Counting Popsicles in 5s

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a colorful activity designed for students to practice skip counting by fives. It features rows with balloons marked with numbers and blank spaces that form a sequence when completed correctly. At the bottom of the page, there are numbers that students are instructed to cut out and paste into the correct positions within the sequence. The numbers provided at the bottom are not in order, so students must determine the correct order to complete the sequence in each row.

The worksheet’s goal is to help students learn and practice skip counting by fives, which is an essential mathematical skill for developing an understanding of number patterns and preparing for multiplication and division. The hands-on approach of cutting and pasting the numbers allows for an interactive learning experience, which can enhance engagement and memory retention. This activity also encourages students to recognize and understand the intervals between numbers in a sequence. Additionally, the task aids in developing fine motor skills and the ability to work with numbers in a tangible way.
