I Made a Number Display to Help My Mathias Learn [EN] // Fabriqué una Pantalla de Números para Ayudar a Mi Mathias en su Aprendizaje [ES]

I'm lousy at crafts, the truth is that I think you have to be born for that, and I did not get that configuration in my operating system hahaha, however, in order to help my Mathias in his learning of numbers I have made this screen of numbers, to which I have also added some elements according to the amount that says the number so that Mathias can associate the amount with the written number. This idea was suggested to me by a friend who is a psychopedagogue and to whom I have resorted to help me with Mathias' activities, since for example learning numbers was becoming difficult for him, or at least that's what I thought.



Last week he went to school a couple of days to be evaluated by the teacher, and it happens that my son is a troll hahaha, he counts and recognizes the numbers perfectly up to 10, however, with me he did not want to do it and is that he likes to play with me, and it is perfectly normal behavior, indicates me the teacher and the psychopedagogue, the truth is that after they told me that I have relaxed a little because I was very worried because every day we did exercises to learn numbers and I did not see results. Now, this screen or number chart will help me to reinforce even more this learning since the little ones need repetition to learn in a better way.



This screen took me more time than I estimated it would take me, because to tell the truth I spent about 30 minutes a day to finish it, so I finished it in a total time of 2 hours, then I show you what I used to make it.

5 sheets Gum Eva or foamy letter size
1 Lamina Eva rubber or foamy double letter size
1 Roll String or wick
55 Pieces Bamboo clothespins
1 Scissors
Cold paints, Graphite pencil, ballpoint pen and brushes
1 small jar Cold silicon


To begin with the help of a brush and cold paints, I painted the bamboo tongs, also serve those that are wooden, or if we get colored plastic tongs can be used and we save this step.



Continue by preparing a template with numbers, which you would then transfer to the foami to cut out and shape the numbers.



After cutting out all the numbers, we attach them to the screen that we have made with a sheet of foamy cut in half and joined lengthwise, so that it looks like the first image.



Once we have fixed the numbers with the help of cold silicone, we place on the opposite side the string or wick, where we will then place the clips, this we also fix with cold silicone, and to finish, we cut strips of 2 centimeters wide foamy, to make a kind of frame and give a larger size to our screen, as well as cover the attachment points of the string.



Once we have fixed all the elements with the help of cold silicone and we are sure that nothing will come off, we can add the clips and hang them where it is most suitable for the little ones to see it every day. Once My Mathias has learned these numbers to perfection, I think I will give this to my neighborhood school, so that it will continue to be useful for other children. Sometimes preschoolers recognize numbers faster when they are associated with the number of elements they represent, which is why teaching them with the old example of apples and pears never gets old.

Soy pésima en manualidades, la verdad es que yo creo que para eso hay que nacer, y a mí no me llego esa configuración en mi sistema operativo jajaja, sin embargo, en pro de ayudar a Mi Mathias en su aprendizaje de los números he fabricado esta pantalla de números, a la que además le he adicionado algunos elementos acordes con la cantidad que dice el número, de manera que Mathias logre asociar la cantidad con el numero escrito. Esta idea me la sugirió una amiga que es psicopedagogo y a la que he recurrido para que me ayude con las actividades de Mathias, ya que por ejemplo el aprendizaje de los números se le estaban haciendo difícil, o por lo menos eso era lo que yo pensaba.



La semana pasada acudió a la escuela un par de días para ser evaluado por la maestra, y sucede que mi hijo es un trol jajaja, cuenta y reconoce los números perfectamente hasta el 10, sin embargo, conmigo no quería hacerlo y es que le gusta jugar conmigo, y es una conducta perfectamente normal, me indica la maestra y la psicopedagogo, la verdad es que después de que me dijeran eso me he relajado un poco, pues estaba muy preocupada porque todos los días hacíamos ejercicios para aprender números y no veía resultados. Ahora bien, esta pantalla o cuadro de números me servirá para reforzar aún mas este aprendizaje, ya que los más pequeños requieren de la repetición para aprender de mejor manera.



Esta pantalla me llevo más tiempo del que estimaba me llevaría, porque a decir verdad le dedicaba unos 30 minutos al día para terminarla, por lo que la termine en un tiempo total de 2 horas, a continuación te muestro lo que utilice para fabricarla.

5 Laminas Goma Eva o foami tamaño carta
1 Lamina Goma Eva o foami tamaño doble carta
1 Rollo Cordel o pabilo
55 Unidades Pinzas de bambú para ropa
1 Tijeras
Pinturas al frio, Lápiz de grafito, bolígrafo y pinceles
1 pote pequeño Silicon frio


Para comenzar con ayuda de un pincel y pinturas al frio, pinté las pinzas de bambú, también sirven las que son de madera, o si conseguimos pinzas plásticas de colores se pueden usar y nos ahorramos este paso.



Continúe preparando una plantilla con números, que luego transferiría al foami para recortar y darle forma a los números.



Luego de recortados todos lo números, los fijamos a la pantalla que hemos fabricado con una lámina de foami cortada a la mitad y unida a lo largo, de manera que nos quede como en la primera imagen.



Una vez que hemos fijado los números con ayuda del silicón frio, colocamos por el lado contrario el cordel o pabilo, donde vamos a colocar luego las pinzas, esto también lo fijamos con silicón frio, y para terminar, cortamos tiras de 2 centímetros de ancho de foami, para hacer una especie de marco y darle un mayor tamaño a nuestra pantalla, así como tapar los puntos de fijación del cordel.



Una vez que hayamos fijado todos los elementos con ayuda del silicón frio y que estemos seguros de que nada se despegara, podemos agregarle las pinzas y colgarlo donde sea más idóneo para que a diario lo vean los más pequeños. Una vez que Mi Mathias ya se haya aprendido a la perfección estos números, creo que le regalare esto a la escuela de mi barrio, para que de esta manera continúe siendo de utilidad para otros niños. En ocasiones los niños en edad preescolar reconocen más rápido los números cuando están asociados a la cantidad de elementos que representan, es por esto que enseñarles con el viejo ejemplo de las manzanas y las peras nunca pasa de moda.

My mother says that I did it well because I did it with love, I think it is so, because to tell the truth I am very bad at handicrafts, but I think I did it very well for my clumsy hands! Thanks for your comment.

Even if it didn't look great, a child is happy with such simple things, I remember my daughter being in awe for drawings I'd rather throw in the bin haha.. It's very creative what you made and you know what, the internet is filled with ideas to help you create things..

That's true, my son got so excited about this, that at one point I had to ask him to be quiet because he was literally jumping with emotion, first because I had done it and second because it was for him.

This strategy is amazing and super simple to do in our homes, a fun and colorful way to learn numbers, I am also very bad at math, but I think that if I had had this kind of strategies since my childhood the situation would be totally different. Thanks for sharing.

To tell the truth I hated mathematics, and when I was a child I was very bad at it, until I decided to study engineering hahaha, I do not remember having something like that to learn numbers, and the idea is that children do things with pleasure and love so they can learn better.

This is a good way to introduce numbers in children's education, since they tend to learn them more easily through relationships with objects, giving them order and counting the amount of them. Your material is a good strategy.

That's exactly what I'm looking for by doing this, most kids learn faster when they associate things, and associating quantities with numbers I think is a great idea.

A fun strategy without a doubt I really like the coloring and the way the children can vary the colors and mix them, it reminded me that as a child I loved to play with my abacus and then I discovered that it was a way in which I had learned to count. I think these kinds of strategies are not only eye-catching, but they also awaken creativity and imagination in children. Very good job

Exactly that is another thing I like about this number screen, in fact it just occurred to me reading you, that it can be transformed into a kind of abacus, placing an extra frame and instead of string, place wire that makes it more stable so that my son can play with it without fear of disarming it.

I like to think that you don't have to be born to craft, but more born to like to craft. I certainly wasn't born talented in that area (my eldest daughter and husband are really good at it, but not that interested in creativity), however, I'm persistent and keep practicing because I love crafting things.

Your Mathias makes me smile, but he sounds like quite the handful for you. You are one amazing mom, likely with more patience than you realise. 💚

Mathias is my greatest teacher after my parents, since he was born he has taught me to practice patience, which I admit I was not at all good at, even to eat he takes his time, he talks, goes around and around, at first I was angry, and then I understood that he is like that for many other things, and that as he grows up discipline will make him improve that aspect, but meanwhile you have to let him be a happy child. He has taught me to discover things about me that I didn't even know existed, for example this facet of making crafts, inventing masks with the protectors of the electronic equipment, cars with little boxes and things like that for him to play with, because like every child he prefers that kind of things than the toys I buy him.

My eldest daughter brought some lessons to me as well, now I think about it. We're a quiet family, but she never stopped making noise from the day after she was born. 😆

That doesn't look like bad at crafts to me XP I on the other hand am actually bad at crafts and thus doing something like this never even crossed my radar XD

Associating amounts with numbers even helps adults x_x I don't read or process numbers very well but am pretty good when I can see amounts (even huge ones XD).

Cool of you to donate the thing to the school once you're done with it :D
