About this resource

Description

This skip count by eight worksheet helps students count forward by eights from any number, not just from zero. When children skip count by eight from a number like 105, they learn to add eight again and again in their heads, and they practice keeping the count going smoothly when a pattern crosses a new hundred. Skip counting by eights builds number sense and gets kids ready for the times table of eight.

This 3rd grade skip counting worksheet has two parts. In Part A, students fill in the missing numbers in five number patterns that count by eight, using the given numbers as clues. Two of the lines cross a hundred, from 398 to 406 and from 893 to 901. In Part B, students solve three story problems about boxes and packs that each hold eight things. They write their skip count on the line and put the total in the answer box. Use the skip count by eight worksheet for morning work, a math center, homework, or a quick check after a lesson on number patterns.

What’s Included

  • Five number patterns that count by eight, each with five missing numbers
  • Three story problems solved by skip counting groups of eight
  • A skip count line and an answer box for every story problem
  • Cartoon pictures of a crayon box, a juice box carton, and a box of books
  • A complete answer key

Why It Helps Kids

First, counting by eight from numbers that are not multiples of eight makes students really add instead of reciting a memorized list. Second, lines that cross a hundred build confidence with three-digit numbers. Third, the story problems show that skip counting is a fast way to add equal groups, which prepares students for multiplication.

Ideas for Teachers and Parents

Before starting, count by eights out loud from a number like 13 and have children clap on every number they say. After the worksheet, ask students to look at the ones digits in each line and describe the pattern they notice. Kids can also write their own story problem about boxes of eight and trade it with a friend.
