Let’s go step by step to solve this worksheet task.
The instruction says:
“Color, count and trace the number.”
We are focusing on the number
5.

Step 1: Count the sharks
Look at the group of shark pictures on the right side.
Let’s count them one by one:
- First shark (top left)
- Second shark (top right)
- Third shark (middle right)
- Fourth shark (bottom left)
- Fifth shark (bottom right)
✔ That’s
5 sharks total.
So the picture matches the number 5 — good!

Step 2: Trace the dotted numbers
Below the word “five”, there are two rows of dotted number 5s.
Each row has five dotted 5s to trace.
You should use a pencil or crayon to carefully trace over each dotted line to make solid number 5s.
There are no calculations here — just tracing practice.

Step 3: Color (optional but part of instructions)
The big number 5 and the word “five” can be colored in if you want — maybe blue like the ocean, since there are sharks!
Also, you could color the sharks — gray with white bellies, or any fun colors!
But since we’re solving for correctness, coloring is creative — not graded for accuracy.

Final Check:
- Did we count 5 sharks?
✔ Yes.
- Are we supposed to trace ten 5s (two rows of five)?
✔ Yes.
- Is everything matching the number 5?
✔ Yes.
No math errors. No miscounts. All steps completed.

Final Answer:
Counted 5 sharks. Traced all ten dotted 5s (two rows of five). Number and word match correctly.
