Explore the counting sequence for counting to 100 and beyond

Maths

In this unit pupils will explore the counting sequence for counting to 100 and beyond and represent the numbers from 20-99 in different ways including marking the position on a number line. They learn to represent 20-99 as a length. In the future unit pupils consolidate their counting across and on from 100. They will learn to represent a three-digit number up to 199 in different ways.

In the prior unit pupils extended their counting to 100 They explored pattern in counting, focused on the end of the decade and the start of the new decade numbers.
