Counting in 10's to 100 Cut/stick activity

What’s included?

This pdf download includes x3 pages designed in landscape orientation featuring ten pairs of hands (each showing x10 fingers!) to practise counting in 10’s up to 100. This resource has been designed in black and white for easy, clear printing.

What's it for?

This resource includes x3 pages, each featuring ten pairs of hands (each showing x10 fingers!) to practise counting up to 100 in 10’s. This is a cut and stick activity. A 'writing numbers' version is also available if your learner does not like cutting/sticking! Learners can be given more or less support with this cut/stick activity depending on which sheet they are given. The last page (3) includes the answers - set out in the same design for quick easy reference. Learners could be given this to refer to once they have completed this activity, promoting autonomy.

Who’s it for?

This resource has been designed for pupils in Y1 and Y2 as well as older pupils needing additional support with their learning. This resource may be suitable for some pupils in Reception.

This has been designed as a ‘cut and stick’ activity for learners who may find ‘writing’ numbers challenging or those who love to cut and stick! The numbers to cut out are positioned at the base of the sheets - these could be pre-cut by an adult to speed up the activity or to support learners who find cutting challenging/de-motivating. Cutting ‘dots’ are included to guide learners where to cut ‘out’ (rather than cut ‘up’ !) the numbers!

Resource layout

Page 1

The first page has x10 boxes of ten sets of fingers with a large blank box under each image where the learner can cut and stick the correct 10’s number. The numbers ’30’ and ‘100’ have already been typed in the boxes, leaving x8 number gaps for the learner to complete. With two completed numbers to help this is the least challenging sheet in this set.

Page 2

This page has x10 boxes of ten sets of fingers with a large blank box under each image where learners are to stick the correct 10’s number. This blank version can be printed and the adult can write some more of the 10’s numbers in, leaving some gaps for the learner to complete the boxes. If given to a learner as it is (without any numbers written on) this page (page 2) is the more challenging sheet in this set, particularly as the numbers to ‘cut out’ (at the base of the sheet) are intentionally ‘mixed up’.

Page 3

The last, page 3 is the answers page - ALL numbers completed - making the answers clear to learners. This makes page 3 a helpful reference sheet which learners could use to check their answers themselves - encouraging autonomy. Page 3 could be used as a reference resource for display.

There is a space on each sheet for learners to record the number date (top, right) and write their name.
