This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise using an abacus to display the hundreds, tens and ones that comprise different numbers to one thousand to illustrate the values of the digits in each number.

The class can explain and model how to record the identified numbers displayed on each abacus using words and digits to show the hundreds, tens and ones for each of the number values.

Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to practise using an abacus to display the hundreds, tens and ones that comprise different numbers to one thousand to illustrate the values of the digits in each number

Activities in this teaching pack include differentiated templates to select and build different numbers to one hundred for support ability levels, to one thousand for core ability levels and to three thousand for extension ability levels using their matching hundreds, tens and ones digit values.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to use an abacus to display the hundreds, tens and ones that comprise different three digit numbers.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to investigate and compare the place value of the matching sets of digits in numbers to one thousand to indicate their hundreds, tens and ones values. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
