Scoops
Worksheet Description
This worksheet features images of ice cream cones with varying numbers of scoops on them. Each cone is accompanied by a blank box where students are expected to write something. The task directed at the students is to draw one additional ice cream scoop on each cone and then count and record the total number of scoops in the corresponding box. The cones have different initial numbers of scoops, hence each addition will yield a different total.
The worksheet is designed to practice basic addition by having students increase a quantity by one. It reinforces counting skills, as they must count the scoops before and after drawing the additional one. The activity also helps in developing fine motor skills through the act of drawing and writing numbers. Essentially, it serves as an introduction to the concept of ‘one more’ in a fun and engaging context that young students can easily understand.
