LI: I can use a method to find more than one possible solution to a problem Steps to Success… Suggest numbers to find a given total, using apparatus if needed Find a range of possible solutions to a total Use a method to ensure that all possible solutions are found
LI:I can choose and carry out the correct operation Steps to Success… Recognise the four operations- add, subtract, multiply and divide Put the correct operation in a gap to make the number sentence correct Make a judgement when looking at a missing operation number sentence, depending on the size of the numbers
18 ? 22 = 40 Talk to a partner, which operation goes in the gap?
71 ? 28 = ? 6 = ? 2 = 16 Think about what is happening to the number each time
Let’s write a rule…. A smaller number in the end means ………… or …………… A bigger number in the end means ………… or …………….. Add Subtract Multiply Divide
LI: I can work with a partner to find all the possible answers to a problem Steps to Success… Recognise the four operations- add, subtract, multiply and divide and know which will make a number smaller or bigger. Work as part of a team. Think of ways to make 20 using + or – Check that all of the methods in your group are different Record ways of making 20 using multiply or divide Help others that are not sure to succeed.
LI: I can invent number stories to illustrate a problem Steps to Success… Be able to read a sum aloud, recognising the 4 operations Fill in the missing operations or numbers Think of a simple number story to explain the sum to a partner Think of more complicated number stories where the partner will have to listen carefully Design own number sentence and story using more than 1 operation.
