Quick Answer:
Meet the Numbers is a two-page-per-number resource designed to build true number sense through visual, hands-on, and movement-based learning. Each number is introduced in a consistent, developmentally appropriate way so students understand both how the number is written and what the number represents before moving on to practice.

What’s Inside

This resource includes numbers 0–10, with two full pages for each number:

Page 1: Number & Quantity Visuals

Each number page includes:

• The written numeral

• A tracing model showing how the number is formed

• Fingers representing the quantity

• A jar filled with that many items

• A dice or domino

• Tally marks

• A ten frame

These visuals help students connect numbers to quantity and build strong number recognition.

Page 2: Number Introduction & Meaning

Each number also includes an introduction page with:

• The number title

• How We Write It (clear, consistent number formation language)

• Count It On Your Body

• Number Move (simple, engaging movement)

• See It In The World (one real-world object that uniquely represents the number)

This page is designed for explicit teaching and whole-group or small-group instruction.

How to Use

• Use the introduction page to explicitly teach each number.

• Model the language, movements, and visuals as students follow along.

• Display the visual page as a reference, math center support, or table visual.

• Pair both pages together or rotate them based on your lesson focus.

Why It Works

• Builds strong number sense, not just counting

• Uses multiple representations of each number

• Supports consistent number formation

• Connects numbers to real-world meaning

• Includes movement, visuals, and concrete examples

• Perfect for preschool and early kindergarten learners

Meet the Numbers is an intentional, low-prep way to introduce numbers before worksheets—helping students build a strong foundation that supports all future math learning.
