Particular attention is given to the contrast between the teen numbers (13-19) and the multiples of ten (20,30,40 etc), as this is a difference that ESL learners often have trouble with. All the numbers from 0 to 20 are included as these are the most common, but only some from 20 to 100 are used, as including every number up to a hundred would be somewhat excessive. These groupings were chosen to give a broad range to practice with while trying to avoid repetition of similar numbers. Students can see all the numbers that will be used in the game and they can click to hear them spoken.ġ3 to 19 & 20 to 90 - comparing 'teen' numbers to 'ty' numbersġ00 to 990 - mid-size numbers ending in tenġ000 to 100,000 - large numbers in more detail This is done by displaying numbers on the screen just before the main game screen. While numbers as a topic is quite basic for ESL learners, it is possible that some of the higher numbers may be completely new to some students and so they need some guidance on how they sound. The second aim is to present or introduce numbers for any students who do not know them. The hope is that this will increase familiarity and give practice in listening to how numbers sound. This is done through the mini-game part in which students listen to audio and then click on the matching number. The main aim of this game is to practice using numbers in English. While this game was primarily made for ESL students, young children may also find it useful. The mini-game part allows students to practice listening and reading the numbers. Students can click on the numbers to hear them spoken and see them written. This is a small game for learning numbers in English.
