Number 17 Tracing Worksheet – Learn to Write and Count

Pick some fruity fun with the number 17!
This engaging worksheet introduces early learners to the number seventeen using a large pear illustration that makes the page warm, friendly, and inviting for young children. As kids begin practicing teen numbers, having a clear and visually appealing page helps build confidence and interest in early math.

Children start by tracing the digits 17 using dotted lines that support handwriting development. Beneath the numeral, they trace the number word “seventeen”, giving them the chance to connect the written spelling with the numeral. Tracing both the digit and the word helps reinforce recognition, spelling, and early numeracy skills.

At the bottom of the worksheet, a group of 17 small pears is displayed in a neat and organized layout. Children are asked to color all 17 pears, encouraging one-to-one correspondence and helping them internalize the meaning of the quantity. Coloring the pears turns counting practice into an enjoyable hands-on activity that strengthens visual understanding of the number.
