Support your students as they develop confidence with counting to and from 20 using this hands-on worksheet set. The Number Line to 20 Cut & Paste Worksheets provide a visual and interactive way for students to practise the counting sequence and recognise number patterns within this essential range.

Each worksheet features a number line with missing numbers. Students cut out the provided number tiles and paste them into the correct spaces on the number line. This task reinforces number order, helps build fluency with the counting sequence, and supports early place value understanding in a way that is both engaging and accessible.

A range of difficulty levels has been included to allow for easy differentiation within your classroom. Some number lines feature only a few missing numbers, while others challenge students to complete most of the line independently. These worksheets are perfect for maths rotations, early finishers, small group support, or at-home reinforcement.
