Free counting in steps game for Years 2 to 4 — counting on in 2s, 3s, 5s, 10s, 25s and 1,000s, matched to the national curriculum. No account needed.
Count forwards and backwards in curriculum-linked step sizes from 2 to 1,000. The default practice mode is untimed, so the learner can think before choosing. Correct answers build a gentle celebration; mistakes receive corrective feedback and return later rather than causing a penalty spiral.
Learning objective: Continue number sequences by counting in equal steps and identify missing values.
Curriculum anchor: England mathematics programmes of study: number and place value in Years 2 to 4.
This game is designed as short independent practice after an idea has been introduced. It does not replace direct teaching, mathematical or scientific discussion, or an adult checking whether the learner can explain the idea away from the screen.
Ask the learner to say the fixed step aloud and check the difference between neighbouring terms. Stop while attention is still good. A short accurate return tomorrow is more useful than extending a tired session today.
Does it need an account? No. The game runs in the browser and asks for no name, email address, school or location.
Is it timed? Practice is untimed. Where a sprint exists it is optional. Times Tables Sprint also includes MTC-style independent practice, not an expected-standard judgement.
Can it be used on a phone? Yes. Buttons support touch and keyboard use; sorting always has a tap alternative to dragging.
