4 Fingers

Worksheet Description

This worksheet features illustrations of hands, each hand representing a step in the skip counting by fours sequence. Numbers are placed within some of the hand illustrations to guide the student through the counting pattern. Students are expected to recognize the pattern of incrementing by four and write the missing numbers on the hands that do not have a number. The hands serve both as a visual aid and as a representation of the concept of counting by fours.

The aim of this worksheet is to reinforce the student’s ability to identify and continue the pattern of counting by increments of four. It teaches them to quickly calculate and understand the intervals between numbers in a sequence, which is a fundamental arithmetic skill. This exercise not only strengthens mental math abilities but also prepares students for more advanced math concepts, such as multiplication. Additionally, using hand illustrations makes the activity more engaging and may assist in visualizing the concept of counting by groups.
