These race car numbers can be used in a variety of ways. They can be used as a wall display (or other display), they can be an arranging task, they can be used as an activity for ‘driving’ a toy car around the shape correctly or can be traced.
The boys particularly liked these when introducing numbers to the class.
The clip art images can be inserted into any worksheet of your own creation too.
I have created these because the ones I’ve found have the incorrect formation for 4, 5 and 9.
I have used these digits (without the lines) for these resources too;

In this set there are seven vocabulary flashcards related to the story. Also, there are four activities related to the reading comprehension skill. They are circling the picture, circling the word, coloring and matching the similar picture.
