Encourage tracing with a pencil to further develop fine motor skills and reinforce number formation.
Prompt the child to continue their strokes through "pencil glides," structural features found in some stroke paths.
Facilitate familiarization by having the child re-trace and connect the stencil number, comparing their work to the sample printed on the template.
Support skill progression by having the child recopy traced numbers until they can incorporate them into words or series.
Foster creativity and cognitive development by encouraging the child to pair numbers to create more complex numerical concepts.
