Teach Your Monster Number Skills is a game designed to help children develop their number sense. Designed with experts in early years maths to align with the Reception/Pre-K through to the year 1/ kindergarten curriculum, the game is appropriate for children from 3 to 6+ who will all find value in using the game to practice and reinforce key number skills.
What is number sense?
Number sense is the ability to use many skills that we don’t always realise are important — such as breaking numbers apart and putting them together or putting numbers in the right order — to judge how many things there are of something. It’s the difference between children when they’re older being able to add up large numbers in their head instead of still struggling to add them up on their fingers.
Is this game right for my child?
Children up to 6 and beyond will find the game offers valuable practice. Even those who may seem confident with their numbers are often stronger in some of the core concepts than others — it's often the case that children start to struggle with mathematics when they get older, as they've missed the opportunity to practice and understand all of these key concepts. This game will find any gaps they may have, and give them ample opportunity to practice and fill these gaps.
In addition, the game will automatically move them on to more challenging levels — there are over 150 in the game — once they have shown they have mastered each skill.
