Skip Counting – Grade 1 and Grade 2 Exit Tickets

Are you looking for a quick and easy way to assess your students’ ability to recognise, describe and create additive patterns that increase by 10, 10 and 100? Teach Starter has created a set of exit tickets that cover the following skip-counting skills:

• Determining the skip counting “rule” – that the pattern is increasing by (x) value. 
• Identifying the missing number in the sequence
• Counting by a chosen constant amount, up to three-digit numbers (under 1000)

This set of 24 exit tickets can be used with your students during your maths strategies lessons. Students will answer a variety of problems to demonstrate an understanding of skip counting.

An answer key is included with your download to make marking fast and easy! 

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

Use this set of exit tickets during:

• Guided maths groups
• Lesson warm-up
• Lesson wrap-up

If there are students looking for a challenge, have them create their own questions on the reverse side of their card and swap with a classmate.

For students who need additional support, provide visual cues like skip counting charts or a hundred board, and first focus on two-digit numbers only.
