In primary school mathematics teaching, the idea of combining numbers and shapes is an important mathematical idea, which has a significant value for improving students‘ mathematical learning effect and teachers’ teaching quality. By expressing numbers visually through figures, it can assist students in understanding their knowledge, solve shapes with numbers, help students control graphical relationships, promote numbers with shapes, guide students to clarify quantitative relationships, and ultimately promote students mathematical thinking of combining numbers and shapes. Therefore, teachers in teaching should make good use of the combination of number and shape ideas as a teaching tool, the article will explore the application of the combination of number and shape ideas in primary school mathematics teaching.
