  1. Aims of this session To ensure understanding of the number facts that your child/children should know To give a better understanding of what – and how – your child is learning in maths at QH To increase confidence in supporting maths at home

  2. Counting in groups Children group similar objects almost instinctively, and are guided to do this (where necessary) through play. They are then taught to count the objects in similar groups.

  3. Skip Counting Skip Counting is mainly practised with the 2, 5 and 10 times tables (Years 1 and 2), though is also used to aid recall in KS2.

  4. Skip Counting 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 Skip Counting in 2s 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Skip Counting in 10s

  5. Arrays Arrays are objects or numbers arranged in rows/columns.

  6. Arrays In the Early Years, children begin using arrays as Tens frames.

  7. Arrays This is supported by their use of Numicon.

  8. A real-world context for arrays

  9. More contexts for arrays

  10. Application of arrays 3 people can sleep in one tent, how many tents will we need for 33 children? 11 tents for people in groups of 3 11 x 3 = 33

  11. Applying simple factsIf I know 10x5 what else do I know? • 9x5 • 5x5 • 11x5

  12. Using arrays with inverse relationships Teaching these relationships builds and understanding of commutativity – which is required from Year 2!

  13. Applying commutative laws - Division Jenny is having a birthday party. She has invited 9 friends, and wants to make sure that they all get an equal share of her 30 sweets. Jenny says: “3 lots of 10 is equal to 30, so I know that each person should get 3 sweets”. How do you know that she is correct? Jenny has used her knowledge of commutativity! She knew that 3 x 10 = 30, and has worked out from this that 30 ÷ 10 = 3.

  14. Aiding recall of the times tables Puzzle sheets!
