0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30

Key Teaching Points:

• These are called even numbers

• Notice the pattern: each number is 2 more than the last

• When we skip count by 2s, we land on every second number

• This helps us learn about groups and multiplication later

Helpful Rhyme:

"2, 4, 6, 8 - counting by 2s is really great!
10, 12, 14, 16 - the best pattern you've ever seen!
18, 20, and we're not done - skip counting by 2s is so much fun!"
