10 Free Counting Worksheets for Kindergarten
10 Free Counting Worksheets for Kindergarten
A Post By: Anthony Persico
Are Your Kindergarten Students Ready for These Fun and Engaging Counting Worksheets (with answer keys)?
One of the most fundamental and important math skills is basic counting. This key skill is first introduced at the pre-school and kindergarten levels and forms as the foundation of all math topics that follow (counting beyond single digits, grouping, addition, subtraction, working with money, etc.).
While there are tons of free kindergarten math worksheets available online, they are not all created the same. Many free worksheets are simply bland and uninteresting, leaving much to be desired and often leading children to start their mathematics journey off on the wrong foot. After all, we never want our students to see mathematics as a dull or boring subject (when it is, in fact, quite the opposite).
However, if you are looking for free counting worksheets for kindergarten students that are actually fun and engaging, then you’re in the right place. In today’s post, you will find 10 Free Counting Worksheets that can be download as pdf files, which are easy to print or share digitally.
These colorful worksheets give students an opportunity to practice and apply their counting skills in the context of “find the fib” or “two truths and one lie,” where students are given three counting examples or diagrams (two of which are true and one of which is false) and must figure out which choice is a fib. Why are these kinds of worksheets so effective for helping students to improve their counting skills? Because they require students to think deeply and actually apply their concepts of numbers and counting in a way that allows them to think critically and mathematically (and have fun at the same time).
Ready to see the results for yourself? Go ahead and download and share a few of our free counting worksheets with your kindergartners and see how they react.
