Squares and Stars

Worksheet Description

This worksheet features a series of numbers from 1 to 20, with several numbers missing from the sequence. The numbers are placed inside stars that form a larger pattern, creating a connect-the-dots type of activity. Students are instructed to count forwards and fill in the missing numbers in the stars, with the goal of forming a continuous sequence from 1 to 20. The exercise combines numerical sequencing with a visual element to engage students in the counting process.

The worksheet is aimed at teaching students to count from 1 to 20 in the correct order. It helps in reinforcing the students’ ability to recognize and sequence numbers, an essential foundational math skill. The activity also serves to develop number writing skills, as students must write the missing numbers in the appropriate stars. Additionally, the star pattern can make the learning process more enjoyable, potentially increasing the students’ interest in mathematics.
