Lesson Five – Tree Leaves
This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to identify, count and record the number of leaves that can be seen on tree branches using different equal groups for twos, fives and tens.
The class can practise using concrete equipment to model how to complete multiplication statement for each number group when recording matching products for each set of leaves.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to identify, count and record the number of leaves that can be seen on tree branches using different equal groups for twos, fives and tens
Activities in this teaching pack include templates to produce models of tree branches and complete written statements to illustrate multiplication calculations showing numbers of equal groups of leaves that might be growing on tree branches.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to record the number of leaves that can be seen on tree branches using different equal groups.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to use concrete equipment and diagrams to record how to count in steps of two, five and ten to calculate the sums of different numbers of objects. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
