This hundreds chart shades every multiple of 5, which turns skip counting into a picture: two neat columns, the 5s and the 10s. Change Shade skip counting to see other patterns. The 2s make stripes, the 3s and 9s make diagonals, the 4s and 6s make slanted stripes, and the 11s run down a diagonal.

Skip counting is the bridge to multiplication. A child who can count by 4s to 40 can find any 4s fact. Print one chart for each number your child is learning, have them read the shaded numbers aloud, then try saying the count with the chart turned over.

Tips for using it

Print the 3s and 6s charts and compare: every shaded 6 is also a shaded 3.
Have your child color the pattern themselves on a blank chart, then check against this one.
