Abstract
This step-by-step video guide is a helpful introduction showing teachers and parents how to complete this activity where children will cut out eggs with numbers in words and shells with numbers in figures, then link the two ways of representing numbers. Children will also have the opportunity to count and carry out some simple sums using the cut outs.
This fun STEM challenge is aimed at primary school children.
