About this coloring page
Nineteen is one less than twenty. This number 19 coloring page has a big 19, the word nineteen in bubble letters, and nineteen space shapes, stars and planets taking turns, so there are ten stars and nine planets. They sit in three rows of five and one row of four.
Because the stars and planets alternate, nineteen shows how a number can be split into two groups that are almost equal. Like seventeen, nineteen cannot be shared into equal groups bigger than one. To write 19, write a 1 and then a 9, circle first and line down. Ask what one more would make. Coloring the last planet and saying "nineteen" before "twenty" is a nice way to show what comes next in the counting sequence.
