Pick a skill and begin

These four activities cover the foundation children use again and again: recognizing numerals, counting accurately, comparing groups, and noticing number patterns.

A different sheet every time

Printable practice that stays useful

Generate new problems before printing so siblings, students, and repeat practice do not all receive the same sheet. Add a learner name, show the answer key when needed, and use the browser to print or save a PDF.

From real objects to written numbers

Help counting make sense

Young learners do best when they can see, touch, and organize a quantity before being asked to recognize or write its numeral. Start with small groups, move one item for each number word, and then connect the completed group with a number card.

  • Move each object after it has been counted.
  • Use ten frames to make groups easier to see.
  • Compare two groups before introducing symbols.
  • Repeat with a fresh arrangement instead of memorizing a picture.

Practice one-to-one correspondence or follow the full teaching sequence.

Know what to practice next

Use the child’s current behavior as the guide. Accurate touching and counting come before speed; recognizing a numeral comes after the quantity has meaning.
