Sprouts · ages 5–6
Free Year 2 maths games
Usually ages 6–7 · Topics follow the National curriculum in England: mathematics programmes of study
Year 2 ends Key Stage 1. The national curriculum expects children to recall addition and subtraction facts to 20 fluently, add two-digit numbers, recall the 2, 5 and 10 times tables, and tell the time to five minutes.
Number Quest's Sprouts trail covers first sums, counting and comparing. When facts to 20 are secure, the Trail (ages 7–9) adds bigger sums, missing numbers, times tables, money and the clock.
