What’s included?
This download includes two A4, portrait pdf sheets to make number fans featuring numerals from 0 to 10. Black and white version.

Who’s it for?
This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support.

How to use this resource
Number fans can be used in a variety of situations including on-the-carpet questioning with the whole class/smaller groups where pupils can show their answers instead of speaking. Number fans can be used as a personal reference resource for learners e.g. to help count and order numbers and/or cross-check the correct orientation of individual numbers if unsure when writing. Number fans can also be used for a variety of games and to accompany and involve learners during counting rhymes and songs, usable both inside the classroom and outdoors.

Suggestion
Brightly coloured plastic keyrings (which can be easily opened by unclipping the plastic) could be ideal where you wish learners to access the contents of the ring e.g. to order the numbers. Alternatively a short loop of wool/string could be tied/untied to achieve the same effect. A standard metal keyring works well as a more permanent ‘holder’ of the contents threaded onto the ring.

I recommend that each number is laminated before punching a hole and threading onto a keyring - this is included in the instructions on the pdf.

Important message…
