5s Gumballs

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a colorful activity designed to help students practice skip counting by fives with a gumball machine theme. It features a grid with some cells filled with multiples of five and others left blank, alongside a selection of gumball illustrations, each numbered with the missing multiples. The task for students is to cut out the gumballs and paste them into the correct positions on the grid to complete the skip counting sequence. The engaging design of the worksheet aims to make learning numbers and counting more enjoyable.

The worksheet is structured to teach students the pattern of numbers when counting by fives, improving their understanding of number sequences and intervals. By physically moving the gumballs and placing them in order, students engage in a hands-on learning experience that enhances their ability to remember the sequence. This activity also aids in developing fine motor skills through the cutting and pasting process. Furthermore, it introduces a fundamental concept that forms the basis for multiplication, preparing students for more complex mathematical operations.
