“Without mathematics there is nothing you can do. Everything around you is mathematics. Everything around you is numbers.”- Shakuntala Devi

Number sense, or the basics of learning about numbers, is the first vital mathematical skill a student must develop on reaching kindergarten. Students must learn to recognize and count numbers early in childhood to comprehend the relationship between numbers in the future.

Students are naturally visual and can build relationships between numbers and a represented item. Students of Nursery learnt the basics of counting through an activity. Pictures of different items were placed in front of them and they were asked to count the number of items. In another activity, students were given different number cards and were asked to run and pick up the same number of items from the box.

By these activities children enhanced their logical, gross motor, inter and intrapersonal skills.
