Number Words Adventure
Numbers can talk too - but they use words instead of numbers!
Just like we have special names for numbers like "one" and "ten," bigger numbers have special word names
too. Let's learn how to write numbers from 1 to 1,000 in words. It's like giving each number its own
special name tag!
How to Write Numbers in Words
1️⃣ Hundreds first: Start with how many hundreds (like "two hundred")
2️⃣ Then the rest: Add the tens and ones (like "thirty-four")
3️⃣ Connect with "and": Sometimes we use "and" between hundreds and the rest (like "two hundred and thirty-four")
Let's Practice Together!
Example 1: Number Detective
What number is "seven hundred sixty-three"?

Parent Tips 🌟
- Play "Number Chef": Have your child "cook up" number words by combining ingredients (hundreds, tens, ones) to make number word recipes.
- Real-world practice: When you see numbers (prices, page numbers, addresses), ask your child to say them in words.
- Make it musical: Create a catchy song or chant for tricky number words (like "four hundred, four hundred, that's 4 with two zeros!").
