What your child learns in each grade
A plain-English overview for parents of what children typically learn each year in maths and English, from Kindergarten to Grade 6. Each guide breaks the year into a start, middle and end, lists signs your child is ahead or may need support, and links to free printable worksheets to practise. Expectations vary by country, state and school, so treat these as typical milestones, not a strict checklist.
