Year 1 Ready: Maths — a full year's maths course for parents (7 videos, 13 lesson cards, printables)

A child who can count to a hundred cannot always count seven buttons. Counting the rhyme and counting the objects are different skills, and Year 1 is where the difference starts to matter.

What you get

• 7 videos, about 60 minutes
• 13 printable lesson cards — parent explainer, worked model, practice set, full answers with marking notes, and the common mistakes to watch for
• The Year 1 Ready Maths companion book, every lesson in one document
• A Reception readiness checklist, to find any gap before you start
• The slides from every video, including the overview deck
• A one-page A3 course map
• The full chart library: place value mats and Gattegno charts, hundred square, number lines, tens frames, all twelve times tables and the multiplication square, handwriting sheets in print and cursive, phonics phases 2 to 6, phoneme, digraph and trigraph charts, and the high frequency and common exception word lists

Who it is for
