Numbers To 10

In this article, we will learn numbers from \(0\) to \(10\). At the end of the article, you should be able to identify these numbers, and read and write them. We will also count and compare these numbers. 

The learning objectives will be as follows: 

  1. Reading and writing in numerals and words
  2. Comparing the number of items in the sets

1. Reading and writing in numerals and words

Numbers are very important. You use them to count the number of candies or the number of pencils you have. Our birthdays fall on a date, which is a number too! The clock shows the time of the day with numbers. Can you think of more examples? 

We are going to learn both – numerals and words of numbers.

  • \(0\) means nothing. \(0\) is the numeral form and in word form, it is spelt as Z E R O.
  • Cute Chick 1 How many chicks do you see?

There is one chick. Its numeral form is \(1\) and in word form, it is O N E.

  • Cute Chick 2Cute Chick 3 Count the number of chicks here.

There are two chicks. The numeral form is \(2\) and in word form, it is T W O.

  • Cute Chick 4Cute Chick 5Cute Chick 6 How many do you see now? 

There are three chicks. The numeral form is \(3\) and in word form, it is T H R E E.

  • Cute Chick 7Cute Chick 7Cute Chick 9Cute Chick 10 Can you count these?

There are four chicks. The numeral form is \(4\) and in word form, it is F O U R.

  • Cute Chick 11Cute Chick 12Cute Chick 1314Cute Chick 15  How many do you see now? 

There are five chicks. The numeral form is \(5\) and in word form, it is F I V E.

Do remember to learn both the numerals and their spellings. Look at the table below to revise the numbers we have just learned!

2. Comparing the number of items in the sets

Let’s learn how to compare numbers. We compare them by matching.

Example 1:

Match each saucer to a teacup. 


 

We see that each tea cup is matched to a saucer. There is no extra tea cup or saucer left. This means that they are of the same number. 

 

Example 2:

Match each spoon to a plate.

The last two plates do not have a spoon.      

The number of spoons is fewer than the number of plates, as 3 is smaller than 5.
