2. The two areas in Mathematics are  Numbers.  Shape space and measure.

3. Expected level.   Children count reliably with numbers from one to 20, place them in order and say which number is one more or one less than a given number. Using quantities and objects, they add and subtract two single digit numbers and count on or back to find the answer. They solve problems, including doubling, halving and sharing.

4. Numbers Counts reliably up to 3/ 6/10 everyday objects. a) Can count up to 3/6/10 objects using 1 to 1 correspondence. b) Can count out or take up to 3/6/10 objects from a larger set. c) Can count an irregular arrangement of 3/6/10 objects.

5. Recognises numerals 0 to 10 and then 10-20 a) Can consistently recognise the numerals 1 to 9 in a range of contexts. Orders numbers up to 10 and then 20. a) Can recognise the numbers 1 to 10 b) Can arrange/order a complete set of numbers up from one to ten.

6. Finds one more or one less from a group of up to five objects, then ten objects. a) Can find one more in practical contexts. b) Can find one less in practical contexts.   Relates addition to combining two groups. a) Can combine two groups and find how many there are by counting them.

7.   Relates subtraction to taking away a) a) Can remove a smaller number of objects from a larger group and find how many are left by counting the remaining objects.

8. Addition I have 5 sweets. I buy 2 more. How many do I have altogether?

9. Addition 4+6= 10 4+6= 10

11. Subtraction I have 5 sweets my sister takes 2 away. How many are left?

12. Subtraction 8-4=4

14. Exceeding level.   Children estimate a number of objects and check quantities by counting up to 20. They solve practical problems that involve combining groups of 2, 5 or 10, or sharing into equal groups.

15. Books and Websites.  Six dinner Sid by Inga Moore-  good for counting out amounts up to six.   The shopping basket by John Burningham–  good for one less, taking away.   Then the doorbell rang by Pat Hutchins–  good for sharing an amount.   A place for zero by Angeline Lopresti – good for place value and introducing adding 0.   One is a snail. Ten is a Crab by April Sayre — good for looking at the relationship between numbers and general  counting.   The great Pet Sale by Mick Inkpen– good for an introduction to money.   www.tesiboard.co.uk   www.ictgames.co,uk   www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk   www.tpet.co.uk   www.twinkl.co.uk 

16. What can you do at home?

17. . Activities to do at home. You can help at home by:   Singing songs that take away or add things e.g. 10 green   bottles, 1 man went to mow, 5 currant buns   Exploit all counting opportunities – count stairs, count buttons,   count lampposts on a walk, count ‘red’ cars on a journey etc.   Commercial games such as snakes and ladders - these help with   the counting on strategy.   Throwing beanbags/balls at numbered targets and adding up   scores – who scored the most? The least?   Practice counting in 2s, 5s and 10s.   Look for numbers whilst walking or on a journey   Ask questions like ‘if I took one away how many would I have   left?‘ or if I add one how many have I got now?   Use magnetic numbers. Put them in order. Miss one out of a   sequence – do they know which one is missing?
