Build the Number: Numeral-to-Quantity Counting Activity

This 7-page printable guides children to choose a numeral, build a matching group with blocks or counters, and count the objects to check their work. Children practise numeral recognition, one-to-one counting, and matching a written number to a quantity. Use it for a hands-on math center, small-group practice, or an independent activity with familiar manipulatives. The flexible directions let an adult choose a number the child is learning or let the child select one.
