Addition and Subtraction KS1 Maths Activities

Fun Key Stage 1 Maths add and subtract cards, ideal for independent work in Year 1 and Year 2 (Y1 / Y2). This free sample includes 16 printable write and wipe trail cards for early finishers, lesson starters, warm ups and revision, which will also suit some Year 3 (Y3) and older KS2 students requiring consolidation, including those with ASN / SEN.

• Regular practice using these resources will help to build speed and accuracy and they are an engaging change from standard worksheets.
• Laminate them for children to complete with dry-wipe pens or use in dry-erase sleeves if you wish to save on laminating.
• Alternatively, leave them uncovered and use as worksheets with a difference.
• These are great to have to hand throughout the year to use as last-minute meaningful ‘fillers’.
• They can even be turned into a competitive game if required, with pupils racing each other to complete.

 
4 cards have been taken from each of the following 4 full packs:

• Adding and subtracting within 20
• Adding and subtracting within 50
• Adding and subtracting 9, 10 and 11
• Adding and subtracting multiples of 10

 
The full packs from which these cards have been taken each contain 36 cards and answer versions of all cards. All four full sets (144 cards) are available in a great value bundle here:

Addition and Subtraction KS1 Maths Card BUNDLE

 
Or, if you would like just the first two packs, a smaller bundle is also available:

Addition and Subtractions within 20 and 50 KS1 Cards.

Starting at the top illustration and working their way around the card in a spiral, children write the answer to each calculation in the box, creating a running total as they go. The final answer is printed at the end of the trail, beside the illustration in the middle of the card, so they can see if they have correctly completed it. If not, children can check their work to see where they have gone wrong.

Thank you for your interest in my resources. I hope they work well in your classroom.
