Numbers (1-10) - Cut & Paste

What is it

Worksheets that aim to teach children to identify numbers 1 to 10 through cut and paste activities. 

Teaching Objectives

• Recognise and read numbers from 1-10.

• Strengthen fine motor control through cutting and pasting.

• Develop visual scanning and matching skills.

• Work on sustained attention and independence to complete worksheets.

• Learn and apply worksheet skills by recognising different instructions. E.g., cut, paste, match.

How to use

• Print and prepare the activity sheets for the level your child is ready for.

• Progress gradually from Level 1 (with colour prompts) to Level 3 (recall-based matching).

• Introduce the numbers first by reviewing learning targets with the child before starting each worksheet.

• Cut and match together for the first few rounds, then encourage independence by letting the child match without help.

• Use the blank templates to create your own practice.

Teaching tips

• Sing number songs and rhymes to make learning numbers fun and rhythmic, helping with memory and sequencing.

• Read number books together. Borrow simple number storybooks from the library. Identify different numbers and have the child trace the number on the book with their finger. 

• Play number-based games. E.g., “Find the Number” scavenger hunts or number bingo.

• Use tactile learning. Let your child trace numbers in sand, salt trays, or shaving cream to build number formation and fine motor skills.

Embed more learning opportunities

• Receptive language – “Point to number 7”.

• Expressive language – Point to one of the numbers on the worksheet, and ask the child, “What number is this?”. Ask the child “You cut out this picture. What number does it match to?”

• Writing – Cover the numbers and ask your child to write on paper or trace them in the air with their fingers. Encourage saying the number aloud while writing for stronger recall.

• Embed in your daily life. E.g., seeing the number somewhere, and asking the child “What number is this?”. Can be on the clock, out on the streets and more.
