Match Each Set to Its Smallest Number

Have the child say each number out loud before choosing. If a pair is hard, count out that many blocks for each number and line them up to see which row is longer.

Find the smallest of three numbers in each jar and draw a line to the lid with that number. The directions on the page read: Look at the three numbers in each jar. Find the smallest number. Draw a line from the jar to the lid with that number. The page opens with a worked example, and an answer key is included.

Yes, both. We made it for Preschool comparing numbers, 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 larger and smaller numbers. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

20 printable worksheets, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

These are written for preschool children, roughly ages 3-5. Start with the first few pages, use the free preview to judge the fit, and come back to harder ones as your child gets steadier.

No. Most pages ask children to circle, trace, match, color, or cut and paste, and a few ask for a single number. A grown-up can read the instructions aloud, so children do not need to read yet.
