Year 1 Morning Starter Mats: Autumn Term Set 2
Year 1 Morning Starter Mats: Autumn Term Set 2 includes five write-on worksheets designed for daily early morning work in KS1. Each mat is linked to the National Curriculum and gives children a calm and purposeful start to the day. With space to record answers directly, they are ideal for younger pupils who find copying from the board more challenging.
In Set 2, activities cover:
- Maths challenges – number sequences, missing numbers, counting objects, showing different ways to make nine, and matching numbers to words
- Phonics and spelling – practising words like pit, sit, and in, high-frequency words such as is, it, and, at, rhyming with mat, and words beginning with c
- Writing tasks – creating sentences, writing names with capital letters, adding full stops, captions and descriptive writing
- Discussion prompts – picture-based activities encouraging observation and conversation
These Year 1 morning starter mats build fluency in maths and English, support retrieval practice, and develop writing confidence. Perfect for daily warm-ups, settling activities or transitions. Explore the rest of our Year 1 Morning Starter Mats.
