Key Instant Recall Facts

By the end of this half term, children should know the following facts. The aim is for them to recall these facts instantly.

Year 1 – Autumn 1I know number bonds for each number to 6.

Top Tips

The secret to success is practising little and often. Use time wisely. Can you practise these KIRFs while walking to school or during a car journey? You don’t need to practise them all at once: perhaps you could have a fact of the day. If you would like more ideas, please speak to your child’s teacher.

Use practical resources – Your child has one potato on their plate and you give them three more. Can they predict how many they will have now?

Make a poster – We use Numicon at school. You can find pictures of the Numicon shapes here: bit.ly/NumiconPictures – your child could make a poster showing the different ways of making 5.

Play games – You can play number bond pairs online at www.conkermaths.com and then see how many questions you can answer in just one minute.

0 + 1 = 11 + 0 = 1

0 + 2 = 21 + 1 = 22 + 0 = 2

0 + 3 = 31 + 2 = 32 + 1 = 33 + 0 = 3

0 + 4 = 41 + 3 = 42 + 2 = 43 + 1 = 44 + 0 = 4

0 + 5 = 51 + 4 = 52 + 3 = 53 + 2 = 54 + 1 = 55 + 0 = 5

0 + 6 = 61 + 5 = 62 + 4 = 63 + 3 = 64 + 2 = 65 + 1 = 66 + 0 = 6

Key VocabularyWhat is 3 add 2?What is 2 plus 2?

What is 5 take away 2?What is 1 less than 4?

They should be able to answer these questions in any order, including missing number questions e.g. 3 + M = 5 or 4 – M = 2.

Science – KS1Science – KS1Some physics topics moved to KS2 only:

• Light & Dark; Sound; Forces; ElectricityReduce requirement to know life processesNo requirement to make predictions or fair testsDrugs as medicines removedCare for animals/others/environment removedChanging materials with heat moves to KS2Y1: Naming of plants and animals addedY1: Seasonable changes & weather addedY2: Introduce simple food chainsY2: Some study of movement on different surfaces

ArtArtGreatly reduced detail in content, with much of the broader detail included in the aims.

Specific objectives include only 4 areas:• Use a range of materials (KS1)• Use drawing, paint & sculpture to share

ideas• Develop techniques in colour, line, form,

etc.• Learn about the work of artists and

designers
