Plan and teach the Autumn term with our Year 1 maths planning and resources, aligned with White Rose Maths and the Year 1 National Curriculum. This collection brings together the full set of Autumn blocks, including lesson plans, interactive teaching slides, differentiated worksheets, practical activities and assessment resources.
Throughout the Autumn term, pupils build secure foundations in place value within 10 and 20, addition and subtraction within 10, and recognising, sorting and naming 2D and 3D shapes. Lessons support fluency, reasoning and problem-solving through clear modelling, visual representations and mathematical discussion.
Use the blocks in sequence to follow the full Autumn progression, or download individual lesson packs to support your existing maths timetable.
These Year 1 Autumn maths resources form part of our complete Year 1 maths scheme. Explore the full Year 1 page for curriculum coverage, progression and long-term planning across the academic year.

At the end of the term, use the Autumn assessment resources to check key skills, identify gaps and support pupils who need extra practice before moving into Spring term learning.
Our Year 1 Autumn maths resources provide a complete set of planning, worksheets, teaching slides and assessments for the first term of Year 1. The blocks are aligned with White Rose Maths and support the Year 1 National Curriculum for number, calculation and geometry.
Pupils begin the year by securing place value within 10 before moving on to addition and subtraction within 10, shape work and place value within 20. The sequence supports fluency, reasoning and mathematical understanding through clear modelling, practical activities and varied representations.
Throughout the Autumn term, pupils develop confidence with counting, comparing and representing numbers, using part-whole models, exploring number bonds and recognising 2D and 3D shapes. Lessons encourage pupils to explain their thinking and use mathematical vocabulary with increasing confidence.
The Autumn term assessment resources help teachers review pupils’ understanding of early Year 1 maths concepts, including counting, comparing, addition and subtraction, shape recognition and place value within 20. These checks can be used to identify gaps, plan support and prepare pupils for the Spring term sequence.
These resources sit within our complete Year 1 maths scheme, with Autumn, Spring and Summer term blocks designed to support progression across the full academic year.
