This week we have been using our addition and subtraction skills to help us solve more complicated problems that have two steps to solve them. The children have used their knowledge of addition and subtraction to solve these. At home try adding and subtracting multiples of 10 to or from a number. For example 74-40. The children should know that 40 is 4 tens so 70-40=30 and 74-40=34. You could also try counting forwards and backwards in 10s and in 1s over tricky boundaries: Count back 7 from 52. Next week we will be revising our formal methods for addition and subtraction and also counting on or back from a given number.
