Build strong number foundations in your classroom with the Number Sense Posters Rainbow. Designed to support students as they learn to read, record, and understand the number system, these posters are a bright and purposeful addition to your maths resources. With their colourful Rainbow theme, they are engaging, practical, and perfectly suited to classrooms that value both style and functionality.

The Number Sense Posters Rainbow include posters for numbers 0–30, as well as each decade up to 100. Each poster provides multiple representations of the number, including the numeral, the written word, MAB (multibase arithmetic blocks), tens frames, and tally marks. This approach ensures students are exposed to a wide range of representations, making it easier for them to connect the concrete, pictorial, and abstract aspects of number learning. By regularly seeing numbers shown in different ways, learners develop deeper understanding and stronger recall.

These posters are particularly effective for supporting number recognition, early place value skills, and counting strategies. Teachers can use them to anchor whole-class lessons, guide small group work, or provide independent references for students who need extra support. The rainbow design ensures that while they serve a serious educational purpose, they also brighten your classroom walls, making your learning environment both inviting and inspiring.
