Rosary question

[bm71]

Hi,
I was reading about rosary devotions and i’d like to start doing these but i am confused about what the first five Saturdays are, are they specific Saturdays of the year or just any 5 Saturdays in a row? also i was reading about rosary novenas and i don’t understand what it means to pray in petition and thanksgiving. can someone please explain?
Thank you
