Why this why now

This unit extends and secures the stable order principle of counting forwards and backwards to and from 20 in different contexts and from different starting points. Pupils have the opportunity to rehearse key language and to develop their understanding of how the numbers relate to different representations. This learning will be revisited and developed in later units focusing on composition of numbers to 20

Prior knowledge requirements

  • Count forwards and backwards from 0 to 20
  • Recognise and write numerals to 20
  • Compare small numbers
