💡 How to Use This Worksheet

This worksheet is designed to reinforce Year 3 students' understanding of counting in multiples of 4, 8, 50, and 100. It can be used as a classroom activity, homework assignment, or as part of a revision session. Before starting, ensure students have a solid understanding of place value and can confidently count in 2s, 5s, and 10s. For students who are struggling, provide concrete manipulatives like counters or number lines to help them visualise the counting patterns. Encourage them to verbalise the counting sequence as they work through the questions. For more advanced learners, challenge them to create their own number sequences counting in 4s, 8s, 50s, or 100s, starting from different numbers. A common mistake to watch out for is students losing track of the counting pattern, especially when crossing hundreds boundaries (e.g., counting in 50s from 280). Encourage them to break down the counting into smaller steps if needed. As an extension activity, you could ask students to investigate the relationship between counting in 4s and 8s, or to explore how counting in 50s and 100s relates to money.
