Children love counting up and down, especially down to zero. Our rocket worksheets have a starting number and the next two numbers need completing as the count down commences! There is a number line to help, once again we keep to small numbers, five and below, but the count down won't always reach zero.

Start with the number given inside the flag and, working to the left, count down and write the next number. There is a number line to help for this set of pages which keeps to small numbers up to five. Encourage counting up and down out loud and don't forget all those number rhymes!
