Write and Name Numbers to 20

Here's a great interactive math activity you can use with your first grade class to help them practice number recognition in word and numeral form. This online math practice session uses ten frames as visual aids to help students identify numbers in both written and numeral form. Questions are presented in multiple choice format. Students will answer a variety of question types, such as: "Choose the dots that show the number sixteen"; "Choose the word that matches the number eighteen"; and "Count and tell how many dots."

This first grade number recognition lesson includes several features that help students understand writing and naming numbers to twenty. Students can click on the hint button when they need a little extra help answering a question. They will be shown a relevant pictorial clue, such as a chart of the numbers one through twenty in both word form and number form. A detailed explanation page will pop up when students answer a question incorrectly. This explanation page will include an age-appropriate illustration of how to solve the problem correctly. Your students will move through the lesson having learned from prior mistakes.

Additional helpful features you'll notice as your students practice identifying numbers in written and numeral form up to twenty include: a progress tracker to show children how many questions they've answered in the lesson; a score-tracker to tell them how many problems they have solved correctly; and a speaker icon, which allows students to hear the question read out loud to them in a clear voice. Our speaker icon is a great option for teachers who have ESL/ELL students, or students who excel at auditory learning.
