IB PYP Grade 1 Mathematics: Counting in Ones Worksheet

About This Worksheet

This IB PYP Grade 1 Mathematics worksheet gives learners focused practice with counting in ones. It's designed for counting one number at a time in the correct order, using simple, age-appropriate activities that build number confidence step by step rather than asking children to memorise facts by rote.

What Your Child Will Practise

• Count a set of objects one at a time without skipping
• Say the number sequence aloud in steps of one
• Match a counted total to the correct numeral
• Build one-to-one correspondence between objects and numbers

How to Use This Worksheet

1. Print the worksheet, or open it on a tablet if writing digitally.
2. Read the instructions together before your child begins.
3. Let your child attempt each question independently first.
4. Offer gentle guidance only where needed, and praise correct attempts.
5. Review the completed worksheet together and talk through any mistakes.

Tip: short, regular practice sessions of five to ten minutes work better for Grade 1 learners than one long session — revisit this worksheet a few times across the week.

Suitable for classroom use, homework, tutoring, or home learning, this worksheet fits naturally into any IB PYP Grade 1 Mathematics programme focused on number sense and early numeracy.
