  3. Write the missing ones in the empty boxes.
  4. Read the whole row aloud to check it.

Tip for parents and teachers: Saying the sequence aloud helps children hear a mistake. A number line on the table is a good helper for the first few sheets. Touching each object once (one-to-one counting) is the key skill. Real objects like buttons or spoons make great extra practice.
