Using non-standard measures: length
Let's get measuring. Look at your hand. Stretch it out as big as it can go. The distance from your thumb to your little finger is called your hand span. Go around your house finding things that are smaller and things that are larger than your hand span. Write them in these circles.
Comparing weights
This practical and fun activity will enable your child to compare weights of two household objects to see which is the heaviest. Why not find other objects to compare as well?
Measurement terms around the house
Cut out the cards. Put some Blu Tack on the back of them, then go on a measurement trail around your house. What items could be described by the words? Stick your cards on them!
Measurement trail around the house
Rulers at the ready! Find things around the house for each measurement and fill in the chart.
Number ladders
Number lines are vertical versions of number lines, used in primary-school maths to help children become familiar with our number system and perform simple calculations like addition and subtraction.
Number lines
Number lines are an essential tool in primary-school maths. Print out our colourful versions for use with your child at home, or use them as inspiration to help your child design (and perhaps decorate) their own number line.
Number colouring: odd and even numbers
Colour in the squares with odd numbers green. Don’t forget: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 are odd numbers. Colour in the squares with even numbers brown. Don’t forget: 2, 4, 6, 8 are even numbers.
Number colouring: find the multiples of 5
Colour in the squares with multiples of 5 grey. Colour in the squares with any other numbers yellow.
Choose the route: addition and subtraction
Starting with the number on the left, work out which route the girl takes to get to the yellow house. Which route does she take to get to the lilac house?

Multiplication and division calculations matching
Melissa has checked her multiplications by using division. Which calculations do you think she used? Match the correct pairs of multiplication and divisions.
Inverse operation: subtraction
Inverse operations are opposites. We use them to check our calculations, ‘undoing’ an operation to get us back to where we started. The inverse calculation of addition is subtraction. Use subtraction to help you find the missing numbers in these sums.
Introduction to learning fractions
A fraction represents a part of a whole, with the numerator (top number) indicating how many parts are taken and the denominator (bottom number) showing the total number of equal parts the whole is divided into. Use this fractions worksheet, created by teachers, to help teach your primary school child the basics of fractions.
Greater than and less than
When a number is bigger than another number we use the ‘greater than’ sign. When two numbers are the same we use the equals sign. When a number is smaller than another number we use the ‘less than’ sign. Can you add in the correct symbol in the number pairs below?
Comparing numbers
Can you look at these lists of numbers and find the largest and smallest in each group? Colour the largest number RED and the smallest number BLUE.
Comparing measures: greater than, smaller than and equal
Can you stick the correct symbol on these pictures? Then find (and draw) something in your house that is: taller than you; shorter than you; the same height as you.
Addition using number facts
Can you solve these problems? Underline the important words as you read them through. Use your knowledge of number bonds and doubles to help find the answers.
