Writing the number 14
Write the 1 first, then the second digit beside it. Both digits sit on the line.
Say it out loud while the child writes. Starting the stroke in the right place is most of what makes a digit come out correctly, and it matters far more at this stage than how neat the result looks.
What 14 means
A full ten frame and four more.
Count 14 real objects before writing the digit. A number that has only ever been a shape on a page is not much use, and the gap between writing a numeral and understanding the quantity behind it is the most common weak point in early maths.
Where this fits
Work through all the numbers in order, use the ten frame setting to check understanding, then move to the math worksheet generator for addition. For letters on the same writing lines, see the alphabet tracing worksheets.
