Why do children need to learn to count by 1s, 5s, 10s, and 100s with numbers less than 1,000? AND... how do we teach this skill? SKILL: Numbers and Operations in Base Ten - 2.NBT.A.2 Count within 1,000; skip-count by 5s, 10s, and 100s. WHY DO WE TEACH SKIP COUNTING? Skip counting is important not only because it becomes a basic life skill students can apply outside school, but one they will continue to use as they move up to the next grade. Activities such as sport, being paid an allowance, meal planning, shopping or even counting large quantities are made easier by the ability to skip count. Many students may not even realize they are skip counting when scoring for games like basketball and football. Click Here to Download this Counting Patterns Within 1,000 Task Cards, Color By Numbers, and Center Games Bundle For Your Classroom Today Children become increasingly strong mathematician when using skip counting for basic tasks, for example, telling time and dealing with money. Skip counting is also essential as it lays a mathematical foundation for multiplication and division problems. Learning this skill and committing it to their tool box of mental math tricks during the primary grades, allows for a more positive math experiences in the intermediate grades and as a primary teacher, providing this "little skill" is actually a very import one! An Introductory Lesson to Skip Counting * Give your students a hundred chart, or based on your district's standards, a 120 chart. I have both of these charts available for you as a freebie on TpT. Click here is you need it. * Allow time for partners to fill out their charts together, or whole table groups. Allow them to build from each other's previous knowledge of counting to 100. Different {Free} 100 and 120 Charts * Next, quickly review Counting Patterns Within 100. Project one of the charts to your board, either a completely blank one, or if pressed for time, one that is partially filled out. Call students up to the board or your document camera area to fill out the chart for you. Pick one or two of the items below to review from my Counting Patterns Within 100 blog post. Praise and congratulations ~ let them know when it is done that they have reviewed and mastered counting by ones. But next is a real challenge and are they up for "harder math?" "3rd grade math?" "adult math?" any term you would like to use to build enthusiasm and keep them engaged. Most boys and girls will cheer when you tell them it is too hard for them, {wink, wink} but continue to teach it and they master something you told them would be oh... sooooo... hard. :) * Continuing - Let the students select one crayon, only one color, then guide them with your hundred chart on the board to color all the even numbers, using this lesson to review EVEN numbers.... discuss that counting by two is the same as coloring in all the even numbers. Have them take a random line and count / clap on the evens. For example, 11 CLAP 13 CLAP 15 CLAP 17 CLAP, etc. Review counting by 2s a few more times with different random lines. * Now using the same chart but a different color, color in all the Counting by 5s numbers. Let the students discover that 10, 20, 30, etc. will now be colored twice and then explain that those numbers will appear both when you are counting by 2s and counting by 5s. * This becomes a terrific transition when doing the last set, counting by 10s. ALL of the 10s will already be filled in on their charts. {If you are limited in your teaching time, this freebie has the numbers already filled in for your students, just print and you are ready to start at the third step of this lesson.} To Continuing the Lesson on Skip Counting * Next practice counting by 1s, 5s and 10s in isolation. Show the students that not only can they count on by different amounts, they can also starting counting with different numbers. Here are some examples if you need a jump start that you can project on your board. Count by ones. 1. 1, 2, 3, ___, ___, ___ 2. 35, 36, 37, ___, ___, ___ Count by fives. 1. 5, 10, 15, ___, ___, ___ 2. 55, 60, 65, ___, ___, ___ Count by tens. 1. 10, 20, 30, ___, ___, ___ 2. 40, 50, 60, ___, ___, ___ * Next practice counting by 1s, 5s and 10s in the middle of a counting pattern.

Have each student tell what they are holding 100 of, for example, jelly beans, gummy bears.... once a child says 100 dollars, that's it, they will all pick MONEY, money talks in the primary grades. :) LOL! * Stick with the same skip counting as yesterday, with tapping each student and counting 100, 200, 300, 400, etc. This method builds on their previous knowledge of the fact that you were counting hands, now you are counting what is IN THEIR HANDS! They love it.... * Next practice counting by 5s, 10s and 100s in isolation. Show the students that not only can they count on by different amounts, they can also starting counting with different numbers. Project this web page on your board for a quick help!

Quickly discuss that each hand has five fingers and that you DO NOT need to count each finger, each time, you know it will be five now, five later, five tomorrow, etc. But, now start with 200 and practice counting on. You tap each hand with your hand or a teacher pointer and count, 205, 210, 215, 220, etc. with each tap. Repeat with the students counting along with you. Repeat with a student helper tapping the hands this time. Rotate out your students so that every student has many turns, using 400, then 660, maybe a challenging start with 940. My students use to love this simple activity. * Next, start small with five students or again with ten students at the front of the classroom. Have your students place their own hands together with interlocking fingers, so that each student has ONE GROUP of fingers in their interlocked hands. Quick review that each child has TEN FINGERS and that number will not change, etc. Then start with 600 and count on by TENS as you tap each child, repeat, repeat, repeat! This little activity is also terrific at dismissal or if everyone is lined up ready for the music teacher, but her door is not open.... just a cute, quick time filler! Start with 200, 310, 800, 570, 400, 140, etc. to help you with a few quick examples for when you are tired and ready to go home, like at 9:00 am! Enjoy! :) When you are done with your lessons, I have some great resources for small group time, assessments, centers, seat work or even a spiral review later when you move to chapter two, Numbers to 1,000.

Once your students know the expectations of using center games, your math skills math center can run all year with different skills from a variety of over 1,500+ of my center games! Click here to see all my center games. There are many ways to use this Counting Patterns within 1,000 Resource, here are a few of my favorite ways: Use one page as a game board, cut the other page. Place all those cards face down. Have the students turn over one card at a time, solve and place face up on the board. If they are incorrect, the card returns to the bottom of the pile. The winner is the student who places the final card. OR, for a "no winner" version, the goal is for the students to solve the cards independently, but to completely cover the board together. This version can ALSO be played two ways. One way is with the answer page as the game board, another way is with the math problem page as the game board instead. You can also play this game with cutting all the cards and matching up the problems with the solutions. For movement, place the problem cards around the room and the student(s) have to solve the math problem and leave the correct answer card at that location. Have a second student check the answers to extend the game. Mix all the cards together, with two students, deal 5 cards to each student and then place the remaining cards face down. Use as a Go Fish card game! Lay all the cards upside down on the floor and use as a Concentration (some call it Memory) Game!

When I first introduce Color By Numbers / Color By Codes to my students, I model a few on the document camera during the first week of school. This is especially important for a review of colors and reading the color words. I teach them to line up the crayon to the color word on the paper. Once they know it is PINK and not another "p word" for example PURPLE, I have them circle the word in the "Color By Code" box so that they can complete the worksheet independently when I'm at Small Groups later in the school year. {I wrote an entire blog post about this tip for new non-English speakers working on Color By Number and Color By Code resources, click here if you would like to read more.} Click Here to Download this Counting Patterns Within 1,000 Task Cards, Color By Numbers, and Center Games Bundle For Your Classroom Today Having markers at your math center, creates a little joy and allows the center to be a little more high interest for the boys and girls.
