How to help

Add 2 each time: 46, 48, 50. From an odd number the numbers stay odd. By 25s the ones and tens go 25, 50, 75, 00.

Watch for: Jumping from an odd start to even numbers. Counting by 25s as 25, 50, 75, 125. Counting back by tens from 703 as 693, 683, then 673… and losing the 3.

At home: Count socks by 2s on laundry day, and quarters by 25s from a coin jar.
