What's included?
Targeted Year 1 resources for pupils to compare groups of objects up to 10 using comparative language (more, fewer, equal), a key KS1 Maths objective. Activities employ the CPA approach to build conceptual understanding of relative number size before introducing formal symbols. This essential small step supports reasoning in early number comparison and is vital for national curriculum mastery. The CS Maths Scheme provides engaging visual and practical comparison tasks.
