About this worksheet

Boxes of pictures with three number choices. Kids count and circle the right number.

What kids practice

Counting objects means saying one number for each thing and knowing that the last number tells how many. Kindergartners count groups in rows and in scattered piles, and count out a set number of things.

Watch for

  • Saying numbers faster or slower than touching, so the count is off.
  • Counting the same picture twice or skipping one in a scattered group.
  • Counting again when asked "how many?" instead of using the last number.

It's free to print, with Fewer, Standard or More on the page and an answer key. See the full counting objects guide for kindergarten.
