Numbers, Words, Dots, and Tallies Mix-Ups - 1 to 20
A game to help your students understand numbers and all of the different ways they can be represented.
Print the cards out and laminate them so they can be used throughout the year.
Mix all of the cards up and have your students put them together in groups showing the matching number, word, dot pattern and tally marks.
You could also make a game of memory with the cards by sticking the same color backing on the numbers, a different color backing on the words, another on the dot patterns and the final color backing on the tally marks. Students need to collect all of the representations of the same number.
