Unit D – Calculation Solutions

This maths scheme of work for Key Stage Two gets the children to use standard written methods of addition and subtraction to check calculated sums using inverse operations and solve problems with multi-step solutions. The class can identify the instructions to follow when completing each step in a calculation.

Use standard written methods of addition and subtraction to check calculated sums using inverse operations and solve problems with multi-step solutions

Lesson One : Sum Checking

Identify and model how to use standard subtraction written methods for decomposition to check the sums of addition number calculations

Lesson Two : Number Pyramids

Practise using inverse operations to add and subtract pairs of different five digit numbers using standard written methods to complete layers in a puzzle shape

Lesson Three : Robot Factory

Practise using standard written addition and subtraction calculations to solve different number word problems about products that could be made by robots in a factory

Lesson Four : Family Party

Explain and model how to use standard written addition and subtraction calculations to select items needed for a family celebration to match a specific money budget

Lesson Five : Number Races

Identify and practise how to use the correct standard written number calculations when adding and subtracting different pairs of four and five digit numbers
