5. count
6. twenty
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. The number that comes after 12 is 13.
When you count, 13 comes right after 12 because it is 1 more.
2. When you count, 17 comes before 18.
When you count, 18 comes right after 17 because it is 1 more.
3. The number 10 comes right after 9.
When you count, 10 comes right after 9. It is the first two-digit number.
4. Count forward: 14, 15, 16.
When you count in order, each number is 1 more than the one before it. The missing number is 16.
Part C: True or False?
Read each statement. Circle True or False.
1. The number 19 comes right after 18.
True False
True. When you count, 19 is the very next number after 18.
2. When counting to 20, the number 13 comes before 11.
True False
False. 13 is a bigger number than 11, so it comes after 11, not before.
3. The number 20 is the last number when you count to 20.
True False
True. When you count to 20, you stop at 20 because it is the last number.
