Nursery Maths Assessment
This maths assessment allows you to assess your nursery children’s progress more formally. The assessments can either be done using practical adult lead activities or through observation and recorded in the booklet. Each question links to the new Development Matters document 2021 and will give you a good indication of which areas your children need to do more work on. The booklet assesses children’s ability to subitise, recognise numbers, use positional language, count etc.
They need to be accompanied with the free practical maths resources.

Comparing Numbers
This Comparing Numbers pack consists of 4 different activities and 12 pages to support children in comparing quantities and introduce them to the vocabulary of more and fewer. The activities are as follows:
Add more/fewer peas to the plate. You could be really specific and add one more, two more, or one fewer etc.
Each player has a row of houses. Roll a die and deliver parcels or letters as you move along the row (use cubes as parcels or pieces of card for the letters). Don’t forget to talk about who has delivered more or fewer. The winner is the first one to deliver a parcel or letter to every house.
Sort the buttons into two jars according to whether there are more or fewer.
Order the picture cards from fewer to more

Counting and Number Recognition Pack
This pack consists of a game to support counting and number recognition with the use of a vertical number line. There are two types of game boards both of which have two ability levels. There is a tower and a train track game board, one of which goes up to number 8 and one which goes up to number 18. Each player has a board and either a princess card or a train card depending on which game is being played. At the simplest level children take it in turns to roll a die and move that number of steps. The first one to reach the top of the tower or the end of the train track is the winner and win a prince card or train ticket respectively.
Alternatively, for those children who are a little bit more advanced with their understanding of number, they can play the game using the instruction cards. Children take it in turns to select an instruction card from the top of the pile. They follow the instructions according to what the card says e.g. ‘go to number 4’, ‘2 more’, ‘1 less’, etc. Again, the first one to get to the end of the number line is the winner.
For those children that are ready, there are more and less worksheets for them to complete with a vertical number line down the side of the page to support in finding the answers.
There are also vertical number lines that can be cut out and laminated and used to support with other number activities.
Also in the pack, there are numbered clothes that can be cut out and laminated and used for ordering on a washing line. The clothes can either be ordered or the children could find missing numbers on the washing line that is partly made.

Digraph Activity Pack - 'sh', 'ch', 'th', 'qu', 'ng', 'nk'
The digraph activity pack consists of 8 pages of worksheets for the following digraphs - ‘sh’, ‘ch’, ‘th’, ‘qu’, ‘ng’ and ‘nk’. On each of the worksheets children need to use 3 different colours to practise the letter formation in the large letters. There is a set of smaller digraphs for children to practise the letter formation. Children need to look at the pictures as some have the focus sound of the sheet in them and some of them don’t. Once children identify the pictures that have the sound in them they need to join them to the digraph in the middle of the page. Finally, they need to circle the digraph in the word.
The final two sheets have a number of pictures with different digraphs in them. Children need to decide which digraph they can hear when they say the name of the picture and circle it from a choice of three.

Five and Ten Frame Counting
The Ten Frame Printables pack consists of 10 pages of worksheets which support early counting skills in a fun and imaginative way. There are 2 five frame and ten frame worksheets where children need to identify the number of spots.

This way, the children can concentrate on their number recognition and subitising skills without the need to form numbers. There are ten frames where children have to draw the correct number of spots and robots where children need to match dot patterns to the correct number. Each worksheet will help to reinforce children’s understanding of number.
