About This Worksheet

This Foundation maths worksheet supports early number understanding through counting, recognising, representing and ordering numbers from 0 to 20. It can be used for independent practice, revision or a short teacher-led activity.

I Can Checklist

  • I can recognise numbers to 20.
  • I can count a collection carefully.
  • I can put numbers in the correct order.

How to Use It

Before starting, count a small collection of objects together and touch each object once. Ask children to explain how they know how many objects there are, then connect the quantity to its numeral.

Parent Tip

Practise counting during everyday activities such as setting the table, sorting toys or counting steps. Keep the activity playful and ask your child to predict the next number.
