How Teachers Should Teach Numbers in ESL Classes
Numbers are essential for everyday communication. ESL students use numbers when talking about age, prices, time, dates, phone numbers, and quantities. Teachers should teach numbers gradually and connect them to real-life situations.
Step 1: Teaching Numbers 1–20
Begin with numbers from 1 to 20 because they are the foundation of all other numbers. Pronunciation is very important at this stage.
- 1 – one
- 5 – five
- 10 – ten
- 15 – fifteen
- 20 – twenty
Teachers should model pronunciation clearly and ask students to repeat.
---Step 2: Teaching Tens (20–100)
Explain the difference between numbers ending in -teen and -ty. This is often difficult for Arab students.
- 13 (thirteen) vs 30 (thirty)
- 14 (fourteen) vs 40 (forty)
- 15 (fifteen) vs 50 (fifty)
Stress and pronunciation should be practiced carefully.
---Step 3: Teaching Large Numbers
Once students understand tens, introduce larger numbers.
- 100 – one hundred
- 1,000 – one thousand
- 10,000 – ten thousand
Explain the use of commas in English numbers.
---Step 4: Teaching Ordinal Numbers
Ordinal numbers are used for dates and order.
- 1st – first
- 2nd – second
- 3rd – third
- 4th – fourth
- 21st – twenty-first
Teaching Numbers in Real-Life Contexts
Numbers should not be taught alone. Teachers should connect them to daily life.
- Age: I am twelve years old.
- Prices: It is five dollars.
- Phone numbers
- Classroom objects
Classroom Activities for Numbers Practice
- Counting objects in the classroom
- Number dictation
- Matching numbers and words
- Role-play (shopping, phone calls)
Common Mistakes Arab ESL Students Make
