How about a Hit the Button Challenge?
Choose number bonds that you need to learn, if you're not sure start at 10 and see how you get on
Number Bonds to 10
Number Bonds to 20
Number Bonds to 100
Play a game now and record your score then play the same game every day for a week.
What's the best score you get?
How much have you improved from your first score?
Grown ups can take part in this challenge too.
We'd love to hear how you get on.
Perhaps, once you are an expert you can move on to other number bonds or other important mental calculations which are helpful to know by heart
