Dots for the small parts
A small dot marks the exact spot, for parts a numbered square would cover: a chain, a spoke, a valve.
When to use it
A bike maintenance or workshop session, where the parts that matter are thin and close together. Lab equipment or a circuit, where a numbered square would hide the very thing it points at. A health and safety induction on the controls of a machine.

A dot marks the exact spot, because a numbered square would cover the very part it is pointing at. Pick each part from the list beside its number — the list gets shorter as you get them right.

Why the example is built this way
-
An angle where every part shows.
Pick a picture where each part is separately visible, like a straight side view. A dot on a part nobody can make out is marking a smudge.
-
Room to the right of every dot.
The dot sits on the exact spot and its number hangs to its right. Place each one where there's a little clear space beside it, so the number doesn't land on the next part.
-
Names offered, not typed.
Part names are easy to get slightly wrong, singular or plural, so Word bank is on and each blank becomes a dropdown. The list shrinks as parts come right, which keeps it a puzzle to the last dot.
