Skip Counting                                                       Remember


            Skip counting is skipping and counting. Fix a number                 Skip counting is adding
            to skip. Start the count from any given number. Skip                 a fixed number.

            the fixed number and continue counting.                                2 + 2 = 4    4 + 2 = 6

            Look at the given examples.                                                  6 + 2 = 8


              1.  Starting from 2, skip count in 2s.










                    0   1    2   3    4   5    6   7    8   9   10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19               20

                   Notice, this is similar to the table of 2.

              2.  Starting from 11, skip count in 3s.











                   10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29                              30

              3.  Starting from 0, skip count in 5s.











                    0    1   2   3    4   5    6   7    8   9   10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19                20


              8   Skip count the given number on the number line.


              (a)  Starting from 3, skip count in 3s.









                    0   1    2   3    4   5    6   7   8    9   10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19               20
