  KinderMath: Count By 5's Part 1
We will begin the lesson by reading Lots of Ladybugs by Michael Dahl to focus on counting by 5’s. It’s important that the kids know and understand that when we are counting by 5’s, we are merely skipping over given numbers to get to the final amount quickly. To help students understand, I will draw a horizontal number line with the 5, 10, 15, and 20 in an alternate color. (Kids need time to understand and process the strategies so they are able to utilize it in their lives.) For the next activity, each pair will need a baggie with 20 items and 4 blank five frames. They will work with their partner to place the items within the 5 frames until all five are filled then count the five filled frames by 5’s.
