Recently, we have created dedicated pages for the UK curriculum for Years 1 to 6.

These pages link to resources created for US students from Kindergarten to 5th Grade.

Broadly speaking, here are the Year and Grade equivalences for the UK and US curriculum:

• Year 1 is roughly equivalent to Kindergarten
• Year 2 is roughly equivalent to First Grade
• Year 3 is roughly equivalent to Second Grade
• Year 4 is roughly equivalent to 3rd Grade
• Year 5 is roughly equivalent to 4th Grade
• Year 6 is roughly equivalent to 5th Grade

There are a few areas where the Maths terminology and pedagogy differ.

In some areas, the UK learning objectives are 'ahead' of the US curriculum and in other areas, the US standards are 'ahead' of the UK curriculum.

One obvious area is money: the coins and ways of writing money amounts differ.

However, there are also some distinct differences in Geometry definitions, such as trapeziums and trapezoids, where the definitions are swapped over.

There are also differences in some of the imperial measurements compared to their standard measure counterparts, for example in the US, a pint is 16 fluid ounces or about 473ml and in the UK, a pint is 20 fluid ounces or 568ml.

So what have we done to make these differences clear?

Where the terminology and concepts are different, we have provided separate pages for the US and UK measures.

This means that you can be sure that if you are on the correct UK page, then the information is correct and reliable.

We have also created individual hub pages for each school year, from Year 1 to Year 6 which link to the relevant skills needed for that particular year group.

The only real issue left for UK students and educators is that the spelling of all our worksheets (except the ones created especially for the UK) is US spelling.

This means that words like colour are spelt 'color'.

Otherwise, the worksheets are completely adaptable for the UK curriculum.

We hope you are able to accept this issue when using our sheets!

Here are the links to our UK hub pages for each year group.

Here are our UK specific conversion charts for metric and imperial units.

We also have easy-to-print versions of each chart if you want to save a copy!

Our UK shop sells ebooks designed and adpated for students in the UK.

We currently sell maths games booklets for Year 2 to Year 6.

Each booklet consists of over 20 games and is available to download now!

The Math Salamanders hope you enjoy using these free printable Math worksheets and all our other Math games and resources.

We welcome any comments about our site or worksheets on the Facebook comments box at the bottom of every page.
