Ladybird Spots is a fun interactive activity that encourages children to explore number. Children place spots on the ladybird’s wings to total the number shown. The ladybird’s wings turn red when the number is correct. A prompt to try again occurs if too few or too many are placed. Addition facts can be recorded to ensure all combinations are found.
Designed for a teacher-led lesson about exploring number, the resource is also suitable as a follow-up activity in maths groups.
