Free EYFS Guess How Many Interactive Game

Free EYFS Guess How Many IWB Activity

This EYFS 'Guess How Many' IWB activity encourages children to estimate the quantities in a range of images. The game features four questions across three slides. The first slide of each question allows children to briefly look at the image and estimate the number of objects displayed. Please note, supporting adults are required to move onto the next slide when appropriate.

The second slide of each question asks children to 'make a sensible guess' and discuss their estimate with a partner. The final slide requires children to count the objects to check the answer.
