Plus Puppy - Primary Maths Addition Game

Ref:

Plus Puppy contains 4 player mats so your child can play with you and a couple of friends, if desired. Each player takes turns to throw the die and move that number of spaces along the track. They read out the sum and, if necessary, use the puppy numberline at the bottom of their mat to help them work out the answer. Once they have the correct answer, they cover that number on the dog. The winner is the player who is first to cover all of their spots on Plus Puppy.

When you play the Plus Puppy game with your child, you will very quickly see which addition bonds he/she has quick recall of and those that still need to be learned. The game will allow your child lots of opportunities to add and to see that each answer can be made in different ways.

It really is lovely to watch children's confidence increase as they develop quick recall of answers rather having to count on their fingers or use the puppy numberline. When your child is enjoying the work, you can be assured that very effective learning is taking place. This is why Plus Puppy has been so effective for over 20 years and is still proving extremely popular with young children.
