Counting in 2s, 5s and 10s - PowerPoint

In a comprehensive set of Maths Teaching Resources, Year 2 students are introduced to the fundamental concept of counting in increments of 2s, 5s, and 10s. The objective of the resources is to enable students to confidently count forwards and backwards using these increments. The materials include a PowerPoint presentation for classroom instruction, along with a variety of worksheets that challenge students to continue number sequences, identify patterns, and understand the principles of counting in groups. The exercises are designed to help children recognise the structure of number sequences and build their numerical fluency in a fun and engaging way.

The worksheets provided cater to a range of activities, from continuing sequences to solving mazes by counting in steps. For example, students may be asked to find and colour the odd one out in a sequence, or navigate through a maze by counting forwards or backwards. These practical and interactive tasks not only reinforce the counting concepts but also encourage critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Additionally, the worksheets include scenarios where students must verify statements related to counting patterns, further enhancing their understanding of the topic. With these resources, educators can effectively guide their students in mastering the skill of counting by 2s, 5s, and 10s, which is vital for their mathematical development.
