On the Lines

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a learning tool that features two columns of ordinal numbers in numerical form, ranging from 1st to 100th. Students are directed to write the spelled-out word form of each ordinal number on the corresponding line next to it. The inclusion of a wide range of ordinal numbers, such as “33rd”, “73rd”, and “100th”, provides a comprehensive practice for understanding and writing ordinal words. An illustration of a cartoon character wearing a graduation cap adds a playful touch to the activity, potentially making the learning process more engaging for students.

The worksheet’s objective is to reinforce students’ knowledge of the correct spelling and sequence of ordinal numbers in their word form. By converting numbers from their numeral to word form, students enhance their number literacy and their understanding of ordinality, which denotes position or rank within a sequence. This task also helps to improve spelling and reinforces the concept of number order beyond the basic one through ten. Such exercises are crucial for students to accurately express quantities and positions in both written and spoken English.
