Math - Grade K-1
- 1
Fill in the missing number: 1, 2, 3, __, 5
Count by ones from 1.
The missing number is 4 because the pattern counts up by 1 each time. - 2
What number comes next? 6, 7, 8, 9, __
The next number is 10 because the pattern counts up by 1 each time. - 3
Fill in the two missing numbers: 2, 4, 6, __, __
Say the even numbers in order.
The missing numbers are 8 and 10 because the pattern counts by 2s. - 4
What number comes next? 5, 10, 15, __
Count by fives on your fingers.
The next number is 20 because the pattern counts by 5s. - 5
Fill in the missing number: 10, 9, 8, __, 6
The missing number is 7 because the pattern counts back by 1 each time. - 6
Look at the pattern: 3, 4, 5, 6. Write the next two numbers.
Keep counting after 6.
The next two numbers are 7 and 8 because the pattern counts up by 1. - 7
A number train shows 1, 3, 5, 7. What number should go in the next train car?
The next number should be 9 because the pattern counts by 2s. - 8
Fill in the missing numbers: 0, 2, 4, __, 8, __
Each number is 2 more than the number before it.
The missing numbers are 6 and 10 because the pattern counts by 2s. - 9
What number comes next? 12, 11, 10, 9, __
The next number is 8 because the pattern counts back by 1. - 10
Create a number pattern that starts at 1 and counts up by 1. Write five numbers.
Start with 1, then say the next number each time.
One correct pattern is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 because each number is 1 more than the last number. - 11
Look at the stars. The groups have 2 stars, 4 stars, and 6 stars. How many stars should be in the next group?
The next group should have 8 stars because the pattern adds 2 stars each time. - 12
Fill in the missing number: 5, 6, __, 8, 9
Count from 5 to 9.
The missing number is 7 because the pattern counts up by 1 each time. - 13
What number comes next in the hop pattern? 0, 5, 10, 15, __
The next number is 20 because the pattern counts by 5s. - 14
Circle the pattern that counts by 2s: 1, 2, 3, 4 or 2, 4, 6, 8.
A count-by-2 pattern skips one number each time.
The pattern 2, 4, 6, 8 counts by 2s because each number is 2 more than the number before it. - 15
Finish the pattern on the number cards: 4, 5, 6, __, __
The missing numbers are 7 and 8 because the pattern counts up by 1.
