Deck O’ Dots Are Finally Here!

Jun 12, 2015

Deck O’ Dots is my new publication! It is a very versatile deck of cards featuring Sam and Sally the Subitizing Superheroes!  The deck of cards is specifically designed without “digits” to help children to subitize (instantly recognize number quantity) in order to develop higher order thinking skills in mathematics.  There are three distinct levels within the deck to help differentiate and meet the needs of all learners.

  • Red Cards: For children learning how to subitize arranged quantities to 5 within the five frame structure.
  • Yellow Cards: For children learning how to subitize arranged quantities to 10 within the ten frame structure.
  • Green Cards: For children learning how to subitize scattered quantities through 10. The cards with quantities 6-0 have a star on Sam’s cape.  Look for the stars to help you sort the deck easily from 0-5 or 6-10.

 

Deck O’ Dots are $14.95 and they also come in a class set of 15 for $180, which gives you 3 sets for FREE. The class set makes an ideal amount for partner work!
