Students practice their counting skills and recognizing numbers on this worksheet.
Each page starts with a number line from 0 to 9. Each number is accompanied by its spelling so students can reference it as they work. Pages include at least 6, but up to 11 problems that invite them to count and recognize the spelling of each number. For example, students might count the number of heart cookies. Underneath each set of items are two spelled numbers. Students circle the correct answer and cross out the incorrect answer. If they count 8 heart cookies, they would circle "eight" and cross out "seven."
Other sections display numbers, and students have to find the word that matches. For example, the number 9 might be shown with "nine" and "six" as options. Students cross off "six" and circle "nine." Every page features one example showing how to cross off and circle the correct answer.
A lot of connections have to be made with each number from 0 to 10. Young students have to practice counting objects, writing and recognizing written numbers, and associating those numbers with their spelled counterparts. This ensures they have a solid understanding of the numbers themselves so they can use their knowledge to progress in mathematics.
Students can count objects and write the number. Students who need more support could trace the number, while more proficient students could write the number from memory. You can make the activity more challenging by showing two dotted numbers, and students have to trace the one that correctly represents the number of items displayed.
Students can count items or see numbers and circle the correct spelling of the number. Students with more proficiency can match the items and correct spelling of multiple numbers by drawing lines between them.
