Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. Our knowledge of pairs that sum can help when solving subtraction problems and equations.
  2. Quickly remembering these number pairs is important for later work.

Common misconception

Children may try to count back from 10 rather than using knowledge of pairs that sum to 10.

Use practical equipment to make links between addition and subtraction explicit, demonstrating the relationship on cherry or bar models and number lines.
