Guess the Hidden Number! (Numbers & Shapes PPT)

This interactive and engaging PowerPoint is designed for EYFS children to review both number recognition and 2D shapes in a fun, playful way.

Key Features and Learning Objectives:
Interactive Guessing Game: Each slide features a hidden number (1-10 or 1-20) completely covered by a large, familiar 2D shape (e.g., a circle, square, triangle, or rectangle).

Dual Review:

Shape Focus: Children first identify and name the 2D shape covering the number.

Number Focus: As the shape is moved or fades away, children practice number recognition by quickly identifying the revealed number.

High Engagement: The “reveal” structure turns learning into an exciting guessing game, boosting concentration and keeping energy levels high.

Simple and Clear: Uses bold, child-friendly visuals and clear numbers to support early learning.

This resource is an excellent way to consolidate learning of core mathematical concepts while providing a stimulating, whole-class activity.
