42, 44, 46, 48 50

3. Can you find the missing numbers in these patterns?

8. What is the missing number now?
15, 20, 25, 30, ___, 40,
45, ___, 55, 60, 65

9. The answers were 35 and 50!
Now can you skip count by 10? 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120!

10. Skip counting by ten is easy
Skip counting by ten is easy! Let’s see if you can find the missing numbers!

11. The answer was 40 and 70.
Now let’s try something really challenging!

12. Skip Counting by 3
3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30

13. Wow! That was harder!
Skip count by 3s to find the missing numbers.
3, 6, 9, ___, 15, 18

14. The answer is 12!!
Now here is a pattern that is not the same.
5, 8, 11, ___, 17, 20, 23
Do you notice something funny about these numbers?

15. Look closely...
5, 8, 11, ___, 17, 20, 23
The difference between 5 and 8 is three. The difference between 8 and 11 is three. The difference between 17 and 20 is three. The difference between 20 and 23 is three.
Maybe the numbers are going up by three each time. Try adding threes. Can you find the missing number now?

16. The answer is 14!
Can you write a number pattern? It’s fun!
The End.
