EYFS Subitise to 5 Learning Activity

EYFS Mathematics Subitise to 5 Learning Activity

This learning activity enables children to subitise how many images they can see in a variety of distinct groups. The resource is designed to be cut into separate cards and used with large or small groups. The practitioner questions children, for example, how many cups, and children respond quickly after subitising the amount.
