Year 1 Morning Starter Mats: Summer Term Set 6
Year 1 Morning Starter Mats: Summer Term Set 6 includes five write-on morning mats designed to help pupils settle quickly and begin the day with focused, purposeful tasks.

In this Summer Term set, activities include:
- Maths tasks – counting forwards and backwards, representing numbers using tens and ones, comparing numbers, identifying greater and smaller values, exploring place value and solving simple number challenges using base ten equipment
- Spelling and phonics practice – reading and writing real and nonsense words, completing words with missing graphemes, practising words containing ‘oy’, ‘ir’ and ‘ue’ sounds and adding prefixes and plural endings such as ‘un-’, ‘s’ and ‘es’
- Grammar and writing skills – adding finger spaces and punctuation, ordering sentences to create a simple story, completing sentence stems, writing statements about pictures and applying capital letters correctly
- Reasoning and problem-solving opportunities – using digit cards, comparing quantities, representing numbers in different ways and exploring number patterns through short maths investigations
- Consistent layout – familiar structure that supports independent learning and helps pupils complete activities confidently as part of the daily routine
These Year 1 morning starter mats are ideal for daily warm-ups, early morning work, transition times or early finishers, helping pupils revisit key maths and English skills in short, manageable activities. Explore more sets in our full collection of Year 1 Morning Starter Mats.
