P1 Maths Mastery 🟨πŸŸ₯

21st Jan 2026

πŸŸ₯🟨 Primary 1 Maths Mastery πŸŸ₯🟨

Primary 1 are learning to group in 2s as part of our maths mastery programme πŸ”’βœ¨
The children worked together to count and and to understand what grouping in 2s really means.
This hands-on approach supports early number sense, teamwork and mathematical language in a fun and meaningful way πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘

πŸ’‘ Try this at home:
• Count socks, shoes or gloves and group them into pairs πŸ§¦πŸ‘Ÿ
• Count legs on animals in books or toys and talk about how many pairs there are πŸ•πŸ“–
• Line up toys in groups of 2 and count how many altogether 🧸🧸
• Clap, jump or step in 2s to make counting active and fun πŸ‘πŸ‘£

Small, playful activities like these really help build confidence in early maths skills πŸŒˆπŸ“
