Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. Representations help to identify the calculation needed to solve a problem.
  2. Different strategies can be applied to solve different problems.
  3. Evaluating or discussing strategies helps to find the most efficient one.

Common misconception

Pupils not understanding what the problem is asking them to find out and identifying the operation.

Model the use of bar models and manipulatives to represent the problem and how to identify the operation and calculations needed.

Keywords

  • Add - Bringing two or more numbers or things together to make a new total.

  • Subtract - Taking one number from another.

  • Strategy - A way to solve a problem.

  • Part - A piece or section of a whole.

  • Whole - All of a group or number.

This lesson separates the identification of the structure of the problem, its representation and the calculation from the solving of the problem. Encourage pupils to see this discussion and representation of the problem as a key part of the process.

Q3.
Which is the best way to partition the subtrahend in this equation? 150 - 70 = 80
Partition 70 into 10 and 60
Partition 70 into 30 and 40
Correct answer: Partition 70 into 50 and 20
Q4.
What number is missing from this calculation? 120 − 70 = 120 − 20 − .
Correct Answer: 50, fifty
Q5.
Which partitioned subtrahend will help you to bridge 100?
Correct Answer:150 - 90,90 = 50 + 40

90 = 50 + 40

Correct Answer:180 - 90,90 = 80 + 10

90 = 80 + 10

Correct Answer:140 - 50,50 = 40 + 10

50 = 40 + 10

Correct Answer:120 - 50,50 = 20 + 30

50 = 20 + 30

Q6.
Match the missing subtrahends.
Correct Answer:150 − _ = 90,60

60

Correct Answer:140 − _ = 90,50

50

Correct Answer:130 − _ = 90,40

40

Correct Answer:120 − _ = 90,30

An image in a quiz
70 cm + 50 cm
Correct answer: 170 cm - 70 cm - 50 cm
170 cm + 70 cm + 50 cm
170 cm - 70cm
170 cm - 50 cm
