KS1 Maths Worksheets (Ages 5–7)

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
