Match Numbers to Bead Strings

Teach children to count in small chunks, for example five at a time, and to mark each picture as they go. Check the teens together, since 13 to 19 are the hardest to say.

Count the beads on each string where the red beads make 10 and match 11, 13, 16 and 20. The directions on the page read: Count the beads on each string. The red beads make 10. Draw a line from each number to the string with that many beads. The page opens with a worked example, and an answer key is included.

Yes, both. We made it for Preschool counting, 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 count to 20. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

30 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.
