Counting Teacher Resources for Early Primary
Number sense begins with counting. These early-primary counting resources cover the full progression from subitising small quantities and counting to 10 and 20, through to skip-counting, counting to 100 and place value with larger numbers. Lesson plans, worksheets, slide decks and quick formative assessments are ready to teach, so you can spend more time with students and less time planning.

What's Included in the Counting Resources
🔥Curriculum Aligned
Every resource maps to the early-primary maths curriculum and to the number sense progression most teachers already follow: subitising, one-to-one correspondence, counting forward and backward, skip-counting and place value. You can pick up any lesson and know it sits in the right place in the scope and sequence.

🌍 Differentiated for Students
Differentiation is built in. Each lesson includes a below, on and above level pathway, so the same activity works for the child still building one-to-one correspondence and the child ready to skip-count off the decade. Concrete supports (ten-frames, counters, number lines, hundreds charts) are referenced in the lesson notes and pre-made in the printable packs.
💡Incredible Teacher Resources
Each counting unit ships with a lesson plan, a teacher slide deck, printable and digital worksheets, a question bank and a short formative assessment. The pack is structured the way you'd plan a week of maths: a warm-up subitising routine, an explicit teaching slide deck, guided and independent practice, then a quick check for understanding before you move on.

Interactive Resources
Practice Questions
Lesson plans and slide decks for whole-class teaching, with subitising warm-ups, ten-frame and number-line modelling, and worked examples you can drop straight into your maths block.
Structured Solutions
Differentiated Questions
Differentiated practice activities and worksheets for small-group and independent work, including dot cards, ten-frame tasks, number-line jumps, hundreds-chart patterns and counting-collection investigations.
Real-World Applications
Engaging Exercises
Quick formative assessments and exit tickets that show you, in five minutes, which students can count fluently, which need more time on a stage, and which are ready to stretch into skip-counting or place value.

What's Covered in the Counting Resources
Foundation to Year 2: Number Sense and Counting to 20
Year 3 to Year 4: Place Value, Larger Numbers and Real-World Counting
Year 2 to Year 3: Counting to 100 and Skip-Counting Patterns
This stage extends counting to 100 and beyond. Students count by 1s, 2s, 5s and 10s, skip-count on and off the decade, and use the hundreds chart to spot the patterns that sit underneath every multiplication fact. Lessons include teacher slide decks for hundreds-chart routines, differentiated worksheets for skip-counting in groups, and reading and ordering three-digit numbers. Quick formative checks tell you which students are ready for place value.
The early-years pack builds the foundations of number. Students subitise small quantities on dot cards and dice patterns, match collections to numerals, count forward and backward to 20, and use ten-frames to see the structure of numbers to 10. Lessons move from counting concrete objects, to counting represented quantities, to writing and ordering the numerals 0-20. Short games and quick exit tickets check one-to-one correspondence and number recognition before you move students on.
The upper-primary counting pack moves into place value to thousands, partitioning numbers in standard and expanded form, and counting in real-world contexts: money, time intervals, measurement and collections of objects. Repeated-addition tasks bridge counting into early multiplication, and word-problem worksheets push students to choose the right counting strategy for the situation. Short assessments check whether students can count fluently in context, not just on a number line.
