Lesson Four – Tree Leaves

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to practise using the number technique of counting back to model and record how to subtract pairs of single digit numbers within ten.
The class can make and work with some example leaves to support subtraction mental calculations when identifying the matching sums that can be used to complete each of the selected number equations.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise using the number technique of counting back to model and record how to subtract pairs of single digit numbers within ten
Activities in this teaching pack include templates to model and record the mental calculations that can be used when subtracting pairs of single digit numbers within ten to illustrate how to use the number technique of counting back to find each matching sum.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to use counting back to model how to subtract pairs of single digit numbers within ten.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to model and illustrate how to subtract pairs of single digit numbers within ten using concrete equipment and diagrams to support the subtraction calculations. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
