Patterns of 2, 5, and 10
Give your young counters practice with skip counting and colors as they shade in number grids by 2s, 5s, and 10s. The three grids reach 50, and the first one is partially completed to give scholars an example. They follow directions by...

Counting by 1s, 10s, and 100s
These sequences are missing numbers and require some skip counting to complete. Scholars finish rows of numbers first counting by 1s, then 10s, and finally 100s. Each has three given numbers to get them started, and they fill in five...

Counting by 3s, 4s, and 5s
Skip count along the mushrooms to complete these number sentences which give young scholars an introductory look at addition and subtraction. Starting from five double-digit numbers, they subtract or add by threes, fours, and fives to...

Counting by 2s, part 2
Two, four, six, eight...can your scholars count by twos? They fill in missing numbers in 18 number sequences, all of which require skip counting by twos. Some begin on an even number and others odd, however all of these are whole...

Finding Patterns
What's the pattern? Learners skip count to complete 12 sequences, some of which increase and some of which decrease. As they solve each number pattern they count by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, and 100, getting some extra subtraction and addition...
