Cut and Paste to 20

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a hands-on math activity where students are instructed to cut and paste numbers into their correct positions in a sequence. The main section of the worksheet displays a grid with some numbers missing in the sequence from 1 to 20. Below the grid, there is a set of numbers provided in a scrambled order within a dotted line area, suggesting that these are to be cut out. The task for the students is to place these numbers into their appropriate spots in the numerical sequence above.

The educational aim of this worksheet is to reinforce students’ understanding of numerical order by having them actively arrange numbers from 1 to 20. It combines cognitive skills with fine motor skills as students must cut out and paste the numbers, which also adds a tactile element to the learning process. This exercise helps to solidify the concept of number sequences in a more interactive way than simply writing or reciting numbers. Additionally, the “How Did You Do?” section at the bottom provides an opportunity for self-reflection, allowing students to assess their own confidence and accuracy in completing the task.
