Valentine Number Order Clip Cards

I LOVE everything about Valentine’s Day – especially the yummy treats like COOKIES! These Valentine’s Day clip cards and printables are a motivating way to help students work on number order and the counting sequence for numbers 1-20.

Getting Ready

To prep the activity, I printed the clip cards on cardstock for durability, laminated them and then cut them out.

I also printed the worksheet that went along with the activity for my students to use if they finished working on the clip cards before the time was up in their math center.

The only other supply that I needed were clothespins for my students to use with the cards.

Valentine Clip Cards

I first played this game with my students in a small group to make sure that they knew exactly what to do.

Each student picked a clip card from the plate and took a look at the counting sequence.

In this example, the student practiced counted 5, 6, 7.

She found the number 6 below the cookies and then used a clothespin to clip the number and complete the counting sequence.

Students kept going until they had correctly clipped all of the cards.

When children finished they activity, I had them complete a number order printable. 

Students had to fill in the missing numbers up to 20 to complete the counting sequence.

(An additional version of the printable is also included where students have to write all numbers 1-20. It’s a fun way to also assess students on how well they are able to print their numbers!)
