Lesson One – Number Pins

This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to practise using concrete objects to model and record how to perform subtraction calculations when taking some different single digit numbers away from ten.
The class can identify and model how to correctly complete some example number sentences to show the matching sums for each of the completed subtraction calculations.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise using concrete objects to model and record how to perform subtraction calculations when taking some different single digit numbers away from ten
Activities in this teaching pack include differentiated templates to select and record matching number calculations when subtracting single digit numbers from ten for core and extension ability levels and when finding one less than numbers to ten for support ability levels.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to use concrete objects to model and record how to subtract some different single digit numbers from 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.
