We have been working on number vocabulary with my ESL class. I found myself in a need for some engaging resources. As a result I decided to create my own set of printable activities, focusing on this skill. You will find some FREE printables and some paid resources throughout this post that will make it easy to teach numbers in your classroom. I believe that one of the keys to teaching numbers is picture support. Therefore, I made number posters for each number up to ten, that I can use to teach numbers to my students.

This number posters set helps students connect numbers 1-10 with ten frames, tally marks, words, objects (pencils), fingers and dices. After introducing and learning the number words, we need lots of practice. Practice doesn't have to be boring though. One of my favorite ways to
