There are a large range of counting worksheets included in the Spring Math and Literacy Activities packet. These include counting from 1-50, number comparison, and skip counting worksheets.

Ten frames allow students to visually see how numbers work together and using this strategy helps build number sense skills. In the Spin and Color a Bug Ten Frame activity, students spin a number and color the matching ten frame.

Learning to identify, recognize and write numerals is an important part of early number sense development.

Pair this worksheet with math counters or blocks for students that are still developing their counting skills and recognizing numerals as a representation of a specified quantity.
