Worksheet Description

This worksheet displays various rows of colorful objects, such as ladybugs, nuts, houses, ice cream cones, balloons, shoes, and wagons, each row increasing in quantity. The directions at the top instruct students to count the objects in each row and then write the corresponding cardinal number in word form on the provided lines. The activity combines counting with writing, using engaging images to capture students’ attention and make learning enjoyable.

The “Count and Spell Carnival” worksheet is intended to teach students to count objects and express quantities through written words. It reinforces numerical recognition and the concept of cardinality — that the last number name denotes the quantity of objects counted. By writing the number words, students practice their spelling and handwriting, which are key literacy skills. Additionally, this exercise can help children develop one-to-one correspondence, an important mathematical skill where they learn to match one object to one number word as they count.
