FAQ
How do I use this trace number words worksheet?

Read the number word together, then ask the child to touch each star as they count. Point out that 'three' and '3' mean the same thing.
What does this worksheet teach?
⌄
One number word fills each page, from one to ten. Children trace the word, count the stars and write the matching numeral in the box. It joins early writing with counting on the same page.
Can I use this trace number words worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for Preschool handwriting, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with trace number words. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
