Paste What’s Next

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed as an interactive activity where students are required to cut out groups of numbers that are sequenced by counting in fives. On the left side of the page, there are strips of numbers that need to be cut out and matched to their correct place in the sequence on the right side, which is set up as a dotted vertical line with some numbers already provided. The numbers on the right are out of order, and spaces are available to insert the missing sequences. At the end of the activity, students have the opportunity to evaluate their performance using a three-face emoticon scale ranging from sad to happy.

The worksheet’s goal is to teach students how to understand and continue number sequences that increment by fives. It combines the cognitive challenge of recognizing numerical patterns with the physical activity of cutting and pasting, which can help enhance fine motor skills and reinforce memory through action. This task also introduces basic elements of problem-solving as students must determine where each strip of numbers belongs within the sequence. Furthermore, the self-assessment section at the bottom of the page encourages students to reflect on their understanding of the skip counting concept.
