How to skip count in ascending order?

Example

To skip count by 2 in ascending order, I add 2 to the first number.

Next, I skip count again from the new number. Since the “jumps” must always be equal, I always add 2.

Different tools such as a number strip or a number table can be used to help you skip counting.

Example

Tip

You can imagine a frog leaping over numbers while always making equal-sized jumps.

Example

When skip counting by 3 in descending order, I subtract 3 from the first number.

Next, I skip count again from the new number. Since the “jumps” should always be equal, I always subtract 3.
