• Missing numbers in each row: 5

You can change any of these settings above. Press "New problems" for a fresh set with the same settings, or pick Version A to Z to print different sheets for neighboring desks. The answer key always matches.

About skip counting worksheets

Each row is a run of numbers that goes up or down by the same amount, with some boxes left empty. A small tag at the start of the row shows the step (+5 or −5). Choose the step, the length of each row, how many numbers are missing and how high the numbers may go.

Counting backwards from a multiple of 5 or 10 is one of the best early checks of place value. Every sheet has a solved example and an answer key, and there is a large-print version.
