Why Do Kids Need To Know Number Recognition?
NUMBER PRACTICE WORKSHEETS
AN ESSENTIAL PART OF LEARNING EARLY MATH INCLUDES NUMBER RECOGNITION. WHEN CHILDREN CAN RECOGNIZE NUMBERS THEY CAN START TO COUNT AND WRITE THE NUMBERS.
Number recognition can seem like a daunting task for some children. Our kids need more than just flash cards or a picture on a board to fully comprehend the concept of a number.
One of the reasons I love these printable number 10 tracing worksheets is that our kids get the opportunity to explore in so many ways.
Here are a few times throughout your day where you can use the activities:
- rainy days
- small groups
- extra practice
- homework
- math centers
In addition to learning to count, the free printable worksheets help children develop other foundational math skills.
Below are questions that you can ask your students:
- What do you wish you had 10 of?
- Can you show 10 on your fingers? Can you show it on one hand/two hands?
- What is a pattern you can count using 10s?
- Describe with words how you write the number 10.
- What would you buy with $10?

Why Do Kids Have To Learn Numbers?
There is a whole list of reasons for children to learn numbers. This includes counting, recognizing, writing, and grouping.
Develops Automaticity
When the process of identifying 10 takes up time and becomes laborious, it makes it difficult for a child to solve problems then move beyond and add 10+2 or subtract 10-5. Repeated practice on math worksheets results in a strong number sense that is necessary later.
Improves Number Sense
Knowing that 10 is greater than 1, or less than 20, is an important piece of understanding numbers. As children learn to identify numbers on a number line in sequence, they begin to make important comparisons and understand quantity.
Enhances Handwriting
Writing numbers is difficult for children. Their hand muscles are still developing and they are still learning writing vocabulary, like straight line, curved line, start at the top/middle/bottom. Every chance to practice writing numbers or spelling out number names makes formation easier the next time.
Teaches Grouping
Counting groups of objects or matching a number with a group helps kids begin to “subitize,” or be able to recognize a group of 10 without actually counting each singular object. Subitizing is an important math skill because it takes away the labor of counting each group every time.
“My multi-aged group loved this even more than I thought they would! “
My kiddos love this! I use it for early finishers or in the morning while they are staggering in during breakfast. They are very engaged and enjoy playing!
