Number Words to Numerals Worksheet

Six-year-olds often know a number when they hear it, then stall when they see the word written out. This worksheet keeps the work small and clear. Children read the number words two, nine, six, four, and seventeen, then write the matching numerals in the large boxes.

This is a good fit when a child can count familiar numbers but needs more practice connecting number names to numerals. It is not a full one to twenty chart. It focuses on a selected set, 2, 9, 6, 4, and 17, so the page feels doable and gives you a quick look at which words are automatic and which still need support.

Sit nearby and have your child point to one word at a time. If they get stuck, say the word together, count up to that number if helpful, and then ask, “What numeral shows that number?” The practice builds number word recognition and numeral writing without adding extra directions or busy pictures.

After this page, you can keep the same skill moving in a simple way. Try the next whole number worksheet when your child is ready to think about what comes after a numeral. For more number order practice with gaps to fill, the find the missing numbers worksheet gives a related next step.
