About this resource

The 'Skip Counting by 2’s' worksheets are easy-to-use teaching resources ideal for educators of Foundation and Year 1 students. This helpful resource was developed to enhance young learners' understanding of the essential skill of skip counting, specifically focusing on counting by 2's, which is pivotal in early maths development.

Each worksheet features an inviting, uncomplicated design with number spaces that guide students as they count from 2 to 20. These worksheets come with three different layout variations tailored to various learning styles and levels of proficiency:

  • One version provides all numbers from 2-20 already written out for trace practice.
  • The second version meets learners halfway, providing only a few numbers as checkpoints so the student can fill in the rest while practising skip counting.
  • The last activity sheet challenges budding Mathematicians further because it only shows the number '2', asking them to complete the form using their knowledge gained from counting practice.

'Skip Counting by 2’s' not only introduces youngsters to numerical sequences but also sows seeds for understanding multiplication further down their academic journey. Skip counting emphasises that multiplication is simply repeated addition; for example - adding 'two' ten times equates multiplying ten by two!

These PDF worksheets could be implemented during whole class instruction time or small group sessions depending on student need & educator teaching style preference at any given time or space during your structured Maths periods throughout your academic year.
