Bear 10 Skips

Worksheet Description

The worksheet is organized into columns, each topped with a cartoon train and the numbers 10 through 60 labeled as ‘Car 1’ through ‘Car 6’. Below each number, there is a vertical sequence of empty ovals where students are expected to write the subsequent multiples of ten. The clear structure of the worksheet directs students to fill in these ovals, effectively creating a list of numbers in the ten times table under each corresponding starting number. In the footer, there’s a self-assessment section where students can mark how they felt about the activity by circling one of three emoticon faces.

This worksheet is focused on teaching students how to skip count by tens, which is a fundamental arithmetic skill. The trains serve as a visual aid to engage students and help them visualize the sequence of numbers as connected carriages. The task helps students to reinforce their understanding of the base-ten number system and to recognize the pattern that occurs when counting by tens. The emoticon faces for self-assessment allow students to reflect on their feelings towards the exercise, promoting emotional literacy alongside numerical education.
