A Font with an Open 4! (A Student-Friendly Number Font)

As a math teacher I am FOREVER guiding my students to write open 4s, rather than those fancy 4s that end up looking more like 9s.
I know I am not alone in this, right??
I have quested for years to find the best Google Font with an open 4 to provide the perfect example for my math learners.
(If you’ve visited the blog before, you know how much I love sharing Google Font finds…especially student-friendly ones!)
And I’m SO happy to share more now, as I’ve FINALLY stumbled upon the perfect number font with an open 4!
A Font with an Open 4

Just look at that four!! (and the other digits are nice as well!)
This font is aptly named Teachers and also features clear, beautiful letters…very similar to Lexend (my all-time favorite font these days!).
And Teachers has a variety of font weights, which is always so awesome:

Add This Font to Your Drive…Instantly!
To save you time, I set up a Google Doc with this amazing number font. Once you make a copy, open the font menu and scroll down to Teachers (not under Recent fonts, but the main font list).
Click on Teachers and it will be added instantly to your fonts menu!
