Teaching tips and what to try next

Ready for kindergartners who write 1 to 10 without help and can count a full ten-frame at a glance. Saying the teen number as "ten and three more" while pointing at both frames links the spoken word to the digits. Practice the place-value side in Teen Numbers: 10 and Some More, then count higher in Counting Forward from Any Number.

10 versions, each with its own answer key

Same skill and layout, a fresh set of problems in every version, so children can keep practicing without repeating a page. Problems are not repeated between versions unless a skill has only a small number of possible problems (for example, the addition facts within 10).

About this worksheet

After children can count and write the numbers to 10, the teen numbers and 20 are the next step. These numbers are harder to write because they have two digits, and many children reverse them, writing 31 for 13. This kindergarten worksheet gives one row for each number from 11 to 20.

Each row shows two ten-frames with dots. The first frame is always full, which shows ten, and the second frame shows the extra ones. Children count the dots, trace the dotted number, and then write the number on their own in the empty box. The first version goes in counting order from 11 to 20. The other nine versions mix up the order, so children have to count each set of dots instead of following the pattern.

How to use it: point to the full frame and say "ten" together before counting on: "ten, eleven, twelve." This counting-on habit is faster and more accurate than counting every dot from one. When your child writes a teen number, remind them that the 1 comes first because it stands for the full ten. If a number comes out backward, have them trace it again with a finger and say each digit as they write it. Short, cheerful practice works better than one long session.

The answer key shows every number. To practice the numbers before this, try our Count and Trace Numbers 1-10 worksheet. For more ten-frame counting, try our Count to 20 With Ten-Frames worksheet.
