About this resource

Missing Numbers is one of the basic skills that must be taught to children, usually at an early age, where some fun methods are used to teach children to Missing Numbers, write them, and perform addition and subtraction mentally.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Identify the missing number in a short cluster of numbers within the 1-20 range.

  • Recall and write numerals from 0-20 to complete a given number sequence.

  • Practice number recognition across ten pages of independent, non-repeating clusters.

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.

Skills covered

  • Missing-number identification — students find the blank spot in a printed cluster of 2-4 numbers and determine what number is missing.

  • Numeral writing 0-20 — students write the correct missing numeral by hand in each blank.

  • Repeated independent practice — ten non-repeating pages give students multiple rounds of the same skill without duplicate content.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Do all 10 pages use the same set of numbers?

No — each of the 10 pages has its own distinct arrangement of number clusters, so no page repeats another page's exact numbers.

Is there just one missing number per row, or can there be more?

It varies — most rows have a single blank, but some rows include more than one gap within their number cluster.
