"Counting Hippos" is an engaging and colourful maths teaching resource designed for early years foundation stage (EYFS) pupils. This interactive PowerPoint presentation aims to help young learners practice counting up to 10 in a fun and interactive way. The resource features a series of slides with adorable hippo illustrations, prompting children to count the number of hippos presented. The lesson begins with an opportunity to listen to a counting song, setting a musical and enjoyable tone for the learning activity. As the slides progress, children are invited to count the hippo family members, with numbers ranging from 0 to 10, enhancing their counting skills and number recognition in a visual and entertaining context.

Complementing the PowerPoint, there are various worksheets where children can count hippos in different scenarios, such as counting hippos of specific colours or within certain boxes. These exercises not only reinforce counting skills but also introduce basic colour recognition and provide an opportunity for children to engage with the content through colouring activities. For example, one worksheet asks learners to colour a certain number of hippos in specified colours, while another challenges them to identify the number of hippos in each box. These interactive and hands-on activities are designed to make learning to count an enjoyable experience for young students, with the added benefit of answers provided to aid in self-assessment and to support educators in verifying the children's understanding of the concepts taught.
