Students get to skip count and complete a connect-the-dots puzzle on these fun worksheets! Each page begins by telling students to count by a specific number from one to five. Then, numbers that follow that pattern are listed below. Every list of numbers includes blanks for students to fill in. For example, on a page where students are instructed to "Count by 3s," they might write the numbers 21, 27, 51, 60, 78, 93, and 105 in the blanks.

An incomplete image is provided below. Dots are labeled with the numbers that follow the pattern on the page. Students must connect the dots in order. They can use the numbers listed above to help. When they're done, they can color the picture.

Skip counting challenges students to use their critical thinking skills. It supports pattern discovery, and it provides a foundation for learning the principles of multiplication.

Skip counting activities can be as simple as asking students to fill in the numbers on a number line, but there are fun skip counting activities you can try! For example, you can have students complete a connect-the-dots activity where every dot is a number in a skip counting pattern. You can mix up a pile of numbered cards, and students have to put them in order according to a skip counting pattern. Skip counting mazes can also be a fun way for students to identify the next correct number in a pattern.
