Ordering numbers worksheet
Each row gives four mixed-up numbers and four empty boxes. The child rewrites the numbers in order. Pick the numbers, pick smallest first or largest first, then print. Free, no account, no ads.
Numbers
Every number is a whole number from 1 to 10, so every number is a single digit. No set is four numbers in a row and no number repeats, so every row is a real comparison.
Order
The same comparing either way. Largest first is the one children meet less often, so it is worth doing once they are steady on smallest first.
Orientation
Ordering Numbers
Write each set of numbers in order, from smallest to largest.

How it works
Each row shows a set of four numbers that are not in order, an arrow, and four empty boxes. The child compares the numbers and writes them again in the boxes, in the order the sheet asks for. Every number is used once. The numbers on each sheet are generated fresh, so New version gives you a different worksheet at the same level.
How this differs from missing and before and after numbers
Missing numbers and before and after numbers are about a number's neighbours: the number just before or just after it. This sheet is different. It gives a handful of numbers that are not in order and are not next to each other, and asks the child to compare them and line them up from smallest to largest. That is a bigger step: instead of one number's neighbours, the child weighs several numbers against each other.
Where it fits
Do missing numbers and before and after numbers first, since reading and recalling a single number's neighbours comes before comparing a whole set. The printable hundreds chart is the reference a child can check when they get stuck, and count and color builds the numeral recognition this sheet assumes. The kindergarten and grade 1 pages gather the resources for this age, and when written arithmetic is the right level you can make a worksheet in seconds.
