Number Names Matching Worksheet for Preschoolers
This worksheet layers two skills for children ages 4-5: unscrambling the letters of a number-name word and then matching that word to its correct numeral. Unscrambling requires children to recognize familiar letter sequences, an early word-recognition skill, while matching reinforces that written number words correspond to specific quantities. Together these tasks push number-word literacy a step further than simple copying or tracing.

How to use this worksheet
Look at the scrambled letters for the first number name together and say the letters aloud to figure out which word they spell. Once your child identifies the correct word, have them write the unscrambled spelling neatly on the dotted line provided. Next, ask your child to find the numeral on the right side of the page that matches the number word they just wrote and draw a connecting line. Continue this same two-step process for each remaining number name on the worksheet.
