Description

This math clip art image continues the sequence of counting by twos, now including the numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 using pennies. The visual representation displays five groups of pennies, each containing two coins. This image marks the halfway point in our journey of counting by 2s to 20.

Reaching 10 in this counting sequence is an important step, as it bridges the gap between single-digit and double-digit numbers. This transition helps students understand how skip counting can efficiently count larger quantities of pennies.

The consistent use of pennies throughout the series helps students see how the pattern of adding 2 each time remains consistent, even as we approach larger numbers. This visual representation reinforces the concept of skip counting and its practical applications.

Teacher's Script: "We've reached 10 pennies! Let's count together: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. Notice how 10 is made up of 5 groups of 2 pennies. Can you show me 10 fingers? Now, can you group them in twos like our pennies?"
