To the Castle! • Numbers to 100

Numbers to 100 – a maths game for ages 6–9

An online maths game with numbers up to 100. Your child leads a hero across a lake to a castle: three islands rise from the water, each with an answer, and the right answer is a jump closer to the gate. Six good jumps and the castle is won. Each of the seven castles has its own topic: adding and subtracting within 20, adding within 100, subtracting within 100, multiplying and dividing, missing numbers, comparing numbers and counting in steps, and finally a bit of everything.

After a wrong answer the island sinks and the task card shows how to work it out: in two jumps, tens first and then ones, or by working backwards.

For teachers

Online practice for the interactive whiteboard, with no login. The game practises comparing numbers, adding and subtracting two-digit numbers, multiplying and dividing, missing numbers and the signs <, > and =. The class can choose an island together. The Master level adds a timer to every question, and after a mistake three new islands rise instead of the two that were left.

For homeschooling parents

Free and without adverts. The task can be heard with the “Read aloud” button, so the game also suits a child who is still learning to read. The castles your child has won stay in the browser, and “Start over” goes back to the first castle.
