What you’ll learn
- Counting in 6s and 7sSkip count by 6s to at least 72 and by 7s to at least 84.Counting by 6s and 7s makes bigger hops: 6, 12, 18, 24 and 7, 14, 21, 28. Everyday groups like six-packs of eggs and seven-day weeks make these patterns easier to picture, and they build the six and seven times tables.
- Counting in 9sSkip count by 9s and use the digit-sum pattern to check answers.Counting by 9s makes hops of nine: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45. A magic pattern helps: the tens digit climbs while the ones digit falls, and the two digits of every multiple of 9 always add up to 9.
- Counting in 25s and 1,000sSkip count by 25s and by 1,000s.Counting by 25s lands on 25, 50, 75, 00 and repeats, and four hops make 100 — just like four quarters make a dollar. Counting by 1,000s takes the biggest strides of all: 1,000, 2,000, 3,000.
