About this worksheet
Eight number lines that skip count by 2s, 5s, 10s, 25s and 100s, each starting at a different number and missing four values. Students first work out the step from the numbers they can see, then fill in the boxes. Skip counting on a line prepares second graders for multiplication and for counting money. Answer key included. It fits second grade, around ages 7 to 8. Say the row out loud to hear the pattern.
Tips for using it
- Find the step between two numbers first, then keep going.
- Let children hop with a finger or a small toy on the line before they draw hops with a pencil.
- Always mark the start number with a dot first; most mistakes come from counting the start as a hop.
- Say "forward" for adding and "back" for subtracting while hopping, so the direction sticks.
