Counts of Berries

Worksheet Description

The worksheet is a mathematics activity titled “Odd or Even,” which features rows of images of strawberries. For each row, there are two boxes beside the images; in the first box, students are to count and write the total number of strawberries, and in the second box, they are to classify that number as odd or even. This classification task uses a common, everyday fruit to make the concept more approachable for students. The worksheet is visually appealing, with a cartoon character included for added engagement.

This worksheet is designed to teach students how to identify and classify numbers as either odd or even. It combines counting practice with the concept of numerical classification, providing a foundation for understanding the basic properties of numbers. By physically counting the items and then determining the category, students reinforce their counting skills and begin to recognize patterns in numbers. This skill is an essential part of early mathematics education, as it lays the groundwork for more advanced arithmetic concepts and for understanding the binary nature of numbers.
