Year 1 Morning Starter Mats: Autumn Term Set 12
Year 1 Morning Starter Mats: Autumn Term Set 12 includes five write-on worksheets designed for daily early morning work in Year 1. Each mat is fully aligned with the National Curriculum and helps children start the day calmly and purposefully. With space to record answers directly, they are ideal for younger pupils who may find copying from the board more difficult.
In Set 12, activities include:
- Maths challenges – naming 2D and 3D shapes, sorting shapes into groups, completing part-whole models, continuing patterns, and solving word problems with snowmen and number facts
- Phonics and spelling – writing plurals with -s and -es, practising blends and digraphs such as ew, ue, ff, and ay, and completing spelling puzzles with picture prompts
- Writing tasks – joining sentence halves, correcting capital letters and punctuation, writing descriptive sentences from photos, and practising rhymes and simple poems
- Discussion prompts – picture-based and seasonal activities encouraging observation, description and talk
These Year 1 morning starter mats support retrieval practice, build confidence in maths and English, and strengthen early writing skills. Perfect for early morning work, warm-ups or daily transitions. Explore more in our full collection of Year 1 Morning Starter Mats.
