About this worksheet

Six teen numbers to build by coloring two ten frames.

What kids practice

Every teen number is one full ten and some more ones. 14 is 10 and 4. This is the first step toward place value, where the 1 in 14 stands for a whole group of ten.

Watch for

  • Writing the digits backwards, like 41 for fourteen. Fourteen says the 4 first, so this is very common.
  • Filling both ten frames partly instead of filling the first one all the way.
  • Thinking the 1 in a teen number means just one.

It's free to print, with an answer key. See the full teen numbers guide for kindergarten.
