How to write 19
Nineteen is a 1 and a 9. The 9 is a ball and a line, drawn counter-clockwise like the letter a, then straight down.
Number facts for nineteen
One more than nineteen is 20, and one less is 18. 19 is odd, so 19 socks make 9 pairs with one left over. You can make nineteen as 18 + 1, 17 + 2, 16 + 3 or 15 + 4. It is one ten and 9 ones: a full ten-frame and 9 more. Count on from 19: 20, 21, 22. Count back: 18, 17, 16.
Nineteen in real life
Nineteen is one less than twenty. Count to twenty with stickers, take one away, and count what is left. Then count backwards from nineteen to ten.

A solid 19 with a numbered arrow comes first, then dotted copies, the word "nineteen" and an empty row to write alone. When it feels easy, try 20.
