About this resource
Description
This skip count by three worksheet helps students count forward by threes from any number, not just from zero. When children skip count by three from a number like 104, they learn to add three again and again in their heads, and they practice keeping the count going smoothly when a pattern crosses a new hundred. Skip counting by threes builds number sense and gets kids ready for the times table of three.
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 three, using the given numbers as clues. Two of the lines cross a hundred, from 397 to 400 and from 697 to 700. In Part B, students solve three story problems about cans, bags, and boxes that each hold three things. They write their skip count on the line and put the total in the answer box. Use the skip count by three 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 three, each with five missing numbers
- Three story problems solved by skip counting groups of three
- A skip count line and an answer box for every story problem
- Watercolor pictures of a tennis ball can, a bakery bag, and a marker box
- A complete answer key
Why It Helps Kids
First, counting by three from numbers that are not multiples of three 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 threes out loud from a number like 25 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 any pattern they notice. Kids can also write their own story problem about packs of three and trade it with a friend.
