Year 1 Maths 25.1.21


Today in maths we are focusing on subtraction crossing 10.


Use the counting back in ones song to get you warmed up and ready to start today. Click here and get ready to join in.


Now have a look at these power point slides. Remember to share your ideas and answers with a grown up.


Finally, I would like you to complete this worksheet, solving the subtraction problems.


Grown ups: if your child is finding it difficult to understand the idea of subtracting back to 10 first, please continue to practise counting back in ones using a number line. Click here if you need a number line.


Extension challenge: Choose a number to 10 and explore all of the number bonds for that number. For example, you might choose 7 and find that 1 + 6, 2+ 5, 3 + 4 etc are all equal to 7. Please encourage your child to use objects to support this exploration, such as beads / pasta / buttons. Can you write down a calculation to match each number bond?


Please email a photo of your work to me today so I can see how you have got on.
