What’s included? This download includes x8 sheets - x7 in landscape orientation and x1 in portrait orientation to practise counting out tens and ones to match numerals up to 69. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? Learners count out tens and ones (by cutting out tens/ones images) to match numerals from 2 up to 69. Resource layout Learners write their name at the base of each sheet. Each learner should also be given one tens/ones sheet to cut out what they need. The more sheets learners complete the more tens/ones they will need so spares of this sheet will be need to be available - close to hand. Learners look at the numeral in each box and count out (cut) the correct number of ones and tens to position (stick) in the box. Each sheet is numbered (1 - 7) the more sheets learners complete the larger the numerals on each sheet become. Target numbers you choose Page 2 has blank boxes for an adult to write numerals they would like to target for learners to practise. The size of the boxes on page 2 are quite small and suitable for ‘ones’ numbers (smaller than 10) - a ‘ten stick’ may fit here if placed horizontally but only with up to x7 ones. The numbers on sheet 7 could be covered up if adults wish learners to target specific numbers with tens and ones as there is more space in these boxes. I think x7 ten sticks is the limit for the two boxes on page 7 size-wise. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes. Feedback would be wonderful! Thank you!

What’s included? This download includes x1 sheet in portrait orientation to practise counting and matching tens and ones/units images with numeral labels for numbers up to 32. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. This resource has been designed give learners the opportunity to count tens and ones images (to 30) and match these with the correct numeral label by cutting and sticking (ten numbers) and writing the numerals for two - the last images on the left/right. Resource layout Learners write their name at the side (right), then cut out ten numeral labels at the base of the sheet (following along dotted lines) and label the images correctly - according to how many tens/ones are featured. The last two labels need to be written - a pencil indicates which two boxes to write in. Pale grey boxes indicate where to ‘stick’ the numeral label answers.

What’s included? This download includes one A4, landscape pdf sheet to practise ‘counting in 5’s’ from 0 to 50 (and back) using rainbow coloured circle shaped ‘beads’. Dotted guide line showing where to cut and punch a hole are included. The hole to punch is 5mm in size though a smaller hole punch could be used (to increase the fine motor skills challenge!) Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details The layout includes x6 rows and x9 columns of circular shaped beads each with a 5’s number from 0 - 50 (and back again). Beads are arranged in rainbow order to help guide and motivate learners in finding the next number (and colour) in the pattern. This is an ideal activity to keep learners busy and independent.

What’s included? This download includes x7 sheets in portrait orientation to better understand what tens and ones/units are - looking at numbers from 1 to 99. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. This resource has been designed to be shared with learners at a slower pace where what tens and ones/units are does not yet make sense to them. This resource could be used as a whole class introduction to tens and ones/units - displayed on a whiteboard and completed with the help of learners. This resource could also be used as part of online teaching and learning about tens and ones/units. Resource layout Page 1. Introduces learners to ‘ones’ and how ten ones can be positioned on a row or column to become a ‘ten’. Why we do this is made clear. Learners are introduced to the vocabulary ‘ones’, ‘ten/ten stick/tens stick/tens/tens sticks’, ’row’, ‘column’, ‘vertical’ and 'horizontal’. Page 2. Looks at why when ten ones become a stick of ten and how it is helpful to use a different colour for tens and ones. Page 2 also looks at images of ‘tens sticks’ and ‘ones’ and how these are counted and written as numbers. Page 3. Identifies how a large group of ‘ones’ can become confusing and tricky to count. Page 3 models how to count these ones - counting ten at a time and how these ‘groups of ten’ become ‘tens’ while the remaining ‘ones’ stay as ‘ones’. How this is written as a number is also clearly shown. Learners are introduced to the vocabulary ‘swapping/exchanging’, ‘left over’ and ‘group’. Page 4. Shows learners how they can draw their own ‘stick of ten’ and ‘ones’ and provides an opportunity for learners to practise grouping ten 'ones’ as ‘tens’ and writing this as a number. Page 5. Looks at what each digit in a number represents, e.g. in the number ’36’ the ‘3’ is the number of tens and the ‘6’ is for the ‘ones’. This is also modelled visually and learners are given the opportunity to practise writing the numbers ’27’ and ’45’ as ‘tens’ and ‘ones’ as well as drawing these numbers as ‘tens sticks’ and ‘ones’ squares. Page 6. Looks at numbers with no ‘tens’ (numbers 1 to 9). Learners are given the opportunity to count and write two numbers without a ‘ten’ - 8 and 5. Numbers 10 to 19 are identified as only having one ten and learners have the opportunity to count and write the numbers where 14 and 17 are represented visually. Page 7. Looks at numbers with ‘more than one ten’ in them - from 20 to 99. ‘Hundreds’ are not mentioned in this resource. Page numbers are clearly displayed on the lower right side of each sheet.

What’s included? This pdf download includes x4 pages designed in landscape orientation featuring ten pairs of hands (each showing x10 fingers!) to practise counting up to 100 in 10’s. This resource has been designed in black and white for easy, clear printing. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in Y1 and Y2 as well as students needing additional learning support. This resource may be suitable for some pupils in Reception. Resource layout The simple lay out of pairs of hands, clearly showing ten fingers in each (blank) box is an easy to use (and re-use!) resource. Numbers can be written straight onto the sheet (and wiped off if laminated). Size 40 ‘Sassoon Infant Std’ font makes the numbers easy to read and the simple layout makes the process of counting in 10’s visually clear to young learners. Page 1 The first page has x10 boxes of ten sets of fingers with a large blank space under each image where the learner can write the correct 10’s number. This blank version can also be printed and the adult can write some of the 10’s numbers in, leaving gaps for the learner to write to remaining 10’s numbers in the complete the boxes. If given to a learner as it is (without any numbers written on) this page is the ‘most challenging’ sheet in this set. Page 2 The second page is the same design (x10 boxes of ten sets of fingers with a large blank space under each image where the learner can write the correct 10’s number). On this page the numbers ’10’, ’40’ and ‘100’ are included, leaving x7 number gaps for the learner to complete. With three completed numbers to help this is the ‘least challenging’ sheet in this set.

What’s included? This download includes x2 landscape orientation pdfs to investigate odd and even numbers up to 100. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource layout Page 1 features a hundred number square and simple instructions for learners to circle or colour each number (red for odd numbers and green for even numbers) depending on whether the numbers are odd or even. Learners will need to be familiar with what ‘odd’ and ‘even’ means and if they don’t already know which of these numbers are odd or even they will need to know how to work this out. After completing the 100 number square there is a question (in the blue cloud shape on the left) asking learners ‘What do you notice?’ - this is to encourage learners to identify that once the numbers have been coloured there is a red/green repeating colour pattern. There is a space on the left for learners to record their own answer to this in the blue box provided or learners could articulate their observations to an adult who could write this for them as needed. There is a clear space for learners to write their name at the base of page 1 (on the left) as well as recording the number date at the top (on the right). Page 2 features two large boxes - red for odd numbers (on the left) and green for even numbers (on the right). At the base of sheet there are x15 (random) numbers (up to 100) for learners to cut out (following the dotted lines) and sort into the red/green boxes above. Learners could use their completed page 1 as a reference to help with completing page 2. There is a clear space at the top of page 2 (on the left) for learners to write their name as well as recording the number date (on the right). What’s needed? Page 1. Learners will need: a red and green pencil/crayon/felt tipped pen a pencil If using pen I would encourage learners to ‘circle’ each number (rather than ‘colouring them in’) to avoid the paper becoming saturated with pen - particularly if learners will then use page 1 as a reference to complete page 2. Page 2. Learners will need: a pencil scissors a glue stick Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes.

What’s included? This download includes x7 sheets in landscape orientation to investigate which numbers are odd and even from 1 to 10. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. This resource could precede the ‘odd/even numbers investigations’ to 20/100 - both of these resources are also available in my TES shop. Resource layout Page 1 has x7 step by step instructions and a visual example of how to use this resource for adults to reference to help learners get started. There are (colour coded) ‘sharing spots’ included for each number for learners to use to investigate whether each individual number in turn is odd or even from 1 to 10. Pages 2 to 6 Learners systematically work their way through the numbers (in order) from 1 to 10. For each number learners cut out and share out the correct number of ‘sharing spots’, alternating between placing (then sticking once happy) a dot on the left tall box then a dot on right tall box (repeated) until the correct total number of dots has been recorded. After doing this learners need to identify whether the amount of the dots on the left and right is ‘different’ or ‘the same’ and it is this which helps learners to identify whether each number is odd or even. There is a clear space for learners to write their name at the base of each sheet (on the left) and a space to write the number date at the top (right). Page 7 provides an opportunity for learners to consolidate their knowledge and record which numbers are ‘odd’ (in the red box on the left) and which numbers are even (in the green box on the right). Learners could complete page 7 on their own (from memory) or use their completed pages 2-6 as a reference to help with completing page 7 if needed. AlternativeSuggestion Coloured dot stickers could be used instead of the ‘sharing spots’ if you have these and if easier. Using sticky dots instead would save learners needing to cut out and stick down the ‘sharing spots’ provided which may help make this activity simpler.

This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource layout Page 1 has x7 step by step instructions and a visual example of how to use the resource (as described in the instructions) for adults to reference to help learners get started. There is a simple sentence identifying what ‘odd’ and ‘even’ means, however learners are able to investigate each individual number in turn (from 1 to 20) to find this out for themselves. This resource could precede the ‘odd/even numbers investigation to 100’ resource which is also available in my TES shop. Pages 2 to 6 Learners systematically work their way through the numbers (in order) from 1 to 20. For each number learners draw the correct number of dots, alternating between drawing a dot on the left then a dot on right (repeated) until the correct number of dots has been recorded. After doing this learners need to identify whether the amount of the dots on the left and right is ‘different’ or ‘the same’ and it is this which helps learners to identify whether each number is odd or even.

What’s included? x2 sheets, portrait orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students who need to revisit this or students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to make what a millilitre is visually clear to learners and to give learners an opportunity to count and identify a small amount of millilitres (up to 42) as part of 1000ml (one litre). How to use it? The first page is an ‘information sheet’ - introducing learners to what a ‘millilitre is, that ml is short for millilitre and what millilitres are used/useful for. One thousand squares have been used to visually demonstrate what one thousand ml would look like and that this is equal to one litre. This shows just how small one millilitre is (ccompared to 1000). This may be useful to make the concept of one (or more) millilitres visually clear to learners. The second page also shows one litre/one thousand millilitres visually - as 1000 blue squares and provides learners with the opportunity to count a limited number of ml and write what amount this would be as ml - if the blue squares shown were water. Suggestion When completing the second page of this resource learners may need it to be made clear to them that each number of millilitres (the red, orange, yellow, green and blue squares) is always part of the 1000 blue squares pictured on the whole sheet and not just the 100 blue squares that the orange/yellow/green/blue squares are shown to be a part of. Important… All squares are illustrations of millilitres shown to visually represent water and of course are not exact or equal to actual millilitres. Illustrations in this resource are not to scale. Special request ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes. A review of this resource would be brilliant! Thank you!

What’s included? x4 sheets, landscape orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students who need to revisit ‘how to measure objects using cm’ or students needing additional learning support. This resource may be suitable for children in the EYFS. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to give learners an opportunity to practise measuring the length of simple objects/shapes using cm (up to 25cm). How to use it? The first page is an ‘information sheet’ - introducing learners to what a ‘centimetre’ is and what it is used for in images and words. Pages 2 to 4 (numbered 1-3) provide practical opportunity for learners to use the images of the rulers provided to carefully measure the length of each object (image) featured. Page number 1 focuses on ‘stationery’, page number 2 on ‘kitchen items’ and page number 3 on ‘tools’. Page 3 uses the vocabulary ‘longer’ and ‘shorter’ and looks at the difference (in cm) between the longest and shortest tool - which may be a new concept for some learners and so may require some support. Suggestion I would encourage learners to draw a vertical line from the end of each object to the number on the ruler above (using a pencil and ruler!) to be sure of what the total length for each item is. Important… This resource has been designed to provide learners with an opportunity to practice measuring using the images of rulers marked with cm. These rulers are illustrations of rulers and not exact centimetres. It is printed on each sheet that the ‘illustrations in this resource are not to scale’. Special request ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a new resource if you have an idea just let me know - I’d love to hear from you!

What’s included? This download includes two A4, portrait pdf sheet to practise ordering numbers from 0 to 25. Dotted lines guide where to cut and a snake outline is provided to place and stick the numbers (in order) once complete. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in year one as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details The layout includes x2 pages. Page 1 shows the numbers (from 0 to 25) in the correct order and position. Dotted lines are provided guiding where to cut - both around the outline of the snake and between each number to separate them. Page 2 shows an outline of the snake shape to support learners with where to position and stick numbers once complete. To make this puzzle ‘more’ challenging a ‘blank’ sheet of A4 paper could be provided for each learner. The chevron/arrow shape of each number piece has been designed to guide learners on which direction to position/stick the ‘next’ number. Important message… ANY issues with this number snake please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes as needed. Feedback of this resource would be excellent! Thank you!

What’s included? This download includes x4 A4, portrait pdf sheets in black and white and colour. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to introduce learners to tallying - how to record tally marks carefully and correctly as well as providing an opportunity to both read and write their own tallies (on page 4). This resource has been created as an introduction to ‘tallying’ prior to working on a data handling activity. Recording accurate tally marks is a key part of data handling and an essential skill to record data correctly. It is important that learners are given an opportunity to practise tallying, ready to use the skill in a real-life activity situation. Resource Details The first x3 pages introduce tallying in a step-by-step way, showing learners what a ‘tally’ is, what it is used for and how to write tally marks correctly to record an accurate amount/score. The last, page 4, provides an opportunity for learners to read five tallies and write the total (up to 23) as well as record the correct number of tallies for five numbers (up to 24). Pages 1 to 3 have been designed for an adult to go through with a learner/group of learners in a step-by-step way. Page 1 Learners are introduced to what ‘tallying’ and a ‘tally mark’ is and how tallies are written. Page one clearly shows how tallies one to four are written and how the fifth tally mark is written differently. Page 2 Learners are introduced to ‘tallies’ being written as groups of five and introduces learners to how to write tally marks up to 10, providing an opportunity for learners to write their own tally marks to 10. Page 3 Learners are introduced to how to write tally marks up to 20, providing an opportunity for learners to write their own tally marks to 10 again - this time beginning at a ‘starting dot’ for each tally and tracing over the grey lines to write the tally marks correctly. Page 4 This has also been designed learners to practise reading and writing tally marks. Learners are to record the total number of tallies (writing the number) and record their own tally marks for each number provided. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a bespoke resource to better suit your needs just let me know - I’d love to hear from you! Feedback of this resource would be wonderful! Thank you!

What’s included? This download includes two sets of three A4, portrait pdf sheets ( a black and white AND colour version) to investigate which colour is each pupil’s favourite (designed for a class of 30 - up to 32 spaces available) and handling data linked to this - transferring the information collected to a clear, simple bar chart and answering questions about this. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details There are x3 sheets in total for the B&W or colour set. Page 1 is to be used in landscape orientation (to collect the data using the tally system). Pages 2 and 3 are both to be used in portrait orientation. Page 2 is designed to use the data collected on the tally chart (on page 1) to create a block graph to present this information. Page 3 asks questions related to the data collected and recorded on pages 1 and 2. The ‘colour’ version has been designed to make the meaning even clearer to learners, especially when plotting the bar chart and recording the colour names in answers to the questions on page 3. Spellings for all colours are clearly displayed at the top (of page 3). Page 1 Learners are to ask up to x32 people ‘What is your favourite colour?’ and record each response using the tally system. For learners who are new to/less familiar with 'how to tally’ - tallying is modelled on the right side of page 2. To begin at the top of page 1 is a space to record ‘how many pupils’ are present (in class) that day to question. Once the data has been collected the number of tallies for each colour can be counted. The totals of all colour groups can be added together to check if the same number of people identified as being present and available to ask ‘What is your favourite colour?’ matches the number of tally marks actually recorded. An important lesson in careful, accurate data collection. There is a space for two additional colours to be written if needed (in the boxes on the lower left side of the tally chart). Page 2 Using the information recorded on page 1 learners then transfer this information to the simple, clear bar chart presented on page 2. Learners are to colour the same number of ‘coloured boxes’ for the number of tallies recorded for each favourite colour. There is space on the bar chart for up to 32 people (for each colour group). There is also a space to record the data collected for up to two additonal colours (on the right side of the bar chart) if needed. Page 3 Using the information gathered through completing the activities on pages 1 and 2 the questions on page 3 are related to the number of people recorded as favouriting each colour. There is also an opportunity to practise both reading a tally and recording the correct number this shows and recording a number as a tally. Important message… ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know.

What’s included? x4 sheets, landscape orientation, pdf format. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for pupils in the early years, years one and two as well as older students who would benefit from investigating the concept of ‘symmetry’ and/or students needing additional learning support. What’s it for? This resource has been designed to encourage learners to investigate the lines of symmetry for all x26 lowercase letters of the alphabet! How to use it? The resource has been designed for learners to investigate the lines of symmetry by cutting out one letter at a time. Learners can either use a safety mirror and/or fold these squares to investigate where the lines of symmetry are. It is best if learners only ‘cut’ once they are sure they have found a solid line of symmetry - a (safety!) mirror would definitely be helpful as a back up to check especially if letters have already been cut up! Resource Details… Learners will need a pair of scissors each to begin this activity. Page 1. At the top are ‘larger’ lowercase letters, each within a dotted box - these dots guide where to cut. Learners can cut out one of these larger letters at a time (to avoid having lots of letters in front of them at once and risk losing some). Learners will need a pair of scissors each to begin this activity. Along the length of base of the sheet is a set of smaller lowercase letters designed to be cut with two simple snips (vertically up to the red line and then horizontally) to separate these from the sheet one at a time. These are designed to be used to record findings (answers) - on page 2. The larger lowercase letters can go into the bin after they have been cut up, folded and investigated. Page 2. Pupils will need a pencil to their write their name at the base of page 2 and access to a glue stick to continue their investigation using page 2. Once learners have investigated and discovered which letters are symmetrical they can snip and stick the smaller lowercase letters (at the base of page 1) onto either the left or right of page 2 - depending on whether they are/are not symmetrical. If learners are ‘unsure’ there is a space on the left for this also - they can stick letters there and come back to these later, perhaps with support/a mirror to check. Page 3 clearly shows which lowercase letters are/are not symmetrical, this is intended to be a reference sheet for learners once they have completed their investigation. Page 4 also clearly shows which lowercase letters are/are not symmetrical, but in more detail - including where the actual lines of symmetry are. For learners who might find the concept of symmetry difficult they can use page 4 (instead of page 1) and use the lines of symmetry included here to explore for themselves where to fold to investigate ‘symmetry’ with support. Special request ANY issues with any of this please don’t hesitate to let me know.

What’s included? This download includes two A4, portrait pdf sheets to make number fans featuring numerals from 0 to 10. Each number is a different colour - in rainbow colour order… How to use this resource Number fans can be used in a variety of situations including on-the-carpet questioning with the whole class/smaller groups where pupils can show their answers instead of speaking. Number fans can be used as a personal reference resource for learners e.g. to help count and order numbers and/or cross-check the correct orientation of individual numbers if unsure when writing. Number fans can also be used for a variety of games and to accompany and involve learners during counting rhymes and songs, usable both inside the classroom and outdoors. The rainbow colours may help some learners not yet confident with number recognition, who know colours. E.g. if you ask, ‘Can you show me number 3?’ - this could be followed by ‘Can you show me number 3, the orange number? Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Suggestion I recently purchased some brightly coloured plastic keyrings which can be easily opened by unclipping the plastic. These could be ideal should you wish learners to access the contents of the ring (e.g. to order the numbers) and come in a variety of colours. Alternatively I have found standard metal keyrings also work well as a more permanent ‘holder’ of the contents threaded onto the keyring. I recommend that each number is laminated before punching a hole and threading onto a keyring - this is included in the instructions on the pdf. Important message… ANY issues with this number fan please don’t hesitate to let me know - I am happy to make changes AND I am happy to create a new resource if you have an idea just let me know - I’d really love to hear from you!

What’s included? This download includes four A4, landscape pdf sheets to practise ‘counting objects and ordering numbers to 10’. This activity has been designed to use with miniature ‘Easter chicks’ as pictured in the photos. These sheets are intended to be printed onto card to improve durability (and usability!) How to use this resource This resource has been designed to be a ‘table top’ activity for learners to explore independently. There are two pages featuring green boxes with different amounts of eggs (between 0 and 10) on each. Learners are to count out the corresponding number of Easter chicks onto each of these eggs (pictured on the cards). There is a sheet featuring ‘numbered eggs’. These are intended to be cut out and used to ‘label’ the groups of chicks once they have been counted out. I have included ‘egg holder’ (with grass pictured on each base) which ‘hold’ each numbered egg. These resources were designed for an adult to pre-cut all items so that all items can be presented to learners as a crisp, fresh new activity to investigate and explore. Who’s it for? This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support. Resource Details Page 1 includes x11 numbered eggs (0-10) with dotted lines around the outside of each to guide cutting. There are two boxes at the top which can both be cut out and displayed with the activity to guide learners/support adults with what the activity is for and questions to ask/think about to learners them on task. Pages 2 and 3 include x11 rectangular boxes (with green outlines), each displaying a different number of eggs between 0 and 10. The idea is that these are cut out and placed on a table top along with a shallow bowl of ‘Easter chicks’ for learners to use to count out the matching number of chicks onto each egg. Once all ‘egg cards’ have been completed learners can then ‘label’ these groups of eggs and chicks with the numbered eggs’ (page 1) Page 4 includes x10 ‘grass numbered egg holders’ for learners (or adults) to display the ‘numbered eggs’ in. Rather than having all items laid flat on the table top, the holders enable the numbered eggs to ‘stand up’. Simple instructions for how to assemble these holders are included at the top of page 4.

What’s included? This download includes four A4, portrait pdf sheets to practise ‘counting objects (daffodils) and ordering numbers from 0 to 10’. These sheets are intended to be printed onto card to improve durability (and usability!) How to use this resources This has been designed to be a ‘table top’ activity for learners to explore independently. Learners can count the number of daffodils and match these to the corresponding numeral card. Cards are from 0 - 10 with a few spares. Learners can also use these cards to order numbers 0 -10 and 10 - 0. This was designed for an adult to pre-cut all items so that this resource can be presented to learners as a crisp, fresh new activity to investigate and explore. Who’s it for?
