About this worksheet
“Find the Number” is sheet 24 of 30 in our free Pre-K Math Worksheets collection, written for children aged 3–5. It focuses on number recognition.
In the set it comes after “One More” and before “Shapes All Around Me”. Working through them in that order, one sheet a day, builds the skill a step at a time.
How to use this worksheet
- 1
Let your child point at and touch each object as they count it out loud. One-to-one correspondence — one word per object — is the skill being built, and pointing is what makes it visible to you.
- 2
Do one sheet at a time. A Pre-K attention span is roughly five to ten minutes, and stopping while it is still going well is what makes them willing to come back.
- 3
Do not correct a reversed numeral yet. Reversed 3s and 5s are normal until about age seven and disappear on their own with practice.
- 4
If tracing is frustrating, open the same sheet in the online studio instead. A finger on a tablet needs far less fine motor control than a pencil, and the counting practice still happens.
