Helping Children with their Counting and Sorting
Our mini dinosaur and prehistoric animal models have proved very effective teaching aids in school. The mini dinosaur models are used to help children get to grips with numbers and these bright and colourful figures help inspire and motivate many young children as they make super counters and props for use in counting exercises.
The variety of the figures in a box of 96 provides plenty of opportunities for sorting these little models into different groups. For example, we have used them to help sort out all the red coloured models into one group, all the yellow coloured models into another. In addition, we have seen children differentiate and sort the models according to how many legs the animal walks on (two legs or four).
As an extension for more capable learners linked to the Key Stage 1 curriculum is to challenge pupils to sort the figures into meat-eaters and plant-eaters, linking the counting game to an element of the national curriculum that explores simple food chains and food webs.
