These sturdy beads, measuring 20 cm square each, are easy to connect and disconnect, featuring a robust design to prevent breakage during play. Blank on one side, the beads enable children to engage in number sequencing activities such as spotting missing numbers, counting forwards and backwards, and identifying ˜one more' or ˜one less' within the sequence. Available in four bright colours-blue, yellow, green, and red-this set encourages cooperative play, social interaction, and active learning. Recommended for children aged 2 years and older, the Giant Connecting Number Beads offer an engaging, large-scale way to explore fundamental numeracy concepts through physical activity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEducational Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePromotes understanding of number sequences from 1 to 20 in a large, tactile format.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourages cooperative play and social skills development.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports counting forwards, backwards, and identifying number neighbours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilds gross motor skills through connecting and manipulating large beads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassroom Ideas:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse beads outdoors to create long number chains as a group activity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChallenge children to find missing numbers using the blank bead side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourage counting games such as ˜one more' and ˜one less' with peers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncorporate colour sorting and patterning alongside number sequencing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInformation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAges: 2 years and up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes 20 large connecting beads numbered 1 to 20\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach bead measures 20 cm x 20 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColours included: blue, yellow, green, and red; made from durable plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Modern Teaching Aids NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42238442930289,"sku":"ZZ0801","price":249.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/7633\/6753\/files\/zz0801_giant-connecting-number-beads-1-20_v1_1.webp?v=1768792343","url":"https:\/\/teaching.co.nz\/products\/giant-connecting-number-beads-1-20-set","provider":"Modern Teaching Aids NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
