View all skip counting worksheetsSkip counting by 3s (3, 6, 9, 12...) is essentially the 3 times table. When students can fluently skip count by a number, they already know the multiplication facts for that number. It is the natural bridge from counting to multiplication.
Kindergarten: count by 10s. Grade 1: count by 2s, 5s, and 10s. Grade 2: count by 2s, 3s, 5s, 10s, and 100s. This progression builds the foundation for multiplication fact fluency.
