Teacher tip

Kids often write “fourty”. Point out that forty drops the u before they trace.

How to use it

  • Let kids trace with a finger before a pencil, so they feel the starting point.
  • Pair the sheet with real counters: build the number, then write it.
  • Do the first problem together under a document camera, then let kids finish on their own.

Watch for

Kids who form numbers from the bottom up. Catch it early, before the habit sets.

Talk about it

  • Which numbers look a bit alike? How can you tell them apart?
  • Which problem was the hardest? What made it hard?
