Ages 6–7

Grade 1 worksheets

Grade 1 is where written methods take hold. Addition and subtraction without regrouping come first, alongside sight-word reading and the first fill-in-the-blank sentences.

Recommended for this age

Build one sheet that covers several skills

Rather than printing a separate worksheet for each activity, add several sections to a single sheet. A typical grade 1 page might combine a short arithmetic section, a few missing numbers, and a matching exercise — all sized for the age group automatically when you set the grade.

Start with Addition

Frequently asked questions

Should Grade 1 sums involve carrying?

Not at first. Set regrouping to “Never” until the written method is secure, then switch it to “Always” so carrying is met deliberately.

How many questions per sheet?

Around twenty for arithmetic. If a child gets the first ten right, raise the difficulty rather than adding more of the same.
