Counting Activity
Ask your child to count 28 objects on the worksheet, say the number word "twenty-eight" aloud, then trace the number before writing it independently on the practice lines.
Understanding 28: Two Tens and Eight Ones
The number 28 is made from two tens and eight ones. Build two full groups of ten and place eight more objects beside them so the written 2 and 8 can be connected with their quantities.
Count on eight times after 20 to reach 28. Number 28 comes after 27, before 29 and is only two objects away from making a third complete group of ten.
Make Four Groups of Seven
Use 28 counters, blocks or crayons and organise them into four equal collections.
- Count seven objects into one group.
- Repeat until there are four groups of seven.
- Count every object to confirm that the total is 28.
- Join two groups together and count the combined group of 14.
- Join all four groups again and check that none were lost or added.
Rearrange the objects as two rows of ten with eight extras. Comparing the two patterns helps children understand that the same number can be grouped in different ways.
How to Write Number 28 Clearly
Begin with 2, using a curved top and a base along the writing line. Form 8 as two joined rounded loops, with one loop above the other.
Keep both loops in the 8 closed and joined at the middle. Avoid drawing two separate circles, and place the 8 after the 2 so the number cannot be mistaken for 82.
