Jump on Tens: Counting Fun

Learners combine counting, multiples, and number patterns with jumping up and down. To start, pick a counting number. Young learners count by 1’s or 2’s; older children by 5’s or 10’s; for more challenge, learners count by 3’s, 7’s, or 2.5’s. Everyone takes turns saying the next number in the counting sequence and jumps whenever anyone says a number ending in 0. Try adding extra actions: clap your hands on a number with a ‘4’ in it, or hop on each odd number. [Activity is publicly available through a web crawler capture on Archive.org.]
