This math topic focuses on practicing skip counting downward by single digits, specifically by 2 and 3. It allows students to identify the next number in a descending sequence, reinforcing their understanding of subtraction patterns and enhancing their number sense. Each problem presents a partial sequence, and students must determine the following number in the pattern, choosing the correct answer from multiple choices. This enhances arithmetic proficiency and pattern recognition skills, important foundations in number sense development.
