What’s included?
This download includes x3 A4 landscape orientation sheets in a PDF format.

What’s it for?
This resource provides an engaging, hands-on learning experience for young learners to cut and match numerals and number names from one to ten and/or twenty. In this resource the numerals and number names are arranged in random order - making this more challenging than the other similar resource available, see: Posting letters! Number names to 10/20 - in order

This resource helps learners:

• Recognise numerals
• Recognise number name words
• Match numerals and number names to 10 and 20
• Improve fine motor skills (through cutting)

Who’s it for?
This resource is for Early Years and Year 1 children learning to read number names up to twenty. It’s also useful for Year 2 or older learners practising reading and spelling these words.

How to Use This Activity
First, learners write their name at the bottom of each sheet.

• Cut: Cut out the number name “postal letters” from Page 3 and keep them together (safe).
• Match: Look at the number name on each “postal letter” and read it to match it with the correct numeral on a house door.
• Stick: Once the matches are correct, glue the “postal letter” in the “garden” area under the numbered door. Learners can secure them with glue right away or wait until all matches are complete.

Differentiation

• For more advanced learners: Have them complete both Page 1 and Page 2, matching all number names up to twenty.
• For younger or less confident learners: Focus on Page 1, which only focuses on matching numbers up to ten.

Resource Details

• Page 1 displays houses numbered from 1 to 10 (in random order).
• Page 2 displays houses numbered from 1 to 20 (in random order).
• Page 3 displays the postal letters to be cut out (at the top) - in random order. At the base of this page are the answers - to be kept safe (and out of sight!) until learners have completed the activity.

Spare (blank) postal letters are included in case any do become lost.

Suggestion
To avoid losing the postal letters, provide a paper plate or shallow bowl for storage. For children who struggle with cutting, pre-cut the letters so they can focus on the number task.
