Count in 5s and fill in the missing numbers. Also, identify the position of letters in a word and the next three shapes in a pattern.

The sequence starts with 5, 10, 15, 20. To count in 5s, add 5 to the previous number.

$$20 + 5 = 25$$ $$25 + 5 = 30$$ $$30 + 5 = 35$$ $$35 + 5 = 40$$ $$40 + 5 = 45$$ $$45 + 5 = 50$$

The completed sequence is: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50.

For each butterfly, add 5 to the given number to find the next number.

• a) $39 + 5 = 44$
• b) $50 + 5 = 55$
• c) $75 + 5 = 80$

The word is P-E-A-C-O-C-K.

• a) The letter E is the 2nd letter.
• b) The letter O is the 5th letter.

The pattern is: Blue Pentagon, Orange Triangle, Red Square, Green Circle. This sequence repeats.
The last shape shown is a Green Circle. Therefore, the next three shapes will be the start of the repeating sequence.

1. Blue Pentagon
2. Orange Triangle
3. Red Square

Here are the answers:

5. Count in 5s and fill in the missing numbers.

• a) The missing numbers are: 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50. $$5, 10, 15, 20, \boxed{25}, \boxed{30}, \boxed{35}, \boxed{40}, \boxed{45}, \boxed{50}$$
• b) The missing numbers for the butterflies are:
  • Next to 39: $\boxed{44}$
  • Next to 50: $\boxed{55}$
  • Next to 75: $\boxed{80}$

6. Write the position of the letters E and O in the word PEACOCK.

• a) E: $\boxed{\text{2nd}}$
• b) O: $\boxed{\text{5th}}$

7. Draw and colour the next three shapes to complete the pattern.
The pattern is: Blue Pentagon, Orange Triangle, Red Square, Green Circle.
The next three shapes are:

1. A blue pentagon.
2. An orange triangle.
3. A red square.
