What your child practises

Skills: Number bonds to 10.

Understanding how numbers are built and how they relate to each other – the base for confident mental maths.

What’s included

• 6 problems
• An answer key you can print with the sheet or on its own
• An on-screen version with instant marking and stars

Age and school year

Made for ages 4–8. That’s Pre-K – Grade 3 in the US, Reception – Year 4 in England, Nursery 1 – Primary 3 in Nigeria and LKG – Class 3 in India.

How to use it

• Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.
• Print the answer key too, so marking takes seconds.
• Play it on screen: answers are marked instantly and children earn stars.
• Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.

Tips for parents and teachers

1. 1Count real things first – spoons, socks, toy cars – then move to the pictures, so numbers stay meaningful.
2. 2Ask “How do you know?” about one answer. Explaining a method builds understanding faster than speed.
3. 3Pick a regular time – after a snack, say – so practice becomes a habit rather than a battle.
