Max Maths, Year 1, WORK BOOK, Counting to 10

The Max Maths workbook for Year 1 provides a variety of engaging activities to help children practice counting up to 10 and recognising numbers up to 20. In Practice 1, children are tasked with counting items such as balls, dots, and flowers, and insects. They are encouraged to count aloud and are given visual examples to aid their understanding. For instance, they might see a picture of a football and count one, or multiple basketballs and count accordingly. The workbook's approach is interactive, asking children to count together and offering help for those who need it.

Further activities within the workbook include drawing a specified number of dots in different colours, matching dots to numbers, and associating words with the correct number of beads. Children are also invited to read number words and write the corresponding numerals, as well as count objects like ladybirds and write the number in words. The exercises are designed to reinforce counting skills and number recognition in a fun and practical way. Additionally, children can engage in a word search to find numbers, complete a jigsaw puzzle shaped like a number, and even find the name of a place in the United Kingdom by matching numbers to letters. These activities not only solidify their numerical understanding but also connect it with problem-solving and geography.
