Lesson 2

Counting by Fives

Estimated Class Sessions: 2–3

Extension

If you have access to computers equipped with a drawing program like Kid Pix, students can use it to reinforce the counting concepts developed here. Using the copy and paste functions of these programs, students can create drawings by pasting objects in twos, threes, fives, or tens. As students add objects electronically, they can use them for skip counting.
