Make numbers come alive in your classroom with The Star Number! This editable poster invites students to explore and interact with a new number each day, encouraging number sense, mathematical vocabulary, and active participation.

Every day, children are introduced to a new “star number”, which becomes the focus of rich discussions and activities. Students can find, draw, read, or observe today’s number in a variety of forms—either independently or guided by the teacher.

Concepts Covered:

• Number recognition
• Counting
• Addition & subtraction
• Number sequencing (before & after)
• Double and half
• Visual representations (dice, ten frame, dominoes)

What’s Included:

• Editable poster template
• Completed poster example
• Instructions for setup and classroom use

How It Works:

With today’s star number, children will:

• Recognize its numeral representation
• Identify it on a ten frame
• See it represented on a dice
• Match it to domino combinations (e.g., if the number is 4: 2+2, 3+1, 4+0)
• Count the same number of objects
• Name the previous and next numbers
• Identify its double and half

This daily number routine is a fantastic way to build number fluency, logical thinking, and mathematical connections in a fun, visual, and consistent way.

Materials You’ll Need:

• Laminator and laminating sheets
