Fifth gear is like overdrive, it is meant for flat open highway driving. It is a gas saving gear so that you can travel at highway speeds at low rpm and your engine is just too small to use that gear at any other time. So use it on flat or slightly down sloped roads, fourth should be your normal gear for from about 45 to 65.

What happens when engage first gear before stopping?
You will slow down. If you down-shift from 2nd to 1st, you will slow down somewhat. If you down-shift from 4th, 5th or 6th gear, you will slow down very dramatically. It would give you a similar feeling as if you had slammed on the brakes and locked up the wheels. Not recommended.

That is a shift pattern, only problem is your pattern would be 1 down and 4 up. From neutral position, you click the shift lever down to go into first gear, then each time you shift you will click one position (gear) up at a time until you are in 5th gear.
