Counting objects one by one, matching quantities to numbers and recognising numerals.

What’s included

• 4 problems
• An answer key you can print with the sheet or on its own
• An on-screen version with instant marking and stars

Age and school year

Made for ages 4–7. That’s Pre-K – Grade 2 in the US, Reception – Year 3 in England, Nursery 1 – Primary 2 in Nigeria and LKG – Class 2 in India.

How to use it

• Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.
• Print the answer key too, so marking takes seconds.
• Play it on screen: answers are marked instantly and children earn stars.
• Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.

Tips for parents and teachers

1. 1Keep counters or dried beans next to the sheet so your child can build and check each answer.
2. 2Count real things first – spoons, socks, toy cars – then move to the pictures, so numbers stay meaningful.
3. 3Keep sessions to 5–10 minutes and finish with praise – young children learn best in short bursts.
