Keep it short
Five to ten happy minutes usually beats one long, tiring session.
Praise the process
Notice good thinking and brave trying, not just the right answer.
Make it playful
Count socks, read signs and spot shapes while daily life is happening.
Personalise today's ideas
Choose a learner to see guidance for their school year.
Start with their current school year
Choose any Year 1–6 path, then move down for confidence or up for a gentle challenge. There is no need to finish everything in order.
Pick the support that fits today
These are normal moments across primary school—not labels or a fixed learning path.
Reading and spelling
Try sound hunts, shared reading and short word games. If b and d are being mixed up, use the “bed” hand trick as one quick visual reminder.
Maths confidence
Use counters, sketches and real objects. For fractions or word problems, draw the parts and identify the question before calculating.
Growing Maltese
Build confidence through conversation, familiar objects and one useful new word at a time. Encourage attempts before correcting details.
Learning beyond the screen
Maths in real life
Count and share snacks with younger learners; compare prices or discounts with older ones.
3 minutesStory detective
Hunt for sounds and punctuation, or ask an older reader to explain one clue or inference.
5 minutesKelma tal-ġurnata
Pick one Maltese word of the day and see how many useful sentences you can make with it.
All day!Quick parent questions
Simple answers for keeping practice light and useful.
Which year should we choose?
Start with your child’s current school year. If they need confidence, it is perfectly fine to play an easier level; if they are breezing through, try the next year.
What information is stored for child profiles?
Only the first name or nickname and school year you provide. We do not ask for a birth date, school, child email, or other identifying details.
Is progress saved?
Stars and completed games stay in this browser. Child profiles are stored securely in the parent account so each learner can have age-appropriate recommendations.
How often should we practise?
A few short sessions across the week are more useful than a long session that becomes tiring. Stop while it still feels good.
Little Learners supports everyday practice. If you are worried about your child’s progress, speak with their teacher for advice tailored to them.
