Numbers Between in IB PYP Grade 1 Mathematics

In IB PYP Grade 1 Mathematics, Numbers Between, within Number Sequence gives emerging learners (ages 6–7) the chance to practise finding the number between two numbers, using counting to find what is in the middle and reading a number line.

PYP learning is inquiry-based: children explore ideas through questions, play and real-life examples, so worksheets and games here are designed to be short, clear and encouraging.

What learners practise

  • Finding the number between two numbers
  • Using counting to find what is in the middle
  • Reading a number line
  • Solving “before, after, between” together

For students

Work through the worksheets and interactive activities at your own pace. Check your answers, then redo anything that felt tricky and explain each answer in your own words.

For parents

Sit with your child for the first few questions and ask “how do you know?”. Praise effort and keep sessions short.

For teachers

Use numbers between activities as a starter, homework or retrieval practice, and mix free and premium resources to differentiate.

Study tip

Little and often beats cramming: ten focused questions a day will build more fluency than one long session at the weekend.
