For parents and carers
This is a deck of flash cards for Key Stage 1 mathematics — about 10 minutes of focused activity. Your child can flip through this on their own or with you alongside. There's no pressure to finish in one sitting.
Their best score, the time taken, and any answers they got wrong will all be saved automatically to your dashboard so you can see how they're getting on.
For teachers and tutors
A a deck of flash cards aligned to the DfE National Curriculum for Key Stage 1 mathematics. Use as a standalone activity, a homework task, or a lesson plenary.
Pupils' completion data and assessment scores flow into the class dashboard so you can spot who needs support and on which sub-topic.
How to check the work
Flashcards are a self-test tool. Ask the child to say what's on the back BEFORE flipping. They're ready to move on when they get 9 out of 10 correct two sessions in a row.
