Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. Adjacent multiples of 10 have a difference of 10
  2. If you add 10 to a multiple of 10 you get the next multiple of 10
  3. If you subtract 10 from a multiple of 10 you get the previous multiple of 10

Keywords

  • Previous - Occurring before in time or order.

  • Next - Occurring after in time or order.

Common misconception

Pupils may not understand the keyword adjacent and have difficulty understanding the word problems.

Model correct usage in a range of contexts including labelling abstract equations and using the term to identify the known elements in worded problems. Take time to show adjacent on number lines connecting to addition and subtraction of equal groups.

Provide pupils with plenty of practice of the ten times tables over an extended period of time until children are fluent in the isolated multiplication facts. At this stage, they can recite the ten times table up to the required number of tens in order to find the answers.
