Lesson Five – Number Links

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to explain and model how to use numerical digits and pictorial symbols to produce matching equations for numbers that are greater than and less than other numbers to ten.
The class can practise using a set of cards to show how to compare pairs of numbers to ten using the correct vocabulary for greater than and less than.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to explain and model how to use numerical digits and pictorial symbols to produce matching equations for numbers that are greater than and less than other numbers to ten
Activities in this teaching pack include differentiated sets of cards to practise using numerical digits and pictorial symbols to produce equations for numbers that are greater than and less than other numbers to ten for core and extension ability levels and to five for support ability levels.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to use digits and symbols to produce equations for numbers greater than and less than other numbers to ten.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to use concrete equipment and diagrams to model how to compare numbers within twenty by the value of their digits when recording equations using numbers and symbols. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
