Lesson Four – Number Differences
This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to identify and model how to use standard written methods of subtraction to calculate the difference between different pairs of six digit numbers.
The class can explain and illustrate how to use exchange between place value when completing each of the steps in using the written subtraction method of decomposition.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to identify and model how to use standard written methods of subtraction to calculate the difference between different pairs of six digit numbers
Activities in this teaching pack include a template and a set of cards to model and record how to use standard methods of subtraction to calculate the difference between pairs of six digit numbers when working through each of the steps in decomposition calculations with exchange between place value.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to use standard methods of subtraction to calculate the difference between pairs of six digit numbers.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to practise mental and formal written methods of addition and subtraction calculation working with different numbers in millions and decimals. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
