Number Formation Rhymes!!!

Happy New Year from all the Early Years Team!!!

We have been learning some rhymes at school to help us with writing our numbers.
We thought it might be helpful for you to have them as well.

The children are beginning to use them independently.

Here they are:


Around and around we go.

That’s how we make a zero.

 
Top to bottom then it’s done.
This is the way we make a one.

Around and back on a railway track.
Two! Two! Two!

 
Around a tree and around a tree.
That’s the way we make a three.

 
Down and across and then one more.
That’s the way we make a four.

 

Hat on top take a dive.
That’s the way we make a five.

 

Stir it around and give it a mix.
That’s the way we make a six.

 

Across, then down so easy its heaven.
That’s the way we make a seven.

 
Make an ‘s’ then close the gate.
That’s the way we make an eight.

 

Make a loop and then a line.
That’s the way we a make a nine.
