Numicon

A multi-sensory teaching approach designed to give children an understanding of number ideas and number relationships which are essential for success in mathematics.

Numicon uses structured apparatus to represent numbers. The shapes provide learners with an understanding of number values and number relationships in a way that is not provided by written numerals. Children manipulate the shapes to build constructions, make arrangements and patterns, which helps them experience how numbers fit together. By seeing and feeling how Numicon patterns connect with each other, they start to use the shapes in practical arithmetic activities and develop their own mental imagery of number relationships.
