Lesson Two – Milk

This numeracy teaching pack for the Foundation Stage gets the children to identify and record quantities of different objects that can be used to care for the animals on a farm and find the sums that are one less by counting back using a number line.
The class can practise using concrete equipment to model subtraction calculations to show the sums that are one less than numbers to ten.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to identify and record quantities of different objects that can be used to care for the animals on a farm and find the sums that are one less by counting back using a number line
Activities in this teaching pack include a set of cards to identify and count numbers of farm objects and record the numbers that are one less and a template to select and record the matching numbers of animals to ten that might live in a farm meadow.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore quantities of different objects that can be used to care for the animals on a farm and find the sums that are one less by counting back using a number line.
This lesson is part of a numeracy scheme of work to get the children to identify and record counted sets of objects that are one less than different numbers to ten on the theme of farms and farming. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
