  • What do you think makes counting from 100 to 120 similar to counting from 0 to 20? Can you find any patterns?
  • Can you think of a time when you used counting in your daily life? How did it help you?
  • If you could make up your own counting game, what would it be like? How would you make it fun for your friends?
  1. Number Hunt: Go on a number hunt around your home or classroom. Look for numbers between 100 and 120 on clocks, books, or even in the kitchen. Write down the numbers you find and practice counting them out loud. Can you find all the numbers from 100 to 120?

  2. Build a Number Line: Use string and clothespins or tape to create a number line from 100 to 120. Write each number on a small piece of paper and hang them in order. Once your number line is complete, practice counting forward and backward. Can you skip count by twos or fives using your number line?

  3. Pattern Detective: With a friend or family member, take turns saying a number between 100 and 120. The other person has to say the next number in the sequence. Notice the pattern as you count. What happens when you reach 110? Can you explain why counting from 100 to 120 is similar to counting from 0 to 20?

Welcome to Kids Academy!

When we count from 100 to 120, we can follow the same pattern we used when counting from 0 to 20. You can even start counting at any number, as long as you remember the pattern from 0 to 20.

Let’s count from 7 to 20:
7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20.

Now let’s try counting from 107 to 120. We can use the same pattern we just used to count from 7 to 20:
107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, and 120.

Can you see the relationship between counting from 0 to 20 and counting from 100 to 120? It’s quite similar; they follow the same exact pattern. This can help us count up starting at any number.

Let’s try it again! Let’s count from 109 to 120. We can follow the same pattern from when we count from 9 to 20. First, let’s count from 9 to 20 to figure out the pattern, then we’ll use that pattern to count from 109 to 120.

Let’s get started:
9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20.

Now let’s try 109 to 120:
109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, and 120.

Great work! Now it’s your turn. I’ll leave you with a challenge: I want you to count from 104 to 120. You can use the pattern of counting from 4 to 20 to help. I’ll give you some time to think, but if you need more time, you can pause the video and answer when you are ready.

Okay, here’s the answer! Let’s count from 104 to 120. We can follow the same pattern from when we count from 4 to 20. First, let’s count from 4 to 20 to find out the pattern, then we’ll use that pattern to count from 104 to 120.

Let’s get started:
4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20.

Now counting from 104 to 120:
104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, and 120.

Remember, you can use patterns to help you count starting at any number.
