Parent questions

What does the Year 1 drill cover?
Seventeen addition questions using numbers 1 to 9, against a 30-second target — the addition facts within 20 that the Year 1 curriculum expects children to recall.
My child still counts on their fingers — will this help?
Yes, that is exactly what timed recall practice is for: short daily bursts turn counting-on into remembered facts, so answers become automatic rather than worked out.
Does it need a login or cost anything?
No — it is completely free with no sign-up and no adverts, and best scores are saved only on your own device.
