Common mistakes
What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.
Says the starting number as the first count when counting on.
Correction: Point to the start number, then say the NEXT number as 'one'.
Loses the pattern when crossing a ten (e.g. 28, 29, 20).
Correction: Use a 100 square so the child sees the row change.
Teacher tips
- · Use a 100 square and colour each skip-count pattern in a different colour.
Parent tips
- · Count stairs in 2s or cars in 5s on a walk.
Real-life applications
- · Counting coins in 5s and 10s, counting pairs of socks in 2s.
