Lesson Details
Key learning points
- Addition and subtraction calculations can represent counting on and back over the 100s boundary.
- When you count on in tens, sometimes the 10s digit only changes and sometimes the 100s digit changes.
- When you count back in tens, sometimes the 10s digit only changes and sometimes the 100s digit changes.
Common misconception
Pupils may partition numbers incorrectly when adding or subtracting across a 100s boundary.
Encourage pupils to add or subtract to first the 100s number, using number pairs that total 10 or 100.
