Lesson Details
Key learning points
- When we double, we add two equal addends.
- When we halve, we subtract one of the equal amounts from its double.
- Halving is the inverse of doubling.
- If I know double 4 is 8, I know half of 8 is 4
Common misconception
Children may struggle to see that a double is two of the same thing.
Spend time exploring doubles that can be found in the children's immediate environment e.g. using their hands or playing a game of dominoes.
