Worksheet: Special Number – Fourteen

#### 1. Trace and write
- The number 14 is given in bold.
- You are to trace the number "14" and then write it again on the dotted lines.
- Below that, trace and write the word "fourteen".

✔ Answer:
Trace: 14
Write: 14
Trace: fourteen
Write: fourteen

---

#### 2. Odd or Even?
You are asked to circle whether 14 is odd or even.

- Even numbers are divisible by 2 (end in 0, 2, 4, 6, 8).
- 14 ends in 4 → it’s even.

✔ Answer: Circle even

---

#### 3. Tens and Ones
Break down 14 into tens and ones.

- 14 = 1 ten + 4 ones

✔ Answer:
- 1 tens
- 4 ones

---

#### 4. Show 14 on the ten frames
There are two ten frames (each can hold 10 blocks). You need to show 14.

- First ten frame: Fill all 10 boxes (full)
- Second ten frame: Fill 4 boxes

✔ Answer:
- First row: All 10 squares filled
- Second row: 4 squares filled

---

#### 5. Which set of blocks shows 14? (Circle one)
Two sets of base-ten blocks are shown:

- Set A: One long rod (10) + 4 small cubes (4) → 10 + 4 = 14 ✔
- Set B: Two rods (20) + 0 cubes → 20 ✘

✔ Answer: Circle Set A (one rod and four cubes)

---

#### 6. Fill in the empty boxes on the number line
The number line shows:
```
[ ] → [ ] → 14 → [ ] → 16 → [ ]
```

We know:
- Numbers increase by 1.
- So before 14: 13, 12
- After 14: 15, 17

So fill in:
- Left of 14: 13, 12
- Right of 14: 15, 17

✔ Answer:
→ 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17

#### 7. Show 14 with tally marks
Tally marks: Each group of 5 is a "cross" over four vertical lines.

- 14 = 2 groups of 5 (10) + 4 more
- So: |||| |||| |||| |||| → but we use the standard grouping

✔ Answer:
Draw:
`||||` `||||` `||||` `||`
(That’s three groups of 5 and one group of 4 → 15? Wait — no!)

Wait! 14 = 2 full groups of 5 (10), plus 4 more.

So:
`||||` `||||` `||||` `|||` → No, that’s 13.

Correct:
`||||` `||||` `||||` `|||` → Still not right.

Actually:
Each group of 5 is: `||||\` (four lines, one diagonal across).

So:
- 10 = two groups: `||||\` `||||\`
- 4 more = `||||` (no diagonal)

But since we only have 14, we do:
- `||||\` `||||\` `||||` → That’s 5 + 5 + 4 = 14 ✔

✔ Answer: Draw:
```
||||\ ||||\ ||||
```
(Or if you're writing: five, five, and four separate marks)

✔ Final Answers Summary:

1. Trace and write: 14, fourteen
2. Odd/Even: Circle even
3. Tens and ones: 1 ten, 4 ones
4. Ten frames: First full (10), second has 4 filled
5. Blocks: Circle the set with 1 rod and 4 cubes
6. Number line: 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17
7. Tally marks: `||||\` `||||\` `||||` (or similar representation for 14)
