Number Bonds to 10

-
The worksheets in this post help your child with their number bonds to 10, there are two worksheets which your child can use to practice their number bonds. This is part of the KS1 curriculum particularly children in year 2 so you can use these at home to facilitate with learning that is going on at school to either help the child catch up if they are falling behind or if they are finding school easy then this can be used to challenge them on concepts they have yet to learn.

These worksheets help them to understand the relationship between the numbers which is essential when it comes to dealing with complex problems that involve larger numbers but the knowledge they gain through this activity will support them with solving those harder problems later on.

Worksheet #1: 

This sheet covers all the number bond sums that add to 10, it also helps your child clearly see that 4+6 for example is the same as 6+4 so it shows them that it does not matter how the sum is ordered in an addition sum the answer will be the same. This worksheet also shows kids all the combinations in which we can make 10 with whole integers.

An interesting activity might be to cut each number sentence out and get the child to spot which ones are similar and see if they can identify the pairs that go together. This might be a good activity once they have written the answer on the sheet and a couple of days go by because this can help to refresh understanding as well as present a new challenge. 


Worksheet #2: 

This worksheet enforces the idea that the order of the numbers in an addition sum do not matter as they give the same answer. This printable worksheet helps to understand a range of relationships between the single digit numbers 1-10. 

A great idea might be to discuss with the kid why the number order does not matter by asking this question it will help you to identify whether the child has understood what is going on or needs some extra support. Asking questions on understanding can really help to check what the child knows and how strongly they are grasping what they are learning. So, make sure to have conversations that allow the child to explain concepts and process of what is going on. 

Both of these sheets are in A4 format so you can just click on them and print or you can copy them to word and reformat before printing. To be economical and environmentally friendly it would be best to print the sheets on both sides instead of on two separate sheets of paper.

Single Digit Maths Colouring Sheets For KS1

The sheets below are activities that kids in KS1 particularly in Year 1 can do to help practice mathematical content that they learn at school. These activities are simple and can be done quickly at home or in school to check understanding and to re-visit topics to strengthen understanding and techniques. 1: Colour in the right answer (single-digit addition and subtraction).  Simple sheets are a perfect way to do quick understanding check and practice what has been previously learnt. I think this is super fun because you can do so many different things: colour, stickers, glitter, paint and more to make this as interesting as you can for the child so they enjoy it.  As it is so simple and clear it makes sure that the child is focused on the key thing instead of too much going on which they can get distracted and overwhelmed by. Hopefully, this is useful and valuable for the child.  2: Colour in the number that comes next.  This activity helps kids better understand the order of numbers

Connective Worksheet

 When kids enter KS1 especially Year 2 they start to learn about connectives and how to use them in their sentences to make them more interesting. The connective worksheet is a great way for kids who have been introduced to connectives and understand what they are to get a practice at using them and check their understanding. The sentences are quite simple so that it just checks whether kids understand which connective is appropriate to use and also to show they understand what each connective means and how it fits into the sentence. A good idea might be to have the child explain why they used that particular connective instead of the other ones and this will to identify whether the child has a strong understanding of connectives and if they require further support and practice.  Just like all of my worksheets I have aimed to make this one as simple and clear as possible because, as I have stated in a previous blog post, I want the kids to be engaged for the entire time they are doing

Teach your little one how to write their letter A with these easy and quick worksheets. The first worksheet is all about helping them to learn the shape and get familiar with the way it looks and how to trace it.  With both of the sheets as they're nice and plain you can definitely add your own touch and make it fun for the child by for example getting them to either colour or use different writing tools such as markers for example. You can also have a reward system where if they do the first row really slowly and try and get it as accurate as they can then they get a reward.  So, making it fun however you do is going to make learning for you child so much more fun and enjoyable that they would want to do more.
