Numicon Kit 1 builds on the Firm Foundations Kit and the Numicon Shapes continue to be extensively used throughout the teaching programme. At this stage we also suggest the introduction of Number Rods. Kit 1 includes a set of 1-10 Trays and 20 Tray for use with Number Rods in the activities, however, since so many schools already have these they are not included in the Kit as standard. If you are purchasing a Kit for Home use or the school does not already have Number Rods then these can be ordered separately. Ideas covered in Kit 1 include: signs of arithmetic notation + = , consolidation of + facts to 10, place value + to 100. Suitable for pupils working at National Curriculum levels 1 and 2.

Numicon Kit 2 builds on Kit 1, continuing with the use of Numicon Shapes and Number Rods (to use with Rod Track and Traysincluded in the Kit). Please note that since so many schools already have these they are not included in the Kit as standard. If you are purchasing a Kit for Home use or the school does not already have Number Rods then these can be ordered seperately. Ideas covered in Kit 2 include: developing further mental arithmetic strategies in + to 100; place value; multiplication; division; and introducing fractions. Suitable for pupils working at National Curriculum levels 2 and 3.

The Numicon Geometry, Measurement and Statistics 6 Teaching Pack comprises a Teaching Resource Handbook and an Implementation Guide, providing the core materials you need to start teaching children aged 10 to 11.
The Teaching Resource Handbook provides step-by-step activities for developing children's understanding of geometry, measurement and statistics. With a great emphasis on problem-solving through real-world contexts and practical planning and assessment guidance, the Teaching Resource Handbook will support you with developing children's mathematical understanding using Numicon. Photocopiable activities for home, linked to classroom activities, give children the opportunity to practise
and discuss maths in a fun, engaging way. Also included are photocopy masters to support the activities and a series of investigations. The Implementation Guide offers guidance on what Numicon is, gives advice on how best to implement Numicon in your school and describes the Key Mathematical Ideas that underpin
work within this year. With information on the theory behind Numicon, this guide will inspire you in building a secure future in mathematics for all children.

The Explorer Progress Book supports the activities in the Numicon Geometry, Measurement and Statistics 5 Teaching Resource Handbook and offers an opportunity for teachers to assess individual children and monitor progress.

Numicon builds a deep understanding of maths through a multi-sensory approach, developing children's fluency, reasoning and problem-solving. Numicon Pupil Books are designed for children to use independently after whole class teaching and learning has taken place. The Pupil Books are divided into two sections: Practice and Going Deeper. The Practice sections provide independent practice to improve understanding and fluency while the Going Deeper sections provide open questions to challenge pupils and deepen their conceptual understanding and develop mastery. The four-page sections for each of the Activity Groups follow the order of the long term plans in the Teaching Resource Handbooks and reflect the content in the Focus activities, enabling progress to be matched against the Milestones. There is one Pupil Book for each year group. An answer book is provided in the pack of 15 and is also available on Numicon Online (on the Oxford Owl website). The Numicon Pupil Books have been tried and tested in the classroom.
