Number Names Matching Worksheet for Kids
This worksheet helps children ages 4-6 connect written number words, like 'five' or 'nine,' to their numeral form by reading each word and circling the matching digit. Recognizing number names in text is a skill separate from counting objects, and it becomes important as soon as children start encountering numbers written out in books, signs, or math word problems.

How to use this worksheet
Read the first number name aloud together, sounding it out slowly if needed. Ask your child which numeral they think it matches before looking at the choices provided. Have them circle the correct numeral for that word, then repeat the process for each remaining number name on the page. Once finished, go back through the page and have your child read each number name aloud one more time, pointing to the numeral they circled.
