Learning Objective
I can find number patterns by counting by 5s and 10s.
Today we will learn how to find number patterns by counting by 5s and 10s. Math helps us solve problems and understand the world around us.
Counting means saying numbers in order and matching each number to an object. When we count 5 apples, we point to each apple and say "1, 2, 3, 4, 5." The last number we say tells us HOW MANY apples there are. Always start at 1 and say each number once for each object. This is called one-to-one correspondence.
Let's break this down step by step so it's easy to understand. Follow along with the examples, and don't worry if it takes some practice to get the hang of it!
Remember: Making mistakes is part of learning. If something is tricky, try again, look at the examples, or ask for help.

Teaching Tip
For younger learners: Use concrete objects and hands-on activities when teaching find number patterns by counting by 5s and 10s. Keep sessions short (10-15 minutes) and incorporate movement or songs when possible.
