Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. Unitising and known facts help you to add and subtract multiples of ten
  2. If 3 + 2 is equal to 5 then 3 tens + 2 tens is equal to 5 tens which is equal to 50
  3. If 5 - 2 is equal to 3 then 5 tens subtract 2 tens is equal to 3 tens which is equal to 30

Keywords

  • Add - Finding the total, or sum, by combining two or more numbers.

  • Subtract - Taking one number away from another.

  • Multiple of ten - Groups of ten.

Common misconception

Children may rely on counting in tens rather than using known facts to add and subtract multiples of ten.

Encourage children to look for patterns as they add and subtract multiples of ten. Compare to the single-digit facts they know. Make a list of known facts to refer to.

This lesson uses money and problem solving to summarise the unit, using known facts and unitising to add and subtract multiples of ten. Record the equations alongside known facts to make the links explicit. Use stem sentences to express the equations in full sentences to reinforce the unitising.
