Bridging is a strategy which uses addition or subtraction to cross a number boundary.

Partition means splitting an object or value down into smaller parts.

The 100s boundary is the point at which the numbers change into 100s numbers, or from one set of hundreds to another.

Solve problems by adding and subtracting to or from 3-digit numbers

Maths

Represent a 3-digit number up to 1,000 in different ways

Count forwards and backwards within 3-digits

Position 3-digit numbers on number lines

Estimate the position of 3-digit numbers on unmarked number lines

Count forwards and backwards in multiples of 2, 20, 5, 50 and 25

Solve problems by counting forwards and backwards in multiples of 2, 20, 5, 50 and 25

In this unit pupils will use knowledge of place value to represent a 3-digit number in different ways. They will compare and order 3-digit numbers and position on number lines and unmarked number lines. In the future unit pupils will compare and order 4-digit numbers. They will learn what rounding is and will round 4-digit numbers to the nearest thousand, hundred and ten.

 In the prior unit pupils explored the counting sequence to 100 and beyond representing the numbers from 20-99 in different ways including on a number line They learned to represent 20-99 as a length In this unit pupils will use knowledge of place value to represent a 3-digit number in different ways They will compare and order 3-digit numbers and position on number lines and unmarked number lines
