Count and Match Worksheet – EYFS / KS1 Early Maths (Counting & Number Recognition)

This Count and Match worksheet supports early learners in practising accurate counting and recognising numbers up to 10. Children look closely at each group of classroom-themed objects and circle the correct number from the choices provided. This helps develop one-to-one correspondence, visual counting accuracy and early number identification.

The worksheet features six counting tasks using familiar items such as pencils, scissors, books, backpacks, erasers and glue bottles. Each set presents three possible answers beneath the images. For example, pupils count 7 pencils, 4 scissors, 3 books, 2 backpacks, 5 erasers and 9 glue bottles, then circle the correct numeral from the options offered. This simple format encourages independence while reinforcing counting fluency.
