Lego Display Fraction Strips

Support pupils with counting from 10 in Year 1 using this practical washing line game. The activity gives pupils an opportunity to practise the number sequence and develop confidence counting forwards from 10.

Ideal for practical maths sessions, small-group work or additional number practice, this resource provides an alternative to completing a worksheet and can be used when pupils are developing fluency with counting and number order.

How can pupils practise counting from 10?

Practising the number sequence helps pupils become more secure with the order of numbers. A washing line activity provides a practical way for pupils to work with the numbers themselves, encouraging them to think about which number comes next as they count forwards.
