Halloween ADDITION to 10, 12, 20 & 100 - 4 Fun Maths Games for KS1

Are you looking for Halloween addition maths games for years 1 & 2 to practice addition to 10, 12, 20 and addition to 100? Students will love these Roll and add fun Halloween maths games for kids to calculate simple addition sums or addition 2-digit numbers with a tricky 7, 8 and 9 using their key maths skills.

Students will be eager to play and work out the answers using these resources and see who can solve the most addition problems, circle the most monsters with their colours and claim these to be theirs. Challenging the partner on whether they are adding up correctly will keep them engaged and wanting to play these games more than once.

To make this easier for those students who need manipulatives, provide counters or other maths resources you have for counting e.g. Numicon, 10 frames, number lines etc. for working out and checking answers. This gives a great connection between concrete maths i.e. handling objects and the more abstract maths of using numerals and written sums.

Setting up is quick and instructions are easy to follow and come with the games. Use them in adult-led activities where you can assess their speed of recall and accuracy of working out as they play - evaluate how quick they are at calculating for example 4 + 6 or 32 + 9.

The maths games can also be used as independent activities if you are teaching addition as part of a lesson, or as an activity for those students who need more practice with adding numbers. With the addition to 10 games, they can work out the answers using their fingers, which will lead them to become more confident and quicker resulting in better recall for future maths addition problem-solving.

Differentiation is easy - use the easier addition games up to 10 for students who need simpler additions to solve and support this with manipulatives or challenge them to add to 100.
