Module 5: Skip Counting-Math 2A - Course Guide


Module Overview:

In this module, students will skip count to 100 by 5s, find the missing number(s) in a skip-counting sequence, use place value, a hundred chart to find skip-counting patterns to 100, count by 10s using place-value patterns or a hundred chart, and use base-ten blocks to skip count by 10. They will use a thousands chart to find skip-counting patterns, count by 100s to 1,000 using place-value patterns, identify the skip-counting patterns for the 1s, 10s, and 100s number sequences, and skip count from any number using a hundreds or thousands chart. Finally, they will use models, words and expanded formats to describe numbers, and break apart numbers into base-ten notation.

Learning Coach Notes:

Lesson # Lesson Title Notes
1 Counting by 5s to 100 Ask your student to explain the following to you: what equal groups mean, what skip-counting is, what a number sequence is, and what place value means. In their Math notebook, write a few double-digit numbers down and have them identify the place value of each number (Which number is in the ten's place? Which number is in the one's place?)
2 Counting by 10s to 100 Ask your student to count to 100 by 10s.
3 Count by 100s to 1000
  • Have your student skip count from 100 to 1000 by 100s.
  • In their Math Notebook, write down 3 digit and 4 digit numbers ask your student to identify the place value of each number you write down (Which number is in the hundreds place? Which number is in the tens place? Which number is in the ones place? Which number is in the thousands place?)
4 Counting by 100s, 10s, and 1s Ask your student to practice skip counting by 1s, 10s, and 100s to 1,000.
5 Numbers in Base-Ten Notation
  • The Writing Numbers in Base Ten Notation worksheet is a cut-out worksheet. If your student has a workbook, this page will be found in the cut-outs section noted in the Workbook Table of Contents.
  • Ask your student to describe what base-ten notation is in their Math notebook.

Module Guiding Questions:

When a student starts a lesson ask them questions to check for prior knowledge and understanding and to review concepts being taught. At the end of the lesson ask the questions again to see if their answer changes.

Module Video Questions:

When a student watches a video take time to ask them questions about what they watched. Suggested questions for the videos in this module are listed here. Suggestion: Have the student watch the entire video first all the way through. Then have them watch the video a second time, as they watch it pause the video and ask the questions.

Lesson Title Video Question
Counting by 5s to 100 Skip Counting by 5's to One Hundred
  1. Can you skip out by 5's to 100?

  1. Can you count by 10s to 100?
Count by 100s to 1000 Skip Counting by 100s to 1000
  1. Can you skip count by 100s to a thousand?

Module Suggested Read Aloud Books:

Take time to read to your student or have them read aloud to you. Read a different book each day. While reading the book point out concepts being taught. You may purchase these books or find them at your local library. Suggested things to discuss while reading the book:

  • What is the main idea?
  • What are three things new you learned?
  • How does this book relate to what you are learning about?
