Maths in Senior Infants
Senior Infants is when many children start to read and work with numbers. These games give five- and six-year-olds quick, playful practice with the skills they are learning in class.
- Short and often beats long and rare: 10 minutes a day builds fact fluency faster than an hour once a week.
- Start one level below where your child is comfortable. Early wins build confidence.
- Ask your child to explain how they got an answer. Talking through a strategy deepens understanding.
- Celebrate streaks and personal bests rather than perfect scores.
