How to Use This Pack

Ten Christmas dot-to-dot pages that grow from 10 dots to 50: a star, an ornament, a stocking, a stack of presents, a candy cane (counting back from 20 to 1), a Christmas tree, a sack of toys, a gingerbread man, a gingerbread house and Santa. The first dot has a ring round it. Students join the dots in order with a pencil, then color the finished picture. The answer keys show each finished line in blue.

In the Classroom

Use the pages for counting practice at a center, for early finishers or before a holiday party. Start with fewer dots for children still learning their numbers, and say the numbers aloud together on the first page. On the candy cane, count back together first: 20, 19, 18 ...

At Home

Say each number aloud as your child finds it. If a number is hard to find, look at the numbers near the last dot: the next one is always close by.

Tips for Success

  • Find the ring: that is where to start
  • Say each number aloud as you draw to it
  • Draw straight lines with a pencil, then color with crayons
  • Lost? Look for the next number near the last dot

Common Core Standards Alignment

  • K.CC.A.1 Say the numbers in order up to 100, counting by 1s and also by 10s.
