Select a student to start counting from one. It is important that all the students countaloud. For example, for counting in fives: \u201c1, 2, 3, 4, beep, 6, 7, 8, 9, beep, 11 &#8230;\u201d When a student says \u201cbeep\u201d, they sit down. The game continues until only one student is left standing. Thisactivity can be used to reinforce the forwards and backwards counting sequences. Use a hundreds board to assist the students to visualise the patterns. Highlight the \u201cbeep\u201d numbers.\u00a0 You could use this interactive hundreds chart if you would like:\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.abcya.com\/interactive_100_number_chart.htm\" target=\"_blank\">CLICK HERE<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>Extension Activity<\/h4>\n<p><em>Have two multiples going at the same time. For example, threes (say \u201cbeep\u201d) and fives (say\u201cbuzz\u201d). If the number is a multiple of both three and five, then the person says \u201cbuzz-beep\u201d. So the sequence goes \u201c1, 2, beep, 4, buzz, beep, 7, 8, &#8230; 11, beep, 13, 14, buzz-beep &#8230; \u201cBegin the counting sequences at different starting numbers. For example, \u201c3, 7, 11 &#8230;\u201d or \u201c100, 97,94, 91 &#8230;\u201d These patterns will help the students to recognize algebraic relationships.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>Extension Activity<\/h4>\n<p><em>Repeat \u201cBeep\u201d for multiples of three, four, and six. Develop increasingly complex sequences by using counts like hundreds, twenties and fifties, in fractions (on multiples of four quarters), like,one-quarter, two-quarters, three-quarters, beep, five-quarters &#8230;, in decimals (on multiples of 0.25), like 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, beep<\/em> &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watch the following video on what skip counting entails: #1.)\u00a0 Now, practice skip counting using the website activities HERE OR #2.)\u00a0 Practice counting sets of objects (like many pieces of candy or pieces of pasta or pennies or&#8230;.whatever!!!!!) in 2&#8217;s, 3&#8217;s, 4&#8217;s, 5&#8217;s and so forth.
