Some Ideas:

The Printable Number Tracing Mats allow children to trace the numbers to assist with pre-writing development and number formation. Here are some ideas and tips on how you can use the Number Tracing Mats with children.

  • Learn the new number pattern as a big body movement.
  • Using the point finger, draw the number into the air with oral prompting cues. Such as make a pointing finger, start at the top, and draw a line up and around, then down and across.
  • Now on the tracing mats, using your pointing finger trace over the lines to form the number shape, again using repetitive oral prompting cues to guide.
  • Start with the child’s favourite numbers, numbers that they know or the number of their age.
  • Only introduce a couple of number tracing mats at a time to avoid overwhelming the child.
  • Point to which numbers has straight lines, rounded lines or windows (holes).
  • Count how many numbers are on the page and write the number beside it.
  • Try writing a few numbers without tracing.

    1. Hi Marlyn, these printable mats are a downloadable product. They are available to purchase in Namibia. At the checkout select Namibia at the country option and follow the prompts. Hope this helps and thank you! 🙂

  1. I love your number mats and would love to purchase them. Is there a way that you could do a set that has the starting point on the 5 at the top of the downward stroke as we always start there and then “put the hat on” (horizontal top stroke) last. That’s how all Australian school,children are taught.

    1. Hi Im, Thank you for your comment. My website is based in Australia and I teach in Australian schools. I have found that most customers on my website have wanted the number 5 as it is displayed in this printable. If you are looking for something along the lines of the rhyme you have mentioned “short neck, big round tummy, hat on top, five looks funny” this printable might be useful. https://www.learning4kids.net/product/dot-to-dot-number-rhyme-charts-cursive-print/ Thanks 🙂
