Description

This math clip art image advances the concept of counting by twos, now showing the progression from 2 to 12 using pennies. The visual representation displays six groups of pennies, each containing two coins. This image demonstrates how skip counting extends into double-digit numbers.

Moving into double-digit numbers is a significant step in mathematical understanding. It helps students see how the pattern of counting by 2s remains consistent, regardless of the size of the numbers involved. The use of pennies provides a tangible representation of this concept.

As students near the midpoint of this counting by 2s sequence, they are developing a strong sense of number patterns and relationships. This understanding forms a crucial foundation for more advanced mathematical concepts, including multiplication and division.

Teacher's Script: "We're now counting past 10 pennies! Let's count together: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12. Do you notice anything special about these numbers? That's right, they're all even numbers! When we count by 2s, we always land on even numbers."
