Learn to Write Numbers 11-20

This activity is part of my  Learn to Write Numbers  resources. Be sure to click over to get all the fun printables and ideas.

With little ones in the house, it takes lots of practice to learn to write numbers . So when a reader requested that I make printables for numbers 11-20, it was pretty easy to say yes.

These printables are a little different from the original number series . The original has poems whereas these do not. Also in an effort to keep the papers from getting way too crowded with items to count, I put a single bug on the sheet.

The kids should draw in dots on the bug to equal the number they are currently learning to write. Just a little math reinforcement.

Like the original printables, these come in two different versions. First is the preschool version that has large boxes for younger kids who are first learning to form the numbers, but don’t have the fine motor control needed to make the numbers on a line.

The other version of the printable has a few numbers to trace the lines and then a space for your young writer to practice a few numbers on his own.

They come in one PDF with all the files — easy to download and print.

Choose the version of the printable that suits your purposes the best or feel free to download both versions.

Number Sense Activities and Lessons for Kids

Math tips and strategies for building number sense to 20 in Kindergarten and first grade: An extensive list of number sense activities and resources are included: books, materials, math manipulatives, and FREE activities!

The math tips and strategies you need for building number sense to 20 are right here. You will have everything you need to quickly implement and bring a wealth of number sense activities, games, and centers into your classroom or home.

Building Number Sense to 20

The activities, books, resource suggestions (including a FREE one) cover a ton of number sense concepts and are perfect for Kindergarten and first grade. Plus, find valuable number sense materials and manipulative suggestions, as well as freebies you can access today! Warning: It’s LONG but filled with so much you won’t want to miss anything!

Why is Building Number Sense Important?

Children need opportunities to learn and experience numbers. Learning to count, identify numbers, and understand quantity are a few of the essential concepts. Repeated experiences build understanding and fluency with numbers. These experiences help expand knowledge and learn new ideas. A strong number sense is vital for future understanding of more complex math topics.

The activities below are ones that have been used successfully. Use them as they are described or adapt them to your own needs. Be flexible. Have conversations about numbers and encourage questions. When there is an opportunity to order, count, match, or describe with a child, go for it! They benefit from seeing numbers in natural, fluid ways.

Make time for fun and engaging number activities daily and watch fluency develop.

Number Sense Concepts & Activities

Build number sense through counting.

It is crucial to count with children every day. Repeated oral counting helps them hear what numbers sound like and to learn their order. Using math manipulatives , like counting chips , can help build a connection to verbal counting and counting objects. This one-to-one counting is an important skill that needs to be practiced often.

• Count out loud as a class starting at one and building to higher and higher numbers.
• Sit with a partner or in a circle and take turns counting by 1’s.
• As counting develops, teach number patterns and counting by 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s.
• Use a number chart to see what numbers look like visually. Point to each number as it is said.
• Encourage kids to practice one-to-one counting with small objects. Have small groups of objects set up in a center for them to count.
• Provide number cards (like those seen below) for kids to represent with counting chips .

Build Number Sense by Matching Numbers to Quantities

Provide materials for kids to count and connect with objects and numbers. This encourages children to see that numbers are more than words. Teach children that numbers have many representations, such as dots, fingers, counters , numerals, objects, ten frames , etc.

• Match two different types of objects together, such as five counting bears and a domino that shows five dots.
• Use links to create a number chain for a number.
• Work up to showing quantity with more than two types of objects (as seen in the photo).
• Have many different items available for activities, such as dice , dominoes , number magnets , bears , counting chips , cubes , and number cards.

• Match number cards from a card deck or game of Uno with dots on dominoes. Find every number combination on the dominoes .

• Complete number puzzles that have a different number representation on each piece. They help kids see that numbers can be modeled in many ways. These number puzzles to 20 are available as a FREE download further on.

• Encourage one-to-one counting with clip cards. Kids count groups of objects and clip the numeral that matches to the correct quantity.

• Ten frames are great for organizing numbers so that they can be easily counted. Matching numeral cards with ten frame representations is simple, yet effective at connecting quantity with numbers.

Build Number Sense with Number of the Day

When kids see numbers in many ways at once in a repeatedly, their number sense develops. Pick a number of the day starting at one and dissect it during your math block.

• Learn about a specific number for each day that you have been at school. Teach and dissect that number during calendar time. Represent that number on a number line, count to that number, show that number with straws or cubes , etc.
• Use a number of the day poster or anchor chart to break numbers down. Create your number of the day poster with the FREE poster templates .
• Encourage kids to participate and show their understanding on paper or mini whiteboards . Ask a question, such as “How do we show 5 with tally marks?” and allow them time to try on their own. This makes an excellent fluency building warm-up to math lessons.
• Read more tips on starting a number of the day routine in your classroom.

Build Number Sense by Ordering Numbers

Provide opportunities for kids to put numbers in order. While they put numbers or objects with numbers on them into the correct order, they are counting and building number sense.

• Provide opportunities with using a number line and number chart that puts numbers in order for us.
• Give sets of numbers to order correctly by finding them on the number line .
• Cover different numbers on a number chart with sticky notes and ask kids for the missing numbers.
• Build Lego stacks by putting the pieces together in an order written on the blocks.

• Work together with a partner to order number cards from 0 to 20. Create a number caterpillar like the one seen below.

• Number puzzles are a fun way to order numbers. Put the strips in the right order to reveal a picture.

• Puzzles are simple and easy to create. Take an old puzzle and write numbers on the back of each piece.
• Grab a piece of paper and write numbers in rows. Cut out pieces randomly and trade with a partner. Put the puzzle back together again for practice.

• Complete a number order maze starting at 0. This activity can be reused when put into a pocket protector.

Build Number Sense with Place Value Activities

Teaching kids about place value should begin with teaching them to see ten in many ways. Move on to illustrating numbers with base ten blocks .

• Practice making groups of ten things. Group straws, beans, counters, or any small objects.
• Teach counting by 10’s to count groups. Extend to teaching groups first and then singles.
• Make groups of ten to get to the 100th day.
• Show and examine a tens block and ones block . Discuss that a tens block has ten ones put together.
• Use base ten blocks to represent numbers. Do plenty of examples where kids must use and count blocks. Use a chart to help count the blocks.
• Say “Show (or draw) me 14 with place value blocks!”
• Represent the number of tens and ones on place value mats (seen below). Ask questions like “How many ones are there?” or “How many groups of ten?”. Make sure they understand what each number within the number stands for (i.e., the 1 in 18 is a ten and not a one).

• Represent a number in different ways: expanded form, standard form, word form, numeral, etc. Worksheets like the one below, can help build this connection.

Reading and Writing Numerals

Kids are constantly surrounded by numbers in their environment. They quickly learn to recognize the individual numerals 0 to 9 through different experiences. Continue to encourage this familiarity by having numbers on the wall. Posters , number lines , and calendars are helpful tools.

• Build numbers with playdough in a math center. Even something as simple as this playdough numbers activity here .
• Print numbers from 0 to 9 daily in different ways – in booklets, on whiteboards during math lessons, etc.
• Draw numbers on paper and give students do-a-dot markers or bingo dabbers to dot numbers.

• Use a Boogie Board (seen below) or whiteboard to practice numbers over and over quickly.

• Trace numbers frequently and repeatedly to build coordination and correct form. The mini-book below encourages this, as well as locating numbers.

• Encourage the correct formation of numbers by teaching it explicitly. The posters (seen below) are helpful tools to use and post on the wall.
• Catchy number poems help students visualize and remember number formation. Use your whole body to make actions or draw in the air.

Reading and Writing Number Words

Teach kids how to read number words as they learn to read. Teach each number word one at a time and how to spell them phonetically (when applicable).

• Have number posters with both the numeral and number word on it.
• Include number words on spelling lists so that kids learn to read and spell number words.
• Use a number of the day routine to teach and focus on one word each day.
• Match numbers word cards with numeral cards (seen below).
• Play memory with a partner with number words and numeral cards. Look for pairs (twelve and 12).

• Build recognizing and speed with mental math flash cards. Flashcards to kids, and they race to call out what they see (tally, numerals, number words, etc.).

Build Number Sense by Counting On and Back

Teach the strategy of counting on and back from a number to prepare kids for addition and subtraction.

• Give students a number and a group of small objects to count on. Ask, “How many more do I have?” given 7 to start and a group of 9 counters to count on with.
• Play games with small objects and decks of cards where counting on is needed.
• Play a group counting game called ‘Around the World.’ Say a number, and each person counts on and says the next number as you go around the circle.
• Use small objects to count on or back from a number given ( cubes , counters , dice , etc.).
• Put numbers in backward order. Take the ordering activities seen above and reverse them.

Build Number Sense through Estimating

Provide lots of opportunities for kids to guess how many things they see in their day to day lives. Ask prompting questions to encourage this thinking. Make sure kids know that they are estimating and that these are just guesses. Stress that estimates do not need to be exact but that they should be thoughtful. With more practice, estimations should become closer to the actual number of objects.

• Fill clear or open containers with different sized objects for kids to guess. Keep them simple and work up in difficulty and size of objects. Smaller objects and bigger containers are usually harder.
• Create an Estimation Station,” where containers are set up with objects inside. Kids can take a close look and make estimates.

• As a whole group activity, grab a pile of objects to show quickly. Cover them and have kids make guesses.
• Play ‘Show & Hide’ with a partner. Use a cup and put some small counting bears inside. Quickly show a partner, and then hide them. They make an estimate, and then you count together to check.

Build Number Sense by Comparing Numbers

As familiarity with numbers grow, so does an ability to compare numbers with each other. Provide opportunities to compare numbers daily. Ask questions about which number is bigger, smaller, or the same.

• Use a chart or number line to compare numbers.
• Use small objects to make comparing easier. Say “Show 11 and 15 with cubes”. Ask, “Which number is smaller?”.
• Teach the symbols < > and = and what they each mean. Use the alligator strategy (The alligator likes to eat the bigger number) to remember the signs and what they mean.

• Compare numbers with math tools and indicate the correct symbol on clip cards (seen below). As kids become fluent, they should recognize the correct symbol without support.

Worksheets for numbers 11-20

Looking for free worksheets to help your child make sense of the numbers 11-20 ?  Here you go!

(This post contains affiliate links.)

Have you seen my handwriting worksheets for numbers 1-10 ?  That set is one of my most popular printables.  But if you’re a regular follower of this blog, you know I don’t share a lot of worksheets.

It’s not that I don’t love making them! In fact, I’ve been creating worksheets for at least thirty years, since I was eight and forced my little sister to learn to read (yes, I just revealed my age right there). But I limit the number of worksheets here because I don’t believe it’s how young kids should be spending most of their time.  In fact, you can view all my hands-on math lessons and printables on my math activities page .

Once in a while, I put a twist on regular worksheets to create a meaningful learning activity. I think these number worksheets fit the bill!

This morning my Three asked for a coloring page. I asked if he wanted to do a numbers page.  He enjoyed the #1-10 pages so much that it wasn’t a surprise when he agreed.

The handwriting practice on these pages is just enough for him, as we’re doing very little handwriting practice yet (as you can see, he hasn’t mastered the correct pencil grasp).

The number identification section using Do-a-Dot markers was helpful, since he can count to thirty but is still learning to recognize numbers past 10.

And as you can see above, he really liked the coloring at the bottom of the page.

Here he’s checking his work by counting the pictures he’s colored.

Did you know?

After putting eleven stickers in the top box, he did the final portion of the worksheet.

I really like this part of the page: he uses colorful counters (we love the ones you see pictured !) to fill in the number on ten frames.  Since his older siblings do a lot with ten frames beginning in kindergarten, I like that he’s getting an introduction to them.

Your counting printables are wonderful.

I was wondering, do you have anything on numeral word name recognition?

In Trinidad children learn to spell the numeral word names at age 5-6.

Thank you in advance

June 5, 2017 at 10:37 pm

Hi Janelle! No, I don’t have anything like that at the moment. I will keep it in mind for the future, though!

I can’t find a link to print from. I have searched this page multiple times but i can’t find it. Can you help me please? Sorry, it’s probably just me!

I’m glad you can find a way to use them , Marian! 🙂

October 13, 2015 at 7:46 am

They are very good and fun. I used them for my 4 years old. She got the routine after the first two sheets. What I did somehow different, I asked her to place the stickers in rows of five hoping that she will get the addition of 5’s but she did not yet. The most that she can do is 5+5= 10 without counting.

October 17, 2015 at 4:41 pm

That was a great idea, Cristina! It’s always fun to try new things and see if kids are ready for it. Before we know it, they are!

October 6, 2015 at 3:16 pm

thank you for sharing these hands on number worksheets. my students love to work on their number of the day – especially the sticker part!

October 11, 2015 at 8:09 am

You’re very welcome, Suzan!

October 5, 2015 at 8:53 pm

Love these number worksheets. My kinders are almost finished with 1-10. Now we can begin 11-20. The kids love all the ways to show each number.

So glad you can use them, Gina!

How to Teach Recognition of Numbers 11 to 20

Last Updated: April 7, 2024 Fact Checked

wikiHow is a “wiki,” similar to Wikipedia, which means that many of our articles are co-written by multiple authors. To create this article, 9 people, some anonymous, worked to edit and improve it over time. This article has been fact-checked, ensuring the accuracy of any cited facts and confirming the authority of its sources. This article has been viewed 133,683 times. Learn more...

Once children can recognize numbers 1 through 10, you can begin to teach them numbers 11 to 20. Understanding these numbers requires more than simple counting and recognition; it demands an awareness of tens and units and a larger sense of how numbers work. Teaching these concepts can be challenging. For ideas, scroll down to Step 1.

Introducing Numbers 11 to 20

• It may also help to incorporate the concept of a ten frame at this point, including a ten frame with the appropriate number of units. For more on ten frames, see Part 2.

• Note, however, that teaching children to count to 20 is not the same as teaching children to understand the number values. Counting needs to be accompanied by other lessons aimed at number awareness and comprehension.

• Hopscotch games work well for this purpose. Draw 10 squares on the ground, and fill them with the numbers from 1 to 10. Have children count from 1 to 10 when they hop forward and from 11 to 20 when they hop backward.

Teaching Tens and Units

• Help children visualize this concept by writing the number 11 and, next to it, showing a ten and a single unit, separated by a circle.

• For a good activity, give each child two ten frames and 20 objects of some kind. Have them create the number 11: one full ten frame, and a second ten frame with just one unit in it. Have them create the other numbers. You can also reverse the process, starting with full ten frames and taking objects away.

• Add representative numbers of objects, such as small cubes, to the ones column: a single cube next to number 1, two cubes next to number 2, and so on.
• Explain that you could represent a ten with either ten of the small cubes or one larger stick.
• Fill the tens column with sticks, one by one, and explain how these numbers would work together to create larger numbers.

Reinforcing Numbers 11 to 20 with Fun Activities

Joseph Meyer

Use playful academic activities and games to build students' math skills. Visual aids such as models, diagrams, and real-world objects transform abstract concepts into something more relatable, promoting a deeper understanding. Interactive activities enhance a student's learning by making math fun and engaging.

• You can make this game more challenging by asking harder questions – “who has the number that is two more than 13?” – or by having students break down their numbers into tens and units when they rise.

Expert Q&A

• Do your best to make these lessons fun: children learn better from enjoyable activities than they do from dry lectures. Thanks Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0
• Remember that individual children have different learning styles: some may do best when they have visual images, others may need to touch the materials themselves. Always offer a variety of lessons tailored to different learning styles. Thanks Helpful 0 Not Helpful 0

About This Article

To teach children to count from 11-20, start by introducing the fact that after 10, the next numbers are “10 plus something.” 10 plus 1 is 11, 10 plus 2 is 12, all the way through 19. Then, explain that 20 comes next, and ends with a 0 because it’s “2 10’s.” To reinforce this concept, play counting games, like counting steps while going up the stairs or playing hopscotch. Since rote memorization can help a lot, have them repeat the numbers often throughout the day, making up songs if it helps them remember.

Number Names 1 to 20

Number names 1 to 20 represent numbers from 1 to 20 in words. Learning 1 to 20 spellings requires a few tricks and the kids can easily learn them if they are taught these using proper techniques. The set of 1 to 20 spellings is a unique set in which the pattern is not a common one. While the number names from 1 to 10 can be learned easily by children, the set of spellings from eleven to twenty needs a little more attention and time. Let us learn how to write 1 to 20 spellings, the number names from eleven to twenty, and a few tips and tricks to learn 11 to 20 number names.

Number Names 1 to 20 Chart

The number names from 1 to 20 can be learned using the following chart which can help the students read and memorize the 1 to 20 spelling . The list of the number names from eleven to twenty should be given more time because children find the second set of 11 to 20 number names a bit tricky while they usually learn the 1 to 10 number names easily.

1 to 20 Spellings

1 to 20 spellings can be memorized by the kids if they regularly read and write these. Repeating the number names from 1 to 20 aloud can help them retain them. These number names from 1 to 20 are listed in the table given below.

List of Number Names from 1 to 20

☛ download number names 1 to 20 chart.

We have provided a downloadable reference sheet with the above information in an easy-to-print format. Students can practice number names from 1 to 20 for a better understanding of the decimal number system .

Tips on Number Names from Eleven to Twenty

The number names from eleven to twenty are expressed in a little different way. Here are a few tips that can help the children learn the number names from eleven to twenty.

• The eleven to twenty spellings can be taught to kids by splitting each spelling into 2 parts. For example, we know that 11 is written as eleven. So, we can split and make the kids learn it as ELE and VEN. Similarly, 12 is written as twelve. This can be split as TWE and after a pause, LVE.
• The child can be made to read it aloud at least 3 times and then write the spelling to learn it.
• Another way is to let them fill in the blanks for the spellings. For example, a worksheet can be prepared which has questions like these: 11 - E _EVE_. Similarly for 13 - TH_RTE_N. This will help them learn the spellings in a better way.
• Make the students learn just two number names in a day and let them memorize it well before moving ahead.
• Prepare a chart of the number names from 11 to 20 and paste it in front of the child where he usually studies. This will help him/her glance through the spellings more often and will passively be absorbed by the child easily.

The spellings of the number names from eleven to twenty are given below for reference.

• 11 - Eleven

12 - Twelve

13 - Thirteen

• 14 - Fourteen
• 15 - Fifteen

16 - Sixteen

17 - Seventeen

18 - Eighteen

19 - Nineteen

Grade 1 Math: Counting Numbers 11-20

Read and write numbers 11-20.

In this lesson, students learn to read and write numbers from eleven through twenty. The numbers are represented using ten frames.

Students are given the numbers eleven through twenty in one format and they write the number given in another format. Three formats are used:

• they are given the number in words and they write the number,
• they are given the number and they select the word for that number, and
• they are given a number in auditory format and they write it as a number.

Rational Counting 11-20

In this lesson, students learn how to count objects in a set that have from eleven through twenty objects. They are taught that to count, they must keep track of the objects counted. They do that in this lesson by clicking on each object which transfers the object to a ten frame. When all objects have been transferred, they then write the number that indicates how many objects were counted.

Counting: Missing Number 11-20

Students learn to fill in the missing number in the counting sequence from eleven through twenty. They are given a sequence of three numbers with one of the numbers missing, either the first, second, or third number. They enter the missing number.

Counting 11-20

Counting as addition.

In this lesson, students begin to learn about place value and how it is used in both counting and addition. Numbers from eleven through twenty are represented as a group of ten and a number of ones, or, in the case of twenty, as two groups of ten.

They also learn that the numbers eleven through twenty can be represented as the addition of ten plus a single digit, or, in the case of twenty, as ten plus ten.

The latest on the massive solar storm

By Angela Fritz, Elise Hammond and Chris Lau, CNN

Incredible lighthouse picture from Maine

From CNN's Chris Lau

Among a flurry of surreal images capturing the dazzling auroras is one taken by Benjamin Williamson of a lighthouse in Portland, Maine.

"It's one of the most incredible things I've ever seen, the awe and wonder," Williamson told CNN.

He said he used a long-exposure technique to snap the shot, but did not edit it.

Watch the full interview with Williamson here .

Things could be about to ramp up

If you still haven't seen the aurora, hold on for another 30 minutes to an hour, according to CNN meteorologist Chad Myers.

The next wave of coronal mass ejections, or CMEs, which cause the aurora, is about to arrive, he said.

"Just wait a minute because things are going to start to ramp up here," he said, adding that the increase could arrive "anytime now." "When it comes, get outside, get ready, put your coat on."

For those who are too busy to witness the phenomenon tonight, Myers said the aurora is expected to last three nights.

Why does the aurora last for a weekend?

By CNN's Chris Lau

Generally, it takes just eight minutes for light to travel 93 million miles to the Earth from the sun, but astrophysicist Janna Levin said the energized particles causing the current wave of aurora travel a lot slower, causing the phenomenon to last for the weekend.

"Some of these mass ejections are trillions of kilograms," she said. "They're slower. So they're taking longer, but still hours, maybe tens of hours."

Here's how the solar storm looks in the South and on the East Coast

The aurora was visible across the East Coast and in the South Friday.

Here's how it looked in Chester, South Carolina.

Down in Florida, waves of color swam through the sky.

Up north in New Jersey, a purple-ish haze could be seen in the sky.

Will solar storms get more intense and risky in the future?

The answer is probably not in the short term, according to astrophysicist Hakeem Oluseyi.

He said scientists study what is constantly happening on the surface of the sun and have found a pattern.

“Geological data shows us that in the past the sun was way more active than it is today. It has cycles where it goes very quiet ... and you have events that show that the solar activity was much, much greater,” he told CNN. “So there's no evidence that we're going to see those big maxima this cycle." 

But the astrophysicist also spoke of a caveat - the limitations of modern science.

“Even though it's predictable in the short term, we still don't quite understand what creates the magnetic fields in the sun,” he said, adding: “That's why NASA has so many satellites looking at the sun.”

In Pictures: Auroras light the sky during rare solar storm

From CNN Digital's Photo Team

A series of solar flares and coronal mass ejections from the sun are creating dazzling auroras across the globe .

The rare solar storm may also disrupt communications. The last time a solar storm of this magnitude reached Earth was in October 2003, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Space Weather Prediction Center.

See more photos of the aurora from tonight.

Behind dazzling aurora could lie “real danger,” Bill Nye the Science Guy says

The massive solar storm could present “a real danger,” especially with the modern world relying so much on electricity, according to Bill Nye the Science Guy , a science educator and engineer.

Scientists are warning an increase in solar flares and coronal mass ejections from the sun have the potential to disrupt communication on Earth into the weekend. Solar flares can affect communications and GPS almost immediately because they disrupt Earth’s ionosphere, or part of the upper atmosphere. Energetic particles released by the sun can also disrupt electronics on spacecraft and affect astronauts without proper protection within 20 minutes to several hours.

In comparison to tonight's event, Nye drew comparisons with another incident in 1859, known as the Carrington Event, when telegraph communications were severely affected.

“The other thing, everybody, that is a real danger to our technological society, different from 1859, is how much we depend on electricity and our electronics and so on,” Nye said. "None of us really in the developed world could go very long without electricity."

He noted that there are systems in place to minimize the impact, but “stuff might go wrong,” stressing that not all transformers are equipped to withstand such a solar event.

“It depends on the strength of the event and it depends on how much of our infrastructures are prepared for this the sort of thing,” he said.

Here's where clouds will block the view of the northern lights in the US

From CNN's Angela Fritz

After an incredibly stormy week, most of the Lower 48 has clear skies to see the northern lights. But there are some areas where clouds and rainy weather are spoiling the view.

A deck of clouds is blocking the sky in the Northeast, from parts of Virginia into Maine, as an area of low pressure spins off the East Coast.

In the Midwest, the aurora will be hard to see through thick clouds in parts of Wisconsin, Michigan — including the Upper Peninsula — and Illinois.

A stripe of clouds is tracking across Texas, including Dallas-Forth Worth, and into Louisiana.

And in the Southwest, patchy clouds across the the Four Corners region could make the northern lights difficult to spot.

Aurora seen at least as far south as Georgia

Barely visible to the naked eye, the aurora can be seen in Atlanta in the 10 p.m. ET hour. 

It is easier to see through photographs using a long exposure. The photos below, taken by CNN's Eric Zerkel and Emily Smith, used 3- and 10-second exposures.
