Ready to add a little holiday fun to your number practice? The December Missing Numbers activity is a festive and interactive way for children to practice number recognition and counting while solving missing number puzzles, all with a December (holiday) twist!
In this activity, children will be given a series of number sequences or number cards with a missing number. For example, in a sequence like 2, __, 4, 5, children will work to fill in the missing number (3). These puzzles help reinforce number recognition and encourage children to think critically about number sequences and the relationship between numbers.
The counting aspect encourages children to practice counting up and down, reinforcing their ability to identify numbers in a series. Children will also practice one-to-one correspondence as they fill in the missing number by counting the objects or looking at the sequence.
