About this worksheet
6 "What number am I?" riddles for 1st grade: numbers up to 20 with a number line, even and odd, tens and ones and counting by 5s. Every riddle has exactly one answer. Answer key on page 2. First graders can read it on their own and ask for help only with the trickier words. Count rods by tens first, then add the ones.
Tips for using it
- Read the riddle twice: the first time for fun, the second time to look for the trick word.
- Ask "what else could that word mean?" when a riddle seems impossible.
- Let your child be the riddle master and read riddles to you; reading aloud to an audience builds fluency.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). Page 1 is the worksheet and page 2 is the answer key with the answers in red; print just page 1 if you want to keep the answers for checking. The PNG shows page 1 only. Free for personal, family and classroom use.
