Skip Counting by 2s and 5s - Year 1

Click here to preview this resource

Build confident skip counting with an explicit-teaching presentation, editable quiz, colour display, two hands-on games, five scaffolded worksheets and a fresh market-stall assessment. Students practise equal +2 and +5 jumps from zero and other starting numbers, find missing or incorrect numbers, quantify equal groups and add small leftovers in ones.

The presentation and quiz remain editable PowerPoint files. Worksheets, assessment pages and rubric are black and white for practical classroom printing. Six matching answer pages reproduce the student pages with red ANSWERS labels and red answers in the response spaces.
