Addition

Laying the foundations……

• Number lines.• Practical equipment• Multilink cubes• Real life contexts.• Number bonds• Patterns

Real life problems…..

•There were 13 children on the bus, 5 more children got on in Standish and 7 more children got on in Appley Bridge. How many children were on the bus altogether?

Partitioning……..• Arrow cards• Place value• Partitioning• Recombining

Beginning to use column addition, step

1…..• Continue to use partitioning• 364+ 34=300+60+4+30+4=300+90+8• Then we recombine it all, to be left

with the answer, 398.

Using column addition, step 2……

• Continue to use partitioning.• 364+54= 364

+ 54 300 110

+ 8 418

Column addition….• The final step, when the children

have a sound grasp of place value & of the whole process…

• 364+ 54 418 1

Vocabulary• Add • Plus• Altogether• Addition• Total• Count on

An everyday tool ……• Mathematics is something that we

use in our everyday lives, all of the time. We are here to teach children and to give them a variety of strategies to cope. All children may not all end up at the same point, but they will all have some understanding of how to work addition sums out.
