The Triangles are skip counting in 5's

When we skip count in 5's we count in 5's. We don't count every number. We do count like this - 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45,50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100
We start with 5. Then 10. Then 15. Then 20. In the photo we are using an abacus. But we use a 100's board to help us. We could also use our hands if we had enough!
We could also skip count in 2's and 10's! We would like to learn how to skip count in 10's next!
