Counting Objects to 20 Worksheets
Groups of five to twenty shapes in rows of five, so two full rows make ten and the count continues from there. This is where counting turns into grouping, and the layout nudges that without saying so. Five shape types rotate through the page; the hard setting in the panel pushes the groups to thirty.

FAQ
How do the rows help with numbers past 10?
Two full rows are ten; a child who sees that counts on from ten instead of from one, which is the whole idea of place value in miniature.
Do the downloads include answer keys?
Yes, every PDF ends with a key page that repeats the layout with the answers in green. Turn the Answer key switch off for a problems-only file.
Can I get different versions for each student?
Turn on the 5 versions switch before downloading. You get five different sheets in one PDF, each with its own answer key, so neighbouring desks cannot copy.
What is the hard setting?
Groups of 10 to 30 in rows of six. Use it once counting to 20 is automatic.
Can kids do these on a tablet?
Yes. Practice online puts a pen tool over the same sheet, so answers (or clock hands) can be drawn with a finger or stylus and wiped for another try.
