Numeral Songs
By SB

I use numeral songs with my first graders to help with numeral formation. I can't carry a tune in a tin bucket so I can't tell you the tune, but the words would help. Each group of formation words is said three times:
1--Start and the top and pull straight down (repeat 2 more times ), that's a number 1.
2--Curve around slant down and across,that's a number 2
3--Curve around and around again, that's a number 3
4--Down across and down again, that's a number 4
5--Across straight down and curve around that's a number 5
7--Pull across across and then slant down, that's a number 7
0--Start at the top and curve around, that's a number 0
