However, in Kiambu Sub- County, acquisition of number work skills by pre-primary school learners is low with many not able tosolve basic mathematics problems. The study sought to assess the influence of utilization of graphic materials on acquisition of number work skills among pre-primary school learners in Kiambu Sub- County, Kiambu County, Kenya. The study was guided by The Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning and Skills Acquisition Theory.The study adopted mixed methodology and thus, applied concurrent triangulation research design. Qualitative data were analyzed thematically along the objectives and presented in narrative forms. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively using frequencies and percentages and inferentially using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Analysis in Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS 23) and presented using tables. The study established that pre-primary school learners’ number work skills are below average owing to inadequate use of graphic materials. The study thus recommends that pre-primary school teachers should be made to understand that these are educational components which serve to enhance teaching concepts in number work. Pre-primary school teachers should be encouraged to adopt graphic number work materials. The Ministry of Education should enforce the usage of graphic materials to supplement supply of commercial teaching aids as a critical component of pedagogy in pre-primary schools.ennumberwork skillsaudio visualsgraphic resourcesArticle
