Common misconception
Pupils may find it difficult to solve problems or misunderstand questions.
Take time to act out problems particularly the game, to ensure pupils understand where the mathematics can be seen in real-world examples. Using smaller examples can help learners understand the connections.
Teacher tip
A task has been explained in Cycle 2 using hoops or circles on the floor and bean bags. This can be an engaging way to encourage learners to calculate efficiently. Consider how this can be adapted for your setting e.g. using Base 10 ones cubes and a small target board.
