Fruit and Veg Counters
These multicoloured fruit and vegetable counters are ideal for teaching students the different physical features of plant species in biology class. Alternatively, the counters can help to teach foundational mathematics such as addition, subtraction, and sequencing.
Check out the themed counters kit which comes with 536 individual counters and 6 different themes.
More About our Fruit and Veg Counters
The vegetable counters come as corn, cucumber, garlic, eggplant, carrot, and capsicum. We also sell a selection of fruit counters including grapes, bananas, apples, oranges, strawberries, and blueberries. Each counter comes in a distinguishable colour to encourage grouping.
In class, students can group different counters and make fraction and addition problems based on the amount they have. The counters also come in handy during science classes for viewing small objects through a microscope.
Activity Ideas
Written and Spoken
The counters can be used as a visual aid for storytelling during literacy classes. Furthermore, students can practise their written and verbal skills by describing the features of the counters or listing the names.
Count and Categorize
For another categorizing game, look no further than the vegetable counters. A pair of students can grab a handful and sort them based on individual fruit, vegetable, or colour. The first person to finish grouping wins.
Fraction Action
Have a go taking a random handful of counters out of the box and separating them by fruit, vegetable, or colour. The result will serve as the basis upon which you can make fraction observations, i.e., 1/4 of this group are purple grapes.
