The jumbo dice are ideal for teaching the maths basics, coming in a wide range of shapes, colours, and sides. Learning addition/subtraction, multiplication, probability, and fractions has never been easier, with brightly coloured dice that can be spotted from across the room.
Included in our range are numbered or dotted dice with 6, 10, and 20 sides. Whilst sold individually, these dice can be purchased in bags, jars, and boxes, such as the jumbo place value dice set which comes with 24 different coloured dice.
In the classroom, these are an ideal demonstrational device for teachers due to their massive size. Alternatively, students can use these in a whole class game of cards, or pair up to ask each other maths questions related to the digits on the dice.
In a group, set up a hula hoop on the ground and try rolling your dice inside it. Every time it lands inside, write down the upwards-facing number on the dice and roll them again into the hoop. The person to reach the highest score on paper wins.
Try using the 6-sided numbered and 6-sided dotted dice together when playing games. This encourages students to translate the different digits and gain a greater understanding of mathematical language.
The jumbo PVC 6-sided numbered dice come in a bag of 10, which is perfect for practising counting. In groups of 5-10 people, each student can roll a dice and add all the upwards-facing sides together. The first person to add all the dice together wins.
