A numeral is a written number.

Zero means none.

Read it: Hear the word, write the numeral

Listen: six. The frame shows 6 counters, so we write 6.

  1. Listen to the number word: six.
  2. Count the counters: 6.
  3. Write the numeral: 6.

Each number word has its own numeral.

The counters show how many the word means, so you can count to check.

If you are not sure of the word, count: the count tells you the numeral.

Hear the word, count to check, write the numeral.

Writing 9 for six, because 6 turned over looks like 9.

Count the counters: 6. The 6 has its loop at the bottom.

Type the numeral for: eight. — 8. Eight is written 8.

Reading the numerals 3, 7, and 10

Numerals are the symbols we use to write numbers. Today we'll read the numerals from zero to ten.

Here they all are, in order, from zero up to ten.

Look at this one. This curvy numeral is three.

We say it out loud like this — three.

Three means three things. One, two, three!

Now look at this numeral. It's a seven.

We say it — seven.

Seven means seven things. Count with me — one, two, three, four, five, six, seven!

And this last numeral has two parts — a one and a zero. Together they spell ten.

We say it — ten.

Ten means ten things — a whole big group of ten!
