Teaching tips:
Go to 'Activity settings' to configure the game for different number ranges. Choose between counting in twos and fives, or twos, fives and tens.
Ensure children are counting accurately in multiples of 2s, 5s and 10s as they go. They could use a 100 square to aid counting.
For practice counting in multiples, use the ‘Counting in twos, fives and tens’ flashcard activities.
