About Year 1 Count in 2s, 5s and 10s Worksheets
Can your child count in 2s, 5s, AND 10s? These free Year 1 worksheets bring all three skip-counting patterns together. If your child has been practising counting in 2s and 5s, adding 10s and mixing all three is the perfect challenge to round off their counting skills.
This week's five worksheets combine counting in 2s, 5s, and 10s. Your child will practise all three patterns, learn to recognise which pattern a sequence follows, and solve problems that require switching between different counting steps. Counting in 10s is also introduced here — and most children find it the easiest of the three!
What's Inside Each Day
1
Day 1
Counting in 10s — your child counts in steps of 10 to 100, discovering how quick and satisfying it is!
2
Day 2
Counting in 10s on a number line — children jump along a number line in 10s, and fill in missing numbers.

Day 3
Mixed 2s and 5s — your child practises both patterns side by side, learning to spot the difference.
4
Day 4
Mixed 2s, 5s, and 10s — all three patterns appear together, and your child identifies which rule each sequence follows.
5
Day 5

Top Tip for Parents
Turn skip counting into a family game! Each person picks a rule (2s, 5s, or 10s) and everyone counts together. See who can get to 100 first! This playful competition helps all three patterns become automatic.
