Counting

High quality printable resources and tutorials to help with counting up to 20.

In Year 1 children will gain a great deal of confidence and enjoyment from counting up to 20. The latest Maths Programme of Study expects children be able to count, read and write numbers up to 20 and then count up to 100 forwards and backwards.

They will be expected to order small numbers and place numbers on a blank number line in the correct order.

They will also be able to say one more, or one less, than any given number up to 20 and even begin to count in tens.

A great start to a lifetime of enjoyment of maths! The resources in this category will provide just the support needed to achieve success.

Counting objects and matching to numbers

Resources to help children count reliably up to 10 objects and then up to 20. An important part of this is recognising that the size of the set (how many) is given by the last number in the count. This category also includes counting two sets of objects to reach a combined total.

Counting on and back in ones

Counting on and back in ones, starting from various numbers below 10. Later this can be extended to counting on and back in the teens, up to 20.

Number lines and tracks

Our number line and number track resources are a great way of helping children to count up to 20.

Counting on and back in twos, threes, fives and tens.

Counting on in steps of more than one is a big challenge for children and our resources provide exactly the practice needed. Begin with counting on in twos before moving on to fives, tens and threes.
