About this worksheet
A free printable number 16 tracing worksheet: trace a big dashed 16 with numbered start dots and arrows that show the stroke order, then trace rows of 16s on primary lines that fade from dark dashes to dots to start dots only, count and color 16 balloons and trace the word "sixteen". It suits ages 4 to 6, and little ones can count the pictures with a finger. Count the pictures twice: once by pointing, once by coloring a dot on each one.
On this sheet
each row, count and color the pictures, and trace the word sixteen. Count and color 16 balloons. Trace the 16s, then write your own.
Tips for using it
- Say the number out loud each time you trace it.
- Use real objects like coins or pasta to build the number before writing it.
- Say the strokes out loud while tracing, like "across and down" for 7 or "down, across, down" for 4.
- Always start at the green dot; starting in the right place stops numbers from coming out backwards.
