Lesson Details
Key learning points
- Equations can be represented using part-part-whole or bar models.
- The sum is the whole and the addends are parts.
- Equations can be written starting with the addends or with the sum.
Common misconception
Pupils may struggle starting equations with the sum. They may think = means 'the answer is..'
Ensure that children understand that 'equals' means that the equation balances (i.e. both sides have the same value.) This could be achieved through using balance scales and attaching the idea of equals with balance.
Keywords
