St Bernadette KS1 Maths No Problem Parent Workshop Monday 29th April 2019

Aims of the Session. To introduce the Maths No Problem approach Aims of the Session *To introduce the Maths No Problem approach *To help parents to understand how Maths is taught at St Bernadette and what the expectations are *To show the methods and strategies used for addition, subtraction, multiplication and division across KS1

Addition

Add one-digit and two-digit numbers to 20, including zero Year 1   Add one-digit and two-digit numbers to 20, including zero

This is the ‘cherry’ method. It is a way to partition a number.

Add with 2-digit numbers Year 2   Add with 2-digit numbers

The ‘cherry’ method is used again here to partition into tens and ones.

Subtraction

Subtract one-digit and two-digit numbers to 20, including zero Year 1   Subtract one-digit and two-digit numbers to 20, including zero

Subtract with 2- digit numbers Year 2   Subtract with 2- digit numbers

Multiplication

Year 1   Solve one-step problems involving multiplication by calculating the answer using concrete objects, pictorial representations and arrays.

These are arrays. It is important to set it out clearly in rows so the children can interpret it correctly.

Year 2   Calculate mathematical statements and solve problems using the 2, 3, 5 & 10 multiplication tables.

Division

Year 1   Solve one-step problems involving division by calculating the answer using concrete objects, pictorial representations and arrays.

Year 2   Calculate mathematical statements and solve problems for division within the 2, 5 & 10 multiplication tables.

Link to the law of commutativity to show the relationship between multiplication and division.

What can parents do? Year 1 – Counting on and back Number bonds to 10   Year 1 – Counting on and back Number bonds to 10 Count in steps of 2, 5 and 10 Year 2 – Fast recall of 2, 3, 5, 10 x tables
