KS1 Maths Worksheets (Ages 5–7)
KS1 maths worksheets are practice sheets for children aged 5–7 in Key Stage 1 (Years 1–2) in the UK. Maths covers number sense, counting, the four basic operations, shapes, measurement and patterns, taught through objects before abstract symbols. The sheets on this page cover number sense and counting, addition and subtraction, shapes and measurement and patterns and comparison.
Key Stage 1 covers Years 1 and 2 together, the stretch in which a child becomes an independent reader and writer while moving from counting to calculating. Year 1 work centres on phonics and the screening check; Year 2 shifts towards spelling patterns, longer writing and mental arithmetic with two-digit numbers. Five-year-olds join and separate groups within 10 and write the matching equation. A balanced set covers addition and subtraction with pictures and then numbers only, number bonds to 10 on a ten frame, writing numerals to 20 and counting aloud to 100, comparing two numbers, teen numbers as ten and some more, 3D shapes such as cube and sphere, measuring by comparison, and sort-and-count charts. Regrouping and place value beyond the teens are next year's content.

Time Telling Worksheet: Circle the Correct Time!
Ages 5-7 · Kindergarten–Grade 1Ages 5-7 · Year 1–Year 2Ages 5-7 · UKG–Class 1Ages 5-7
Reading an analog clock face and choosing the matching time from three written options builds clock-reading fluency for children ages 5-7, requiring them to interpret both the hour and minute hands together rather than guessing from a single hand.
Squirrel's Acorn Maths: Addition, Comparing and Picture Sudoku Worksheet
Ages 4-8 · Pre-K–Grade 2Ages 4-8 · Reception–Year 3Ages 4-8 · LKG–Class 2Ages 4-8

Children count the hands of Goddess Durga, Goddess Laxmi and Lord Ram and the heads of Ravana, and learn which festival each one belongs to.
3-Digit Subtraction Worksheet for Kids
Ages 5-7 · Kindergarten–Grade 1Ages 5-7 · Year 1–Year 2Ages 5-7 · UKG–Class 1Ages 5-7
Subtracting three-digit numbers introduces children to borrowing, or regrouping, across place value columns, a more demanding skill than simple subtraction since it requires understanding that a ten can be 'broken' into ones when a column doesn't have enough to subtract from. For ages five to seven, this worksheet builds the procedural foundation for confident multi-digit subtraction going forward.
Navaratri Dance Count: A Fun Counting Worksheet for Kids!
Ages 4-8 · Pre-K–Grade 2Ages 4-8 · Reception–Year 3Ages 4-8 · LKG–Class 2Ages 4-8

Ages 4-7 · Pre-K–Grade 1Ages 4-7 · Reception–Year 2Ages 4-7 · LKG–Class 1Ages 4-7
This worksheet helps children learn to identify and continue decreasing patterns, developing their observation and logical reasoning skills.
Descending Order Balloons Worksheet for Preschoolers
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
This worksheet asks children ages 4-6 to arrange the numbers on a row of balloons from largest to smallest, practicing descending order as a companion skill to the more commonly taught ascending order. Comparing several numbers at once and deciding their relative size builds a flexible sense of number magnitude that supports later skills like rounding and estimation.
2D Shapes Worksheet for Preschoolers: Identifying Shapes and Properties
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
This worksheet pushes 4-6 year olds past simply naming shapes into analyzing their properties — counting sides and corners for circles, triangles, squares, rectangles, pentagons, and hexagons, and using those properties to answer more complex questions about which shapes combine to form others. That combination-and-composition piece (asking what shapes make up a bigger shape, or identifying a shaded portion) is genuine early geometric reasoning, well beyond simple shape recognition.
Tens and Ones Worksheet: Counting Fruits and Matching Numbers!
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
Counting groups of fruit and organizing them into tens and ones builds early place value understanding for children ages 4-6, a foundational concept for reading and writing two-digit numbers correctly.
Skip Counting Adventure: Fill in the Blanks Worksheet for Numbers 2, 5, and 10!
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
Filling in missing numbers in sequences that count by twos, fives, and tens teaches children ages 4-6 to recognize numerical patterns beyond counting one at a time, an important stepping stone toward multiplication later in school. Because each skip-counting sequence has a consistent gap between numbers, children must notice and apply that pattern rather than simply reciting a memorized list. This worksheet also builds flexible number sense, helping children see numbers as a system with predictable structure rather than an arbitrary list to memorize.
Sheep's Barnyard Adventure: A Fun Counting and Movement Worksheet
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
This board-game-style worksheet helps children ages 4-6 practice counting and number recognition by rolling a die and moving a sheep piece along a numbered path, following simple instructions at each stop. Turning counting practice into a game with chance and movement keeps children engaged far longer than a static worksheet, while still reinforcing accurate counting and number sequence recognition along the path.
Fun Add & Subtract Worksheet for Preschoolers!
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
This worksheet introduces children ages 4-6 to the basics of addition and subtraction by having them count pictured objects, record the quantities, and then combine or take away groups to find a total. Working with visual objects rather than abstract numbers alone helps children build a concrete understanding of what addition and subtraction actually mean before they're expected to solve equations using numbers only.
Subtraction Fun: Practice Problems for Early Learners
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
This worksheet gives children ages 4-6 repeated practice with basic subtraction, working through simple equations and word problems that build number sense before formal arithmetic instruction begins. Filling in missing numbers within equations also introduces the idea that subtraction is reversible and connected to addition, an early step toward flexible number thinking. Repeated, varied practice like this helps subtraction facts move from effortful counting to quick recall.
Crossword Math Worksheet: Fill in the Missing Numbers!
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
This crossword-style worksheet has 4-6 year olds solve a series of subtraction equations to fill in missing numbers, then cross-check their answers by matching them across and down within the grid — a built-in accuracy check that regular subtraction worksheets don't offer. Because an answer has to be correct in both directions to complete the crossword properly, this format naturally encourages your child to double-check their subtraction rather than move on after a single attempt.
Before and After Numbers Worksheet for Preschoolers
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
Children ages 4-6 strengthen their understanding of number order by identifying which number comes immediately before and after a given number, a skill that builds number line reasoning beyond simple counting. Completing the cherry and lolly counting sections adds a real quantity-based check to the abstract number sequencing work. Together, these tasks deepen number sense and prepare children for addition and subtraction, which depend on knowing neighboring numbers.
Subtraction Worksheet: Practice Subtracting with Fun Pictures!
Ages 4-6 · Pre-K–KindergartenAges 4-6 · Reception–Year 1Ages 4-6 · LKG–UKGAges 4-6
Children ages 4-6 practice subtraction by looking at a set of pictured objects, crossing out or removing the indicated amount, and writing the resulting total. Seeing subtraction visually, rather than only as abstract numbers, helps children genuinely understand what 'taking away' means before relying on memorized facts. This visual approach builds a strong foundation for mental math strategies used in later grades.
What KS1 maths worksheets cover
Five-year-olds join and separate groups within 10 and write the matching equation. A balanced set covers addition and subtraction with pictures and then numbers only, number bonds to 10 on a ten frame, writing numerals to 20 and counting aloud to 100, comparing two numbers, teen numbers as ten and some more, 3D shapes such as cube and sphere, measuring by comparison, and sort-and-count charts. Regrouping and place value beyond the teens are next year's content.
- Add and subtract within 10 with pictures, then numbers only
- Complete number bonds to 10 on a ten frame
- Write numerals to 20 and count aloud to 100
- Compare two numbers and circle the greater one
- Name a cube, sphere, cone and cylinder
How to use these worksheets at home or in class
Because this stage spans two years, match the sheet to what the classroom is doing rather than to age alone: decoding and number bonds for a Year 1 child, comprehension and times tables for a Year 2 child, in sessions of fifteen to twenty minutes.
Start with the sheet that matches what your child can already do, then move one step up. Keep finished sheets in a folder: KS1 teachers often ask for evidence of practice, and children like seeing their own progress.
Is your child ready for KS1 maths work?
A child ready for the later half of this stage reads a short passage with reasonable fluency, writes several connected sentences, adds and subtracts within twenty and recalls the 2, 5 and 10 times tables with growing confidence.
- Recall addition and subtraction facts within 20
- Write a two-digit number as tens and ones
- Add two-digit numbers in columns without regrouping
Frequently asked questions
How many maths worksheets should a five-year-old do in a week?
Three or four sheets of about ten minutes each, rotated across the strands: one counting or number-writing page, one addition or subtraction page, one on shapes, patterns or measuring. Keep objects on the table for anything below the number-only stage. When a page is completed correctly without finger counting, move that strand up a step and leave the others where they are.
What should a KS1 child be able to do in maths?
Five-year-olds join and separate groups within 10 and write the matching equation. A balanced set covers addition and subtraction with pictures and then numbers only, number bonds to 10 on a ten frame, writing numerals to 20 and counting aloud to 100, comparing two numbers, teen numbers as ten and some more, 3D shapes such as cube and sphere, measuring by comparison, and sort-and-count charts. Regrouping and place value beyond the teens are next year's content. A child ready for the later half of this stage reads a short passage with reasonable fluency, writes several connected sentences, adds and subtracts within twenty and recalls the 2, 5 and 10 times tables with growing confidence.
Do these worksheets follow the KS1 curriculum?
The sheets cover number sense and counting, addition and subtraction, shapes and measurement and patterns and comparison, which sit inside the National Curriculum Key Stage 1 outcomes for KS1. Kindergarten to 1st Grade (US), UKG to Class 1 (India) use the same skills at this age, so the sheets also fit families following those programmes.
Are these KS1 maths worksheets free?
Yes. Each worksheet downloads free as a watermarked PDF once you create an account, with a limit of five a day. An annual membership ($20) removes the watermark and the limit for the whole library of over 1,000 worksheets and every printable pack.
