LEARNING TO SKIP COUNT

SKIP COUNTING(PSRN)

Earlier we discussed about many topics in CLL( Communication Language Literacy) like CVC, Sight Words, Rhyming Words. So I thought it would be good if we discuss PSRN (Problem Solving, Reasoning, and Numeracy).

Today I will talk about, how to introduce skip counting in our class. 

Skip counting is one of the simplest math skills that your child will need to understand before learning how to multiply. 

It makes the foundation strong and helps them understand how multiplication works and breaks in simpler forms.

Skip counting helps not only in multiplication but also in addition and patterns.

By adding a number to itself again and again, the child memorizes the counting pattern.

They will be closer to understanding what you mean when you start showing simple multiplication problems and in later grades, when students are asked to memorize the multiplication tables.

To make the lesson and introduction more interesting we can use Craft Activities . Children get inquisitive and more interested when they see colourful innovative Activities.
