Using known addition and subtraction facts

I can use known addition and subtraction facts within 10 when solving problems.

Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. In order to solve a problem, we must visualise and represent it. Once we can see a problem, we know what to calculate.
  2. We can represent a problem in many different ways, including as bar models, ‘First, Then, Now’ models and equations.
  3. To calculate a solution, we can use a range of strategies.
  4. We can use our knowledge of addition facts to help us solve subtraction facts.
  5. We can use our knowledge of subtraction facts to help us solve addition facts.

Common misconception

Children may recall a fact incorrectly, deploying the wrong strategy to calculate.

Revisit strategies for calculating within 10 including using knowledge of doubling, near-doubles, odd and even numbers and one more and one less. Spend time practising recall of these facts beyond the lesson.

Keywords

  • Represent - Showing something or standing for something.

  • Calculate - To work out an answer.

  • Efficient - Not wasting time or effort. An efficient strategy is one we can carry out easily.

  • Strategy - A plan or method to achieve a specific goal.

'Visualise', 'represent', 'calculate' and 'check' provides a memorable process children can undertake when solving any given problem. Visualisation of the problem is the key here as if children cannot 'see' the maths in the real world, they cannot accurately represent it.
