Kindergarten Counting Worksheets — Free Printable PDF
Free kindergarten counting worksheets — count to 20, count and write, skip counting by 2s, 5s and 10s. Common Core aligned. Instant PDF download.
By kindergarten, counting moves from 'point and say' to 'point and write.' This is the year a child learns that the spoken word 'seven' and the symbol '7' are the same idea, and that's a bigger conceptual leap than it looks. Worksheets help by making the connection visible — count the objects, then write the numeral next to them.
Our kindergarten counting sheets cover everything in the standard Common Core K curriculum: counting to 20 with one-to-one correspondence, writing numerals 0–20, comparing groups (more, less, equal), and the first taste of skip counting by 2s, 5s and 10s. The harder sheets bridge into early addition, where two groups are counted and combined.
These pair well with our Counting Stars and Math Addition games. Most kindergarten teachers we hear from print our sheets in batches and use them as morning warm-ups. Free to copy, free to print, no signup.
