Counting Backward from 120 Missing Numbers Worksheets | 1st Grade Math

Ribbit — ESL/EFL Worksheet Resource

Ten pages of counting backward within 120, with 8 number sequences per page (80 in all). Some sequences start at 120 or cross 100 (104, 103, 102…), some run down through the teens to 1, and the number of blanks grows down each page until the last rows give only the first and last number (53 … 44). Each page ends with a challenge box that asks which subtraction sentence gets you from one number to another, for example from 85 to 79. This links counting back to subtraction.
