• Have a telephone on hand so learners can become familiar with the numbers on the phone. Instructor or another learner can say a telephone number and the learner pushes the numbers on the phone.
• Instructor writes names of learner's family members and learner fills in the blank with the age. (e.g. Ahmed is years old.)
• Have a set of number cards as well a set of cards with the word of the number on them. Match the number with the word.
• Ask simple 'how many' questions. Learner writes the number as his answer.
• You can use this opportunity to enhance or reinforce vocabulary already learned by asking, "How many sweaters/pencils/bedrooms do you have?"

Number Bingo

Create your own set of Number Bingo cards by copying the blank Bingo Card in this kit. Ask learners to fill in the spaces with numbers. Learner or instructor calls out the numbers, other players cover the numbers as they hear them. A variation of this is to write the number words in the spaces. You can also use old calendar pages for Bingo cards.

Number Fish

Pre-teach the question, "Do you have a 3?" and "Yes, here you are" or "No, sorry, I don't." Have two sets of number cards or a regular pack of cards without the Jack, Queen, King, and ace. Deal a few cards to each player. Put the remaining cards upside down in the middle of the table. One person starts by choosing a card in their hand and asking if another person has that card. He asks, "Do you have a 10?" If the answer is "yes", the person gives the asker the card and he puts it together with his card on the table. If the answer is 'no', the asker picks up a card from the pile of cards in the middle of the table. The idea is to get pairs of numbers. This reinforces the recognition as well as the names of the numbers.
