We don't spend a lot of formal instruction time on Ordinal Numbers. Mostly, we learn it in mini-lessons/activities (Math Warm-Ups) and in context through other problems. But here are a few quick activities I do to make sure the kids have a good understanding of it...
In Texas, kindergartners only need to verbally name the positions 1st, 2nd and 3rd. If they can go beyond 3rd, and/or write the ordinal numbers (abbreviations), they recieve an "exceeds expectations" on their report card.

The next activity is a fun one-- 4 riddles that the kids have to solve (process of elimination).
But if you want it, you have to do me a favor. Please go to the Facebook page for Kindergarten Kindergarten. While you're there, take a second and LIKE Kindergarten Kindergarten. The link for this activity is there. Shameless, I know. But I need to be liked!
Thanks so much for your support!
