Police Counting 1 to 6 Cut and Paste

Use it in a community helpers unit, at a center, with a small group or as a take-home page. Children count groups of 1 to 6 objects, match a group to its number and recognize the numbers 1 to 6.

Six boxes of police pictures to count: badges, police hats, a radio, police cars, whistles and cones, from one to six of each. Six number cards, 1 to 6, sit at the bottom to cut out. The directions on the page read: Count the things in each box. Cut out the numbers at the bottom. Glue the correct number in each square. An answer key is included.

Yes. We made it for Preschool to Kindergarten community helpers, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.

Pick one setting, such as the fire station, post office or doctor's office, print its signs, labels and cutouts, and add a few real props. The badges and the job application form let children choose a role and take turns.

The Community Helper Counting to 10 Clip Cards, the Label the Fire Truck page, the police counting cut and paste and the two dot-to-dots have an answer key. The rest are open activities, signs and crafts.
