Montessori Skip Counting by 5s Printable Activity Pack

Help children see, build, and understand skip counting by 5s with this Montessori-inspired printable activity pack.

Skip counting can easily become something children chant without really understanding. This resource gives children a hands-on way to see each group of five, order the numbers, match quantities to numerals, and practise the pattern from 5 to 100 using visual supports.

This pack is ideal for Montessori classrooms, homeschool learning, maths shelves, morning work, small group lessons, or independent follow-up after a lesson with bead bars.

Children begin by working with number cards and bead bar visuals, then move into matching “groups of 5” cards, train sequencing activities, missing-number worksheets, puzzles, and clip-card style practice. The activities are simple to prepare and can be used again and again. The resource includes cards showing 5 through 100, group language such as “3 groups of 5,” skip counting trains, and follow-up worksheets for extra practice.
