Questions and answers
What is skip counting?
Counting forward by the same jump each time: by 2s is 2, 4, 6, 8; by 5s is 5, 10, 15, 20.
Can the count start at any number?
Yes. Type a start number from 0 to 999; with start 3 and by 3s the sheet reads 3, 6, 9 and on.
Which boxes are empty?
Every 2nd, 3rd or 4th box, counted from the start of each row; random boxes chosen by the sheet number; or every box but the first in each row.
Boxes or a number line?
Boxes print the count in a row of squares. The number line marks each jump with a hop labeled with the jump, and the numbers sit under the ticks.
Is there a skip counting chart with no blanks?
Yes. Choose None (a full chart) under Empty boxes. That sheet has no answer key, as nothing is missing.
