Number lines with equal jumps of 5, 10 or 100 and missing numbers to fill in.
What kids practice
Skip counting means counting by the same amount each time, like 5, 10, 15, 20. Second graders count by 5s, 10s and 100s, and count by 1s all the way to 1,000. Skip counting is the start of multiplication and makes counting money and time much faster.
Watch for
- Going from 199 to 1100 or 2000 instead of 200.
- Counting by 10s from 237 and writing 240 instead of 247.
- Losing the pattern in the middle of a long row.
It's free to print, with Fewer, Standard or More on the page and an answer key. See the full skip counting guide for 2nd grade.
