Help your Year 2 pupils build fluency and problem-solving skills with this interactive Maths Resource Pack, focusing on adding three one-digit numbers. Fully aligned with the National Curriculum, this resource introduces strategies for combining three single-digit numbers efficiently and accurately. Through engaging teaching slides and worked examples, pupils explore mental strategies such as spotting number bonds, making 10, and looking for doubles to simplify calculations. For example, children learn that in the problem 3 + 7 + 5, they can first make 10 with 3 + 7, then add the remaining 5 to reach 15. Independent activities encourage pupils to practise systematically, explain their reasoning, and apply strategies to a range of problems. Real-life word problems are included to make learning meaningful, while the plenary recap consolidates methods and helps children reflect on which strategies worked best.

“Good value, and the answers are actually on it.”
Small thing, but half the free sheets online expect you to work the answers out yourself. My TA can run a group on this without a briefing first.

“Fine, though the font is small for my class.”
The maths is right and the sequence is sensible. Several of my children needed it enlarged to A3, which is easy enough but worth knowing before you print thirty.

“Printed it at eight on a Sunday and taught it on the Monday.”
No editing, no reformatting, no hunting for the answers. The three levels are on separate pages, which sounds obvious until you have used the sites where they are not.
