About this worksheet
Teen numbers are the bridge between counting individual objects and understanding place value. Each number from 11 through 19 is one complete group of ten plus some extra ones. The spoken names can hide that structure: eleven and twelve do not sound like ten-one and ten-two, while thirteen through nineteen say the ones part first. Children may reverse the written digits or treat both digits as separate counts. This worksheet makes the hidden ten visible with full frames and base-ten blocks. Questions ask for the whole teen number, the number of extra ones, and the matching ten-and-ones description. Support versions emphasize smaller teen numbers with fewer loose ones. Standard and challenge versions broaden the range and vary which part must be found. Ask your child to point to the full ten before counting the extras. Saying one ten and six ones is sixteen builds a dependable place-value sentence.

Worked example

Common mistake
Writing the ones digit first because the spoken word names that part before ten.

Name the full group of ten first, then count the extra ones.
