About Number "5"

5 Strawberries

On the left side, there are 5 strawberries.
Point with your finger and count out loud, "1, 2, 3..."
If the last number you count is Number "5", you got it right!
Coloring the strawberries one by one after you count them is super fun, too.

What Is a Strawberry?

Strawberries are sweet and sour fruit that everyone loves. Lots of them are picked in the spring.
The tiny bumps on a strawberry look like seeds, but each one is actually a tiny fruit! The sweet, red part is actually the base that grew big and juicy to hold the fruits.

Let's Count with "Ko"

Small things like strawberries are counted as "1-ko, 2-ko, 3-ko" using "ko". In kanji, "ko" is written as "個".
Japanese is cool because the counting words change depending on the object!
Try thinking with your family about how to count different things around you.

Look for Number "5" Around You

You have 5 fingers on one hand. A star shape has 5 points, too.
Look around your home or when you go outside to see if any Number "5"s are hiding!
When you find one, point at it and say, "Number "5"!"
It is also fun to look for things with the Number "5" on them, like the 5th day on a calendar or 5 o'clock on a clock.

Look Closely at the Shape of Number "5"

Number "5" looks like a face wearing a hat. The top line looks like the brim of a hat!
When you pretend a shape is something else, it is easier to remember the number.
What does it look like to you?

If you color them one by one, you will learn the number shapes, how to read them, and how many they mean step by step.
At first, it is a great idea to trace the numbers with your finger together with a family member!
