Filling In

Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents a spiral pattern with boxes that contain numbers representing a sequence for skip counting by fives. Starting with the number five, the sequence progresses with some numbers provided and others omitted. The numbers increase by increments of five, moving towards the center of the spiral. The students’ task is to fill in the missing numbers, ensuring the pattern of skip counting by fives is correctly continued throughout the spiral.

The purpose of the worksheet is to help students practice skip counting by fives, which is a vital skill in early mathematics that leads to an understanding of multiplication and division. It aids in reinforcing their ability to recognize numerical patterns and apply them to fill in missing numbers within a sequence. This spiral format provides a visual and engaging way for students to connect the concept of counting by fives with a physical pattern. Completing this exercise will enhance the students’ number sense and their familiarity with the five times table.
