Step-by-step solution for: Numbers fun (1-12) - Interactive worksheet | Preschool worksheets ...
This image is a fun and educational activity designed to help children match numbers with their corresponding number words. Let's break it down and solve the problem step by step.
---
There are six pairs of cards at the top, each showing:
- A large number (e.g., 3, 8, 2, etc.)
- A list of number words (e.g., THREE, FOUR, FIVE, etc.)
The goal is to match the number on the left with its correct word form from the list on the right.
Additionally, at the bottom:
- There’s a circular word puzzle with jumbled number words.
- Numbers 1 through 12 are placed around the circle.
- The task seems to be to identify which number word corresponds to each number, possibly using the clues in the upper section.
---
Let’s go through each pair:
#### 1. Number: 3
- Options: THREE, FOUR, FIVE, TWO, EIGHT
- Correct answer: THREE
✔ Match: 3 → THREE
---
#### 2. Number: 8
- Options: SEVEN, TEN, NINE, ELEVEN, EIGHT
- Correct answer: EIGHT
✔ Match: 8 → EIGHT
---
#### 3. Number: 2
- Options: THREE, FOUR, FIVE, TWO, ONE
- Correct answer: TWO
✔ Match: 2 → TWO
---
#### 4. Number: 11
- Options: TWELVE, TEN, TWO, EIGHT, ELEVEN
- Correct answer: ELEVEN
✔ Match: 11 → ELEVEN
---
#### 5. Number: 4
- Options: THREE, FOUR, FIVE, TWO, SIX
- Correct answer: FOUR
✔ Match: 4 → FOUR
---
#### 6. Number: 6
- Options: SEVEN, NINE, FIVE, SIX, EIGHT
- Correct answer: SIX
✔ Match: 6 → SIX
---
It shows a circle with number words written in a jumbled order:
> "fivethreeeighttwelvemnineteenfouroneeleven"
But this is actually a continuous string of number words, likely meant to be read in order around the circle.
Let’s extract the words from the circle in order:
Looking at the sequence:
- Starting from “five” → then “three” → “eight” → “twelve” → “ten” → “nine” → “two” → “one” → “eleven” → “four” → “six”
Wait — that doesn’t seem right. Let’s carefully trace the circle.
Actually, the text is arranged in a circular path, and numbers 1–12 are placed around the edge.
We can assume the number words are listed in order from 1 to 12, but scrambled in the circle.
Let’s try to decode the circle.
The visible words in the circle are:
> fivethreeeighttwelvemnineteenfouroneeleven
Let’s split into actual number words:
- five
- three
- eight
- twelve
- ten
- nine
- two
- one
- eleven
- four
- six
Wait — we’re missing seven? But there are 12 positions.
Let’s count how many words we have:
1. five
2. three
3. eight
4. twelve
5. ten
6. nine
7. two
8. one
9. eleven
10. four
11. six
That’s 11 words. We're missing seven.
But notice: the word "m" appears after "twelve" — probably a typo or misprint. It might be "seven" instead of "m"? Or maybe it's "seven" written as "sev"? Not clear.
Wait — perhaps it's "seven" but misspelled as "m"? That seems unlikely.
Alternatively, maybe the string is:
> fivethreeeighttwelvemnineteenfouroneeleven
Let’s try to parse it more accurately:
- five → 5
- three → 3
- eight → 8
- twelve → 12
- m → ???
- nine → 9
- ten → 10
- four → 4
- one → 1
- eleven → 11
- six → 6
Hmm — still not matching.
Wait — perhaps the "m" is a typo for "seven"? But that doesn't fit.
Alternatively, maybe the word is "seven" but written as "sev"? No.
Wait — let's look at the numbers around the circle: 1 to 12 are labeled around the outside.
And the words are inside the circle, forming a loop.
So likely, the correct number word should be matched to the number at each position.
For example:
- At position 1, the word should be ONE
- At 2, TWO
- ...
- At 12, TWELVE
But the words are mixed up in the circle.
So the task is likely: use the matching you did above to identify which number word goes where.
But here’s a better idea: the bottom oval has a large blank bubble, and a small bug pointing to it. This suggests that the child should write the missing number word.
But what’s missing?
Wait — let’s re-express the circle:
The string says:
"fivethreeeighttwelvemnineteenfouroneeleven"
Let’s try splitting it properly:
- five → 5
- three → 3
- eight → 8
- twelve → 12
- m → ?
- nine → 9
- ten → 10
- four → 4
- one → 1
- eleven → 11
- six → 6
Still missing seven and two?
Wait — “two” is missing.
List of all number words from 1 to 12:
1. one
2. two
3. three
4. four
5. five
6. six
7. seven
8. eight
9. nine
10. ten
11. eleven
12. twelve
Now, check which ones appear in the string:
- one ✔
- two ✘
- three ✔
- four ✔
- five ✔
- six ✔
- seven ✘
- eight ✔
- nine ✔
- ten ✔
- eleven ✔
- twelve ✔
So missing: two and seven
But the string has "m" — maybe that’s a typo for "seven"?
Alternatively, perhaps "m" is part of "seven"? Unlikely.
Wait — could it be "seven" was meant to be written, but only "m" appears? That seems like an error.
Alternatively, maybe the word "seven" is hidden.
But looking closely: the string is:
> fivethreeeighttwelvemnineteenfouroneeleven
Let’s try breaking it again:
- five → 5
- three → 3
- eight → 8
- twelve → 12
- m → ??
- nine → 9
- ten → 10
- four → 4
- one → 1
- eleven → 11
- six → 6
Wait — six comes last, but it's not in the original string? Let's check:
After "eleven", it ends with "six"? But the string says "eleven" and then no more.
Wait — the full string is:
> fivethreeeighttwelvemnineteenfouroneeleven
Let’s write it with spaces:
- f i v e t h r e e e i g h t t w e l v e m n i n e t e n f o u r o n e e l e v e n
No — that doesn’t work.
Wait — maybe it's:
> five
> three
> eight
> twelve
> m
> nine
> ten
> four
> one
> eleven
Still missing two, six, seven
But earlier we had six in the list — maybe it’s missing?
Wait — in the sixth card, we matched 6 → SIX
But in the circle, is six present?
Look at the end: "...oneeleven" — so no six.
But six is not in the string.
So the words present are:
- five
- three
- eight
- twelve
- m (???)
- nine
- ten
- four
- one
- eleven
So missing: two, six, seven
But we only have one blank bubble.
So likely, the missing word is the one that should go in the blank.
But which one?
Wait — perhaps the "m" is a typo for "seven"?
Maybe the intended string was:
> five three eight twelve seven nine ten four one eleven six two
But it's written as: "fivethreeeighttwelvemnineteenfouroneeleven"
Ah! Wait — "m" might be "seven" written incorrectly?
Or perhaps "seven" is supposed to be there, but the "s" is missing?
Alternatively, maybe "m" is "two"? No.
Wait — perhaps the "m" is actually "seven" — but it's drawn poorly?
Unlikely.
Another possibility: the word "seven" is missing entirely, and the "m" is a typo.
But let’s think differently.
Perhaps the task is to fill in the blank based on the matching exercise.
We already matched:
- 3 → THREE
- 8 → EIGHT
- 2 → TWO
- 11 → ELEVEN
- 4 → FOUR
- 6 → SIX
So now, at the bottom, the bug is pointing to a blank bubble, and the circle has number words.
But the number 7 is labeled near the blank.
Look at the bottom:
- The numbers 1 to 12 are around the circle.
- The blank bubble is near number 7.
So likely, the task is to write the word for 7 in the blank.
Because the other numbers have their words already in the circle.
But wait — seven is not in the string.
So the missing word is "SEVEN", and it should go in the blank.
Moreover, the "m" might be a typo or a placeholder.
So the solution is:
👉 Write "SEVEN" in the blank bubble.
---
The missing number word is SEVEN, corresponding to the number 7.
So, the child should write "SEVEN" in the blank oval.
---
1. Match each number to its word:
- 3 → THREE
- 8 → EIGHT
- 2 → TWO
- 11 → ELEVEN
- 4 → FOUR
- 6 → SIX
2. In the bottom circle, numbers 1–12 are labeled around the edge.
3. The blank bubble is near number 7, and the word "seven" is missing from the circular word list.
4. Therefore, the correct answer is to write "SEVEN" in the blank.
