Year 1 Doubles and Halves Worksheets

These Year 1 doubles and halves worksheets help children explore equal groups, repeated addition and early division ideas. Doubling and halving are important KS1 maths skills because they support number facts, mental maths, sharing, grouping, fractions and later multiplication.

Children can use these worksheets to practise finding simple doubles, finding halves and recognising when an amount has been split into two equal parts. The activities are designed to be child-friendly and printable, making them useful for home practice, classroom learning or revision.

Doubles and halves help children understand how numbers can be made larger or split into equal parts. This builds early confidence with equal groups and prepares children for multiplication, division and fractions.

Parents can use these worksheets at home with practical objects such as counters, toys or coins. Children can double an amount by making the same group twice, then halve an amount by sharing it equally into two groups.

Teachers can use doubles and halves worksheets during fluency sessions, practical maths lessons, intervention groups or revision before introducing sharing, grouping and fractions. Once children understand doubles and halves, they are better prepared for number bonds, equal groups and halves and quarters.
