Number Sense Activities - 0 to 20 Pack
The Number Sense Activities – 0 to 20 Pack includes individual worksheets for each number from 0 to 20, designed to build foundational numeracy through structured, hands-on practice. Each page includes consistent tasks to reinforce understanding of each number:
• Circle the number on a number line
• Trace the numeral
• Show the number on a ten frame
• Represent it with tally marks
• Colour the number word
• Draw a representation
• Write the numbers before and after
This pack supports early learners in developing fluency and confidence with number identification, counting, representation, and sequencing.
A blank number sheet is also included to extend students.

Learning goals
- We are learning to read, write and order numbers to 20 using concrete materials, connecting quantities, numerals and number names.
- We are learning to recognise and name the number of objects in a collection up to 5 using subitising.
- We are learning to count forwards and backwards up to 20.
- We are learning to compare and order numbers to 20 using words such as ‘more’, ‘less’, ‘same’ or ‘first’, ‘second’, ‘third’.
- We are learning to subitise small collections of objects.
