Candy Corn Jars Number Order Printable
Playing this number order game is fairly straight forward. Choose the number strips you would like your students to work on, choose these carefully not to overload your students with a large number of cards. Students begin by identifying the numbers on each strip then write the number that comes next or before. They can also have a number line in front of them to help them figure out the next number.

Another way you could use these cards is to play a scavenger hunt game and tape all the strips around the room. Then, have the kids looking for the strips around the room, and completing each strip and placing them in a container. You could also add an element of mystery and surprise by telling a short story to have the kids ‘solve the puzzle’ and finish all the cards before a timer runs out. It’s a great way to encourage team building and playful activities within your classroom environment.
