Fill the Gaps

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a straightforward numerical activity designed to test and reinforce a student’s ability to skip count by threes. It features several rows with three boxes in each row, some containing numbers and others left blank. The numbers shown follow a pattern of increasing by three, and students are expected to fill in the missing numbers to complete the sequence. A section at the bottom with smiley faces allows students to self-assess how they did with the activity.

The worksheet is teaching students how to count by threes, an essential early math skill that forms the basis for understanding multiplication and arithmetic patterns. By actively filling in the missing numbers, students practice number sequencing and enhance their mental calculation abilities. The worksheet also serves as a form of assessment to gauge a student’s proficiency with skip counting. Moreover, the self-evaluation section encourages children to reflect on their own understanding and progress.
