Key learning points
- Tens numbers can be added to or subtracted from a multiple of ten.
- When you add a tens number to a multiple of ten the tens number increases.
- When you subtract a tens number from a multiple of ten the tens number decreases.
- If 3 + 1 is equal to 4 then 3 tens + 1 ten is equal to 4 tens which is equal to 40
- If 4 - 1 is equal to 3 then 4 tens subtract 1 ten is equal to 3 tens which is equal to 30
Common misconception
Children may use counting on and back strategies instead of application of known facts and therefore be inefficient when adding and subtracting multiples of 10
Use representations to make clear links when unitising e.g. adding 2 to 3 and then adding 2 groups of 10 to 3 groups of 10, to support children in making the link. Children should be increasingly fluent in addition and subtraction within 10
