Teen Numbers Exit Slip

About this worksheet

A four-question exit slip on teen numbers for kindergarten, written against the Common Core counting standards K.CC.3, K.CC.4, and K.CC.5. Question 1 shows a full ten-frame plus a partial one and asks for the total of 14. Question 2 is a number path from 11 to 16 with 13 and 15 missing. Question 3 counts a picture of exactly 15 buttons arranged in three rows of five. The last question is multiple choice: 10 and 7 more is 15, 17, or 19. Short enough to finish in minutes, with a key for all four answers.

Curriculum objectives covered

K.CC.3

Write numbers from 0 to 20. Represent a number of objects with a written numeral 0-20 (with 0 representing a count of no objects).

Three of the four questions end in a written numeral: 14 for the frames, 13 and 15 on the path, and 15 for the buttons.

K.CC.4

Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality.

The button count asks for one number that names all 15 objects, and question 4 connects the quantity ten-and-seven to the numeral 17.

K.CC.5

Count to answer "how many?" questions about as many as 20 things arranged in a line, a rectangular array, or a circle, or as many as 10 things in a scattered configuration; given a number from 1-20, count out that many objects.

The 15 buttons sit in a three-by-five array, the exact rectangular arrangement the standard names, and the ten-frames extend counting past 10.

What's inside this worksheet

Question 1: Ten frames

Two dot arrangements are labeled 10 Frame and More Dots. Students count 10 plus 4 extra dots and write the total, 14, in the box.

Question 2: Number path

The path reads 11, 12, __, 14, __, 16. Students write the missing 13 and 15.

Question 3: Count the buttons

A picture shows 15 round toy buttons in three rows of five. Students count and write how many in all.

Question 4: Tens and ones

A callout reads "10 and 7 more is..." and students mark one of three checkboxes: 15, 17, or 19.

How teachers use it

Last five minutes

Hand it out as students pack up. Four questions is deliberate: quick enough to collect from everyone, long enough to sort the room into tomorrow's groups.

Sorting responses

Question 4 separates two error types. A student who marks 15 heard "5 more"; one who marks 19 is counting on wrong. Both need different follow-up than a counting slip on question 3.

Progress-monitoring file

Repeat the slip after a week of teen-number work. The identical format, down to the 11 to 16 path, makes before-and-after comparison honest.
