About This Worksheet
8 is often the hardest single number to write, because it is one continuous stroke that crosses itself to make two loops. Page 1 gives a full page of 8s to practise the shape on its own.
Page 2 mixes 8, 5 and 9, and page 3 mixes 6, 7, 8 and 9, so your child reviews the later numbers in the series alongside the new one. Each row starts with a model number on a maths block grid.
Skills Your Child Practises
- Writing the number 8
- Forming loops and crossing strokes
- Reviewing 5, 6, 7 and 9
- Pencil control and accuracy
How to Use This Worksheet
- Trace an 8 in the air with your child before writing on paper.
- Complete the page of 8s first.
- Check that both loops close.
- Say each number aloud on the mixed pages.
- Move to Week 11 when 8 is written confidently.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this worksheet about the number 57?
No. Week 10 practises the single number 8 and reviews 5, 6, 7 and 9. The 5–7 in the title is a range, not a two-digit number.
Why is 8 harder than other numbers?
It is written in one continuous stroke that crosses itself. Some children find it easier to draw two small circles stacked on top of each other at first.
Should we do all 3 pages in one sitting?
One page per sitting is enough for most children.
What comes after Week 10?
Week 11, the final worksheet in the series, practises 0 and 10.
