here are three ways to gamify assessment:
- Dice: Have students roll dice and instantly tell you how many dots they see. You can use one die or multiple dice to vary the level of difficulty.
- Subitizing Slides: Show students digital slides of varying numbers of fun, colorful objects. (Check out our resource linked below!)
- Match the Quantity: Show students a set of objects (such as blocks or coins) and ask them to quickly match the quantity shown to a card with the number on it.
