About this resource

Acorn Teen Number Puzzles This 4-piece acorn puzzle set helps teach Foundation students to count, recognise numbers, and develop number sense for teen numbers 11-20. Students match pieces showing the numeral, number word, representation with items, and symbolic form for each teen number. Use the puzzles in small groups or centres to assess number skills. File folder games, baking tray activities, morning tubs, and cut-and-paste crafts make the puzzles versatile. Laminate them for reuse. Skills include rote counting to 20, reading number words from eleven to twenty, counting concrete objects, fine motor skills, and understanding 10 as a base unit. Adapt activities for whole-class, small-group, individual, or centre use. These autumn-themed acorn puzzles turn essential number practice into hands-on fun!
