Choosing Counting Practice for 5th Grade

Counting worksheets build one-to-one correspondence, number recognition, and counting forward and backward.

Use the resource previews above to choose a counting activity that fits your learner. Check the directions, reading load, and answer-key availability on each resource before printing.
