Pre-Number Skills for Children Aged 3-4

Excel Early Skills Maths Book 1 Patterns Sorting and Matching builds the thinking skills children need before they start working with numbers.

Bev Dunbar's opening maths title concentrates on three first skills: seeing patterns, sorting items into groups and matching up items. These everyday ideas prepare young children for counting and number work later in the series. It is pitched at Foundation and K-Prep learners aged 3-4 and works well as a gentle introduction to maths at home.

Activities sit on double pages, each one giving plenty of repetition on a single skill so it is reinforced. The publisher notes that books in this series were trialled by parents with children in each age group, which gives families confidence the tasks suit very young learners.

Find more home-learning titles like this in our educational books range, browse the wider educational activity books collection, and add the pencils and writing supplies young learners need from our educational supplies section for a complete early learning kit.
