Are there websites where a child can practice for KS1 SATs?

May be there are worksheets or on line practice tests. I would appreciate your help. Thank you.

Advice is simple - DON'T!

KS1 SATs are teacher assessed.

They will do a test which is a very small part of the overall assessment. Schools can do this when they want to (not sure of exact timings but I think between January and June). It does not have to be a year end thing at all. There is really no point in trying to practise them as your child is being assessed continually by their teachers and one high level on one paper is not about to influence what they get, if the rest of their work is at another level. Also it could be that your DC has already done the "test" part (although unlikely as most schools do them around May/June I think)

Not sure why you would want to do this....?
KS1 SATS are not important - please don't place too much pressure on your child x

Thank you for the comments. It looks as I should not worry about the test. Is it that easy? He is 6 but reluctant to study (at least at home). I know he should be playing at this age but a little bit of extras would not do any harm to him. So, what is the test?
Why KS1 SATS are not important? SOme of his classmates are so bright. I have heard from their parents they do extra studies at home. The kids do not look harmed by that. I doubt they are Tiger mums.

The education within KS1 is important - if you wnat to do supplementary stuff at home, that's up to you. But that's different from practising for a test or assessment. The test is just the work they do within thier normal school day. Diffferent schools use differnt maths teaching methods and differnt reading schemes and writing schemes, so it's hard fr anyone on MN to advise you specifically what to do. You sghouldn't confuse your child with a differnt method from what they do at school.

But usually practising number bonds within a game, reading with quizzes to help comprehension, measuring things and general educational games will help.

You can buy KS1 workbooks in places like WH Smith (NB: I bought these because DC wanted some maths workbooks and I knew from KS1 descriptor they'd be about the right material, not that we were prepping for SATs in particular!).

Mathsisfun.com is a good website if your child enjoys doing maths games, too.

A while back my year 2 child did a SATs paper. We as parents not told about it and I only knew for a three reasons afterwards. Ds said they did a special test in silence [unmoved by it as not made big deal of]. Another mother came charging out of school shouting 'they have had a SATs test' over and over [could have slapped her]. Also a friend of ds said he had done the test before at home but made sure he didn't tell the teacher. .
I try to be unmoved and am leaving it with the school and hope that is the right thing to do. School is still great fun for ds at the moment and I don't want to ruin that.

Absolutely the things they learn in KS1 are important, but the test is not important in that they will never be turned down for a job if they don't get a 3 at KS1(!)

The purpose of the tests is for the teacher to know where each child needs help and which table to put them on, not for parents to compare with others.
