Number Writing 0-20 — Answer Key
Part A: Trace the Words
Trace each word carefully by following the dotted lines.
1. 6
2. 9
3. 13
4. even
5. odd
6. 5
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. The number after 7 is 8.
Adding one to seven gives eight, which is the next counting number after seven.
2. The number after 14 is 15.
After fourteen we say fifteen because fifteen is one more than fourteen in order.
3. An even number after 4 is 6.
Even numbers go two, four, six, eight, so six comes right after four when counting evens.
4. An odd number after 3 is 5.
Odd numbers are one, three, five, seven, so five comes right after three in odd order.
Part C: True or False?
Read each statement. Circle True or False.
1. The number after 9 is 10.
True False
Ten is one more than nine, so ten always comes right after nine when we count up.
2. The number 4 is an odd number.
True False
Four is an even number because you can split four into two equal groups of two each.
3. Counting backwards from 5 we say 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
True False
Going backwards we say five, four, three, two, one because each number is one less.
