Lesson details
Key learning points
- The 5 times table can be represented in different ways with groups of 5
- The 5 times table can be recorded as skip counting in 5 on a number line.
- The number of counts is one of the factors and the skip size of 5 is the other factor.
- The 5 times table can be represented using multiplication equations.
Keywords
Skip count - Counting in steps of equal size. For example, skip counting in twos means to count in equal steps of two.
Factor - A factor is a number which exactly divides another whole number.
Product - A product is the result of two or more numbers multiplied together.
Common misconception
Children may struggle to count in multiples of 5s
Use of concrete resources: 10 frame and 5 p coins can support children to practise skip counting in 5s. Then move onto counting in 5s on a number line.
Regular practice should be undertaken, including outside the main maths lesson, until children are fluent.
