It's a teacher's dream! A fun-filled traditional Christmas Nativity, which teaches and reinforces the Mathematics Curriculum!
We believe passionately in the power of music. In all the Number Fun materials music is specifically used to support the teaching of Mathematics. If you are looking for a new angle on the Christmas story then this is the production for you!
In the enchanting script, two children travel back in time on the Time Rocket, to visit Bethlehem at the time of the birth of Jesus. Songs such as Knock, Knock and Shepherd Pete, tell the story of the nativity whilst reinforcing the Maths concepts the children need to master.
Also included at the back of the book are some great ideas to help make the most of the Maths covered in the book, with cross-curricular ideas. The children can also make a stunning book using our Book Art section!
