Numbers for different learning stages
This set gives young children a gentle start with Arabic-Indic digits such as ٠, ١, ٢ and ٣, then moves towards counting, matching and writing practice. Children aged 3 to 5 can trace large numerals, count pictures and connect groups to a number. Older children can practise number order, missing numbers and simple number words. Pair these pages with Arabic Alphabet Worksheets when your child is learning both letters and numbers.
Simple ways to use the worksheets
At home, begin with one short page and ask your child to say each numeral aloud before tracing it. Use small objects such as buttons, blocks or pencils for extra counting practice. In class, place different pages at learning stations, or let children work with a partner to check number matches. You can read the Arabic number names aloud, then let children colour the pictures after completing the maths task. Keep a few pages for revision rather than finishing the whole set in one sitting.
Helping with numeral direction and order
Children may confuse similar-looking Arabic-Indic digits or write them in the wrong direction, especially when they are also learning English numerals. Point to one numeral at a time and name it clearly. Show where the tracing line starts, then have your child copy it slowly in a tray of sand or with a finger in the air. For number order, place three cards on the table and ask which number comes before or after another. Correct gently by comparing the numeral with a matching group of objects.
Lumi's tips
- Make it easier by covering all but two or three numerals and using counters for each number.
- Make it harder by asking your child to fill in missing numbers or write the Arabic-Indic numeral after hearing its name.
- Keep it connected to daily life by counting fruit, steps or toys and finding the matching numeral on the worksheet.
