Counting in steps

Let's count in jumps instead of in ones.

Let’s get the idea.

Here’s how it works

Add the same step each time. A number line can help.

What we’re exploring

counting in jumps of 4, 8, 50 and 100
spotting the size of the jump in a pattern
carrying a pattern on forwards and backwards

Check your rule against more than one jump.

LET’S WORK ONE OUT TOGETHER

A little example

Continue 15, 20, 25, …

1
20 − 15 = 5, so the jump is +5.
2
25 + 5 = 30.
3
30 + 5 = 35: the next numbers are 30 and 35.

Make a little room for your workings.

NOW IT’S YOUR TURN

Have a little go.

Four questions. Plenty of thinking space.
Use paper, then add photos of your workings.

Your pace. Your way. ↘

When should we tell you if your answers are right?

After each answerShow me if I’m right or wrong as soon as I submit.After I finish all questionsKeep my results hidden until I finish all 4 questions.

You can’t change an answer or its photos after you submit it. You also can’t change when you see your results once you start.
