A simple interactive maths game, designed in Powerpoint to support the development of children’s subitizing skills - the ability to instantly recognise number amounts from 1 to 5 (without counting). Children are presented with different arrangements of pancakes from 1 to 5. Children identify the number of pancakes shown and click the matching number card. This is an ideal activity to develop subitizing skills. An ideal activity for whole class teaching with the theme of pancakes. As a follow up activity children can make their own play-dough pancakes and arrange their pancakes in different ways using the play-dough boards. This also works well as a small group follow up activity - For example, by asking the children “Can you make me (x amount) of pancakes with the play-dough?” “Show me (x amount) of pancakes.” Ideal for assessing ELGs in a fun way.
A simple interactive counting game, designed in Powerpoint. This game is ideally shared on the interactive whiteboard to model counting skills and the game played as a whole class. Children are asked to count the number of chocolate hearts in the tens frame (chocolate box) and click the matching number on the number line. The children are then asked how many chocolates are missing from the boxes / tens frame. All tens frames 1-10 hearts are included in the game. As a follow up activity children can make the missing hearts from playdough to fill the chocolate boxes to support their knowledge of number bonds.

A simple interactive maths game, designed in Powerpoint to support children’s early counting skills from 1 to 10. Works well as a whole class modelling activity on the interactive whiteboard with the children working on small whiteboards, practicing their counting and number formation skills. Children are asked to count the monkeys they can see and find and click the correct number on the number line. If required more challenge can be simply added by asking children to count how many eyes the monkeys have altogether and start counting in 2s.
This simple interactive game, designed in Powerpoint will help support the development of children’s early counting skills from 1 to 10. Children are invited to count the number of fish under the sea on each slide. This activity works well as a whole class teaching tool and can be modelled on the interactive whiteboard. Children can practise drawing the fish and writing the matching number on their individual small whiteboards. A confident child can be asked to click the matching number on the number line. Children requiring additional challenge can be asked to calculate what would be one more / one less than the amount shown. A small sample of slides is shared in the preview.
A simple interactive maths game, designed in Powerpoint to support number recognition and cardinality to 20. Ideal for modelling counting skills on the interactive whiteboard as part of whole class teaching, using a ten frame for number up to 20. Links well with WhiteRose Maths planning for Building 9 and 10 and 20 and Beyond. Children count the number of racing cars at the Grand Prix presented in the ten-frames. Amounts from 1 to 20 are displayed. Children identify and click on the matching number card to show how many cars are displayed in the ten-frame. Easily editable to suit your needs.

A simple maths game, designed in Powerpoint that is ideal for sharing via the interactive whiteboard as a whole class maths starter. Children are presented with a ten-frame showing different amounts of farm animals from 1 to 10 and have to click the matching numeral on the number line.
Later on, this progresses to asking the children how many more animals would be needed to make 10. This activity reinforces children’s knowledge of number bonds using the ten-frames.
This Powerpoint includes ten-frames showing various farm animals from 1 to 10 and is easily editable. The ten-frames can be printed out and laminated as an independent follow up activity that can be used in a variety of different ways.
A simple interactive maths game, designed in Powerpoint to support the development of subitizing skills in EYFS. Ideal for sharing on the interactive whiteboard as part of whole class teaching and learning. Great as a mental warm up / starter activity. Children are presented with 1 to 5 hearts in a variety of different arrangements. Children are encouraged to subitize (instantly say the number of hearts without counting) and click on the matching number. Fifteen different arrangments are shared in the slides. At the end of the slides 12 smaller flash cards showing different arrangements for 5 are shown to explore different ways of arranging the hearts. This leads to an exploratory activity during independent learning where children can investigate all the different ways of arranging 5 chocolate hearts in a box with nine spaces.
