Year 1 Morning Starter Mats: Summer Term Set 2

Year 1 Morning Starter Mats: Summer Term Set 2 includes five write-on morning mats designed for a calm, purposeful start to the day. Each mat contains four short tasks (maths challenge, maths workout, spelling and a writing task), giving pupils a clear routine they can complete independently while practising key Year 1 skills.

In this Summer Term set, activities include:

  • Maths tasks – counting in twos and fives, identifying number patterns, filling in missing numbers, ordering sequences and solving simple number problems
  • Spelling and phonics practice – identifying real and nonsense words, adding suffixes such as -ed, and completing words with common spelling patterns like ur and qu
  • Writing skills – adding missing finger spaces, using capital letters for names, adding punctuation (full stops and question marks), and reordering words to form simple sentences
  • Consistent layout – familiar structure across the set so pupils can settle quickly and work independently

These Year 1 morning starter mats are ideal for daily warm-ups, early finishers or transition tasks, helping pupils build confidence in maths and English while developing independence. Explore more sets in our full collection of Year 1 Morning Starter Mats.
