To solve this problem, we need to put the numbers in order from smallest to largest. This is called ascending order.
Step 1: Look at the numbers provided in the circles at the top: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Step 2: Identify the first number in the sequence. The counting starts with
1. So, the first empty circle on the caterpillar (right after the head) should have the number 1.
Step 3: Identify the next number. After 1 comes
2. So, the second circle gets the number 2.
Step 4: Continue the pattern. After 2 comes
3, then
4, and finally
5.
Step 5: Place the numbers in the empty circles from left to right to match the counting order.
The correct order for the circles on the caterpillar is:
1. First circle:
1
2. Second circle:
2
3. Third circle:
3
4. Fourth circle:
4
5. Fifth circle:
5
Final Answer:
The numbered circles should be glued in this order from left to right:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
