About this resource

Description

Learning to count a small group of objects and write how many is a big first step in kindergarten math. This counting to five worksheet gives young learners friendly practice with the numbers 1 to 5. Children count each picture one time, say the last number as the total, and write that number in the box.

About This Worksheet

In the first part, children count three rows of colorful treats: oranges, cupcakes and cookies. Each row has between two and five pictures, and the rows are mixed up, so students really have to count instead of guessing. In the second part, children fill in the missing numbers in two short number lines from 1 to 5. This simple kindergarten counting worksheet works well for math centers, morning work, small groups or homework, and it takes about ten minutes to finish.

What’s Included

  • Three rows of pictures to count, from two to five objects
  • Answer boxes for writing each total
  • Two number sequences from 1 to 5 with missing numbers
  • A complete answer key for quick checking

Why This Worksheet Helps Kids

First, it builds one-to-one correspondence, because children touch and count each picture only once. Second, it links a counted group to the written numeral, which is a key kindergarten standard. Third, the missing number sequences help children learn the counting order from one to five, so they see that each number is one more than the number before it.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Before starting, give children five small snacks or blocks and let them count out loud as they touch each one. After they finish this counting to five worksheet, ask them which row has the most treats and which row has the fewest. You can also have children draw their own group of up to five things and ask a friend to count how many there are.
