Worksheet Description

This worksheet is centered on the concept of the number 50 and involves a counting and graphing activity. At the top, students can write their name before beginning the exercise, which involves counting a collection of cupcake illustrations. Below the cupcakes is a blank graph, where students are instructed to color a square for each cupcake they have counted. The aim is to fill in the graph to visually represent the total number of cupcakes.

The worksheet is designed to teach students to count to 50 and to introduce them to the basics of creating a bar graph. By counting the cupcakes, children practice their counting skills in a fun and engaging way. Coloring the squares on the graph for each cupcake counted helps them make a visual connection between numbers and their corresponding quantities. This activity also serves to introduce the students to data representation, a key skill in early mathematics education.
