Addition and subtraction facts within 10
Lesson details
Learning outcome
I can solve problems using known addition and subtraction facts within 10
Key learning points
- We can visualise a problem to help us understand what it is asking.
- We can represent addition and subtraction facts using bar models and manipulatives.
- We can calculate using a range of strategies to solve addition and subtraction problems within 10
Keywords
Visualise - To imagine a given problem before us in real life.
Represent - To communicate mathematical ideas through models.
Calculate - To choose one of the four operations to solve a problem.
Check - To evaluate working, ensuring our response provides an answer to the given problem.
Common misconception
Without correct representation, children may struggle to know what to calculate.
If needed, provide support at this stage so that the structure of the mathematics is clear to children.
Teacher tip
'Visualise', 'represent', 'calculate' and 'check' provides a memorable process children can undertake when solving any given problem. Visualisation of the problem is the key here as if children cannot 'see' the maths in the real world, they cannot accurately represent it.
