Chalkboard Number Line - Set of 2

When it comes to early years maths, our Chalkboard Number Line makes learning so much fun, you might just want one for yourself… although we don’t recommend using it to tally up your coffee count during morning break! Designed with EYFS numeracy games in mind, this resource is a fantastic addition to any early years maths area, whether indoors or outdoors. From building basic maths skills like counting and pattern recognition to encouraging problem solving and mathematical reasoning, this number line is as versatile as it is practical.

Perfect for engaging learners in the early years maths curriculum, the Chalkboard Number Line is the ultimate hands-on tool for promoting numeracy skills. Use it as a score board during outdoor activities, or challenge learners to write the numbers themselves to sharpen those fine motor skills and early years numeracy knowledge. It’s also a brilliant way to integrate literacy and numeracy—how about spelling out the names of numbers alongside tallying? Double the learning, double the fun!

Measuring 30cm high and 100cm long, these chalkboards are large enough for group work while remaining lightweight enough to move around your outdoor educational setting or EYFS maths corner. They’re also sold in a handy pack of two, which means you can set up numeracy games in multiple areas or keep one for structured learning and the other for free play. And while these boards are made to be durable, the colours will fade over time—just think of it as their way of encouraging regular maths refreshers! 

So why not bring this all-rounder into your classroom or outdoor learning space? It’s a fun, practical way to enhance numerical skills, improve reasoning, and even sneak in some basic mathematical skills through problem solving. Who knew early years maths activities could be so engaging?

Features

• Pack of two number line chalkboards: Perfect for setting up multiple learning stations or for use in different areas. Each board measures 30cm x 100cm, making them ideal for group or individual activities. Lightweight and easy to move for flexible use.
• Durable chalkboard surface: Designed for regular use in EYFS maths areas, both indoors and outdoors. The surface is sturdy enough for frequent writing and erasing, but colours will fade over time due to outdoor exposure.
• Numbered from 1 to 20: Provides an excellent visual aid for teaching basic mathematical concepts like counting, sequencing, and recognising patterns. The large surface allows ample space for learners to add their own marks or annotations.
• Lightweight and portable design: Easily move the chalkboards around your learning space. They’re perfect for both structured learning activities and free play environments in early years settings.
• No wall fixings included: Gives you the freedom to use the boards on the ground, propped up, or fixed to a wall in a way that best suits your classroom or outdoor area.

Benefits

• Promotes numeracy skills in an engaging way: The large, interactive surface encourages hands-on learning, making abstract mathematical concepts like counting and sequencing more tangible and fun for early years learners.
• Supports EYFS numeracy games and early years maths curriculum: Helps learners develop foundational maths skills through play and exploration. Ideal for teaching problem solving, reasoning, and basic maths skills in a practical, enjoyable manner.
• Encourages literacy and numeracy integration: Combine numerical and literacy skills by having learners write out the names of numbers or even create simple maths problems and solutions directly on the board.
• Boosts collaborative learning and social interaction: Perfect for group activities, promoting teamwork and communication among learners as they work together on numeracy challenges or EYFS maths activities.
• Fosters creativity alongside early years maths learning: The chalkboard design allows children to draw patterns, write numbers, or even create their own maths games, providing opportunities to develop both numerical skills and creative thinking.
