Numbers — Matching Activity

Student Task

• Review the number words as a class before handing out the worksheet.
• Have students count the objects in each picture and find the matching word in the Word Bank.
• Students write the matching letter in the box beside each picture.
• Grade using the included answer key.

Classroom Use

• Turn Part 1 into a live game first: hold up each picture card from Resource 1 and have students call out the matching letter from a word bank written on the board, before they complete the individual worksheet.

Differentiation

Support: complete only Part 1 (1-10) for a first attempt, saving Part 2 for a later lesson, or read each word bank option aloud before students begin.

Extension: have students write a full sentence ("There are seven.") next to each completed match instead of just the letter.

Answer Key & Assessment

Grade using the included answer key; use results to see which numbers still need more counting-supported practice before moving to Resource 5 (Grammar Worksheet).

Learning Objectives

• Students will be able to match a counted group of objects to its correct number word by counting and reading independently.

Teacher Tips

Have students complete Part 1 (1-10) in full before attempting Part 2 (11-20) — mastering the smaller numbers first makes the teen numbers noticeably easier to count and match.
