What is Subitizing?
Subitizing is the important mathematical skill of instantly being able to see "how many" without needing to count each one individually when numbers are represented by objects such as dots, tally marks, ten frames, or fingers being held up.
We do this with dice where we can just look at it quickly and we instantly know what number it represents without having to count each dot.
How Can Students Practice Subitizing?
There are many ways for students to practice subitizing, but, I have a fun way to do it with these color by number sheets. This set has a St. Patrick's Day theme, so it is perfect to use in March to practice those subitizing skills.
When having young students complete a color by number sheet, I often have the students color the key at the top of the page so that they can see at a glance what number goes with each color.
Because this is subitizing practice, students should be able to look at the pictures and determine the number. However, students who are still working on this skill can individually count any numbers they can't immediately recognize.
When Can I Use These St. Patrick's Day Subitizing Color By Number Sheets?
If you are using these color by number sheets in the classroom, you can use them as a math center, extra practice with a small group, sent home as extra practice, or even done as a whole group activity.
This set of subitizing color by number sheets comes with 8 different sets and answer keys, so you can actually use them in a variety of ways!
