Poems to Help Writing Numbers
1
Straight down and then you’re done.
That’s the way to make a one!
2
Around and back on the railroad track.
Two! Two! Two!
3
Around the tree, around the tree.
That’s the way to make a three!
4
Down and over and down some more.
That’s the way to make a four!
5
Put on a hat. Then take a dive.
Make a big round tummy.
Now that’s a five!
6
Make a loop and then a hoop!
Six!
7
Across the sky and down from heaven.
That’s the way to make a seven!
8
Make an ‘S’ but do not wait.
Go back up and close the gate.
9
Make a hoop and then a line.
That’s the way to make a nine!
10
Straight down
and then you’re done.
That’s the way to make a one!
Around, around, around you go.
That’s the way to make zero!
