About this resource
Description
This skip count by nine worksheet helps students count forward by nines from any number, not just from zero. When children skip count by nine from a number like 104, they learn to add nine again and again in their heads, and they practice keeping the count going smoothly when a pattern crosses a new hundred. Skip counting by nines builds number sense and gets kids ready for the times table of nine.
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 nine, using the given numbers as clues. Three of the lines cross a hundred, such as 292 to 301 and 892 to 901. In Part B, students solve three story problems about boxes and packs that each hold nine things. They write their skip count on the line and put the total in the answer box. Use the skip count by nine 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 nine, each with five missing numbers
- Three story problems solved by skip counting groups of nine
- A skip count line and an answer box for every story problem
- Drawn pictures of a pencil box, a snack bar box, and a peach box
- A complete answer key
Why It Helps Kids
First, counting by nine from numbers that are not multiples of nine 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, show children a quick trick: adding nine is the same as adding ten and then taking away one. Count by nines out loud from a number like 12 using that trick. 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 nine and trade it with a friend.
