Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Identify numbers missing before, after or between supplied numerals within 1–20
Write numerals to complete short counting sequences
Teaching tips
Have students say each surrounding number aloud before writing the missing one, to reinforce the connection between counting sequence and the written numeral.
Assign one page per session as a quick warm-up, since each of the 10 pages is a complete, independent round of practice.
Use with students who have already mastered counting to 10, per the file's own suggested starting point, before moving them into the full 1-20 range.
