Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. Counting in tens is the pattern of the 10 times table.
  2. All multiples of 10 have a zero in the ones column.

Keywords

  • Skip counting - Counting in steps of equal size. For example, skip counting in twos means to count in equal steps of two.

  • 10 times table - A set of multiplication facts where the product is a multiple of 10

Common misconception

Children may struggle to count in multiples of 10s

Use of concrete resources: 10 frames, number lines and 100 squares and can support children to practise skip counting in groups of 10

Regular practice should be undertaken, including outside the main maths lesson, until children are fluent.
