![]() If the flash cards are cut off when you print them, see below for PDF print margin troubleshooting. Also consider printing on thicker card stock paper so your flash cards last longer. Printers vary, so it's a good idea to print a "test page" before printing a full flash card set. Horizontal cards need Portrait orientation. ![]() ![]() Vertical flash cards need Landscape orientation. IMPORTANT: Be sure to check your printer's orientation before printing. However, two-sided printing requires a duplex-enabled printer or a special printing technique (see below for how to do the technique). No folding or gluing needed for either of these.ĭuplex printing allows you to print on both sides of the paper, with or without answers. Start slow, and then add some speed to the matching games.In addition to fold-and-glue, the horizontal sets are available in "no answers" format (one-sided only) as well as duplex (prints on both sides). You can even play a memory matching game with them like you see in the images above. You can also use the cards to match them up in a pocket chart or on a table top/carpet area. Ask your learners to tell you how many dots they saw. Once learners get the hang of it, quickly show a card then remove it from sight. Show a card, and let your learners tell you the patterns they notice. When teaching the skill, it’s a-okay to go slow at first. Explain how you can “see” the number by talking about the patterns you notice. All the number cards can be found in color and in blackline.Īt first, use the cards to teach subitizing. You’ll find the dot patterns that learners are familiar with from a die as well as other ones. This means you can use the cards with preschoolers. The subitzing cards in this pack include numbers 1-12 and 48 dot patterns for these numbers. This is essentially what happens when a learner rolls two or three dice at one time and has to quickly tell the total. When the dot pattern goes beyond 6, learners must first identify smaller patterns within the larger dot pattern and then quickly combining them together to figure out the number. It is typically appropriate for 1st grade and up or after after a learner has mastered perceptual subitizing. Conceptual subitzing – This skill is more complex and is for numbers higher than 6.Again, think rolling a die and identifying the number rolled. Typically, this is appropriate for ages 4 through Kindergarten. Perceptual Subitizing – This is the “pure” sense of the word where learners automatically recognize dot patterns for numbers 1-6.One kind is developmentally appropriate for younger learners while the other kind is for older learners. ![]() There are two different kinds of subitizing. As you see, it’s a great skill to play with, even when learners are young! Understanding how to subitize helps learners with other math skills like: recognizing patterns, skip counting, counting on, addition, and subtraction. Subitizing is a foundational number sense skill. For example, when a child can roll a die and tell how many dots there are without counting, they are subitizing. Subitizing is the ability to look at a small group of objects and instantly see how many are there without counting the objects. *Grab this freebie by scrolling down and clicking on the teal download button at the bottom of this post.
