About preschool math

Preschool math is about noticing how many, what shape, and what comes next. Three to five year olds learn the numbers 1 to 10, count small groups of real things, name shapes and colors, sort and match, spot simple patterns and use words like big, small, in and under.

These pre-K math worksheets follow that path. Each number from 1 to 10 has its own page set with a big number to trace, pictures to count and color, a dot marker page and a playdough mat. Counting pages go from 1 to 5, then to 10. Shapes, colors, patterns, sorting, matching, size and position words each have their own pages.

Every page has one job and one short direction for the grown-up, with big, plain pictures that a child who cannot read yet understands. Sheets print in black and white on US Letter or A4, and pages with right answers have an answer key on page 2.

Questions

What math should a preschooler learn?

Counting to 10 and beyond, counting small groups of objects, recognizing the numbers 1 to 10, naming basic shapes, sorting, simple patterns and comparing sizes. Most of it is learned through play, with worksheets as a quiet extra.

Where should we start?

Start with counting real things and the number pages for 1 to 5. Add shapes, colors and sorting alongside, and move on to 6 to 10 when counting to 5 is easy.

How long should a preschool math worksheet take?

Five to ten minutes. Each page has one job, so stop while your child is still enjoying it and come back another day.

Do the worksheets need color printing?

No. Every page is black and white, and many are made for your child to color in.
