Fascinating Fact:

Share into 2. 12 sweets shared between 2 children is 6 each, so 12 is even. 13 shares as 6 each and 1 left, so odd.

In KS1 Maths, we test numbers by making pairs. If everything pairs into twos, the number is even. If one is left over, it is odd. Digits 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 show even endings.

Key Terms

Odd number: A number that cannot be shared into two equal groups without a leftover.
Even number: A number that can be shared into two equal groups with nothing left over.
Pair: Two things grouped together, like two counters or two socks.

Try the Numeracy Game to practise pairing, counting in twos, and spotting odd or even endings.

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

How do I know if a number is even?

Check the last digit. If it ends in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8, it is even. You can also try pairing objects into twos with nothing left over.

Is zero odd or even for KS1?

Zero is even because it fits the rule for even numbers. It can be divided into two equal groups of zero with nothing left over.

What trick helps with large numbers to check odd or even?

Look only at the last digit. If the last digit is odd, the whole number is odd. If the last digit is even, the whole number is even.
