I am delighted to inform you about a new exciting game we’re using to support your child’s maths in Year 1. The creators of Times Tables Rock Stars have produced a platform for boosting addition and subtraction skills, called NumBots.

NumBots is an online game and playing little and often will significantly improve your child’s recall and understanding of number bonds and addition and subtraction facts.

Logging In
Each child's Log in details have been sent to parents on Class Dojo. To start playing NumBots you just need to download the FREE Numbots app from your app store.  

Alternatively if you’re playing on a PC or laptop visit https://play.numbots.com/

Little and often
In order to get the best out of NumBots children should regularly play for short bursts so we recommend 5 minutes each day.

Game Types
Story Mode – the emphasis is on learning the ideas and concepts behind addition and subtraction so it features more diagrams, shapes and question styles.
Challenge Mode – the emphasis is more on speed of recall of key facts, like number bonds to 10, doubling small numbers or adding & taking away in your head.

Please let Miss Park know if you have any questions on Class Dojo!
