Number Names for Kids

In the era of autocorrect, most people do not care to learn the spelling of words. But do you think not learning alphabets and spelling can affect kids’ phonological development? Definitely not. When kids start learning, we teach them about numbers and the alphabet. Number names build strong mathematical  understanding in kids. In this article, kids will learn about the number names and their spellings.

What is a Number Name?

A number name is a concept of representing numbers in words. Writing numbers in word format is nothing more than writing numbers in words (alphabet). Numbers can be written in both figures and words. For example, 1 can be written as “one”, 2 as “two”, 3 as “three,” and so on. Whole numbers are composed of ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands. Keeping place values in mind makes writing numbers in word format easier.

Importance of knowing the Spelling of Numbers

Numbers are an essential key in mathematics. The spelling of numbers is also important to learn for children. It helps them to pronounce and write the numbers correctly. Spelling helps children in developing their reading and writing skills. To improve this, you can give work to them on preparing a number names worksheet. 

You can give the assignment to make your kid understand the concept of Number Names. The below image can help you with this.
