Sprinkles on Cupcakes
Worksheet Description
This worksheet is populated with images of cupcakes, each adorned with a different number of sprinkles. Beside each cupcake is a blank box intended for a numerical response. Students are directed to draw one additional sprinkle on the top of each cupcake, count the total number of sprinkles including the one they have added, and write that total in the corresponding box. This task requires the students to engage in both artistic expression through drawing and numerical analysis by counting.
The worksheet is crafted to teach students simple addition by incrementing the number of objects by one. It also practices counting accuracy, as students must count the sprinkles after drawing the additional one. The task of drawing a sprinkle fine-tunes their motor skills, while writing the numbers helps in developing their numerical writing abilities. Essentially, this worksheet integrates basic arithmetic with an element of creative drawing to facilitate an engaging learning experience.
