Maths Year 1/2 Spring More Addition & Subtraction

Day 1
Sort additions into 2 groups: those we prefer to calculate by counting on, and those where children would choose place value/number facts.
Further Teaching with Y1
Use the bead bar to show bridging 10 when adding 1-digit numbers.
Group Activities: T with Y1
Y1 -- Add two 1-digit numbers by bridging 10, using either a bead string or beaded line.
Y2 -- Sort and solve additions according to how they might best be solved (counting on, place value or number facts).

Day 2
Add 1--digit numbers of pennies, bridging 10p on a money line.
Further Teaching with Y2
Add 9 to 2-digit numbers by adding 10 then subtracting 1 on a 1 to 100 grid.
Group Activities: T with Y2
Y1 -- Use penny lines to help solve money additions, adding 1–6p or 1–10p.
Y2 -- Repeatedly add 9 on a 1 to 100 grid, starting at 19, and describe the pattern. Some children will work in pairs to add 10, then 9 to 2-digit numbers.

Day 3
Imagine the colours of beads when bridging 10 to find 8 + 3, for example. Discuss which additions bridge 10 and which don’t.
Further Teaching with Y2
Use place value cards then 10p and 1p coins to add pairs of 2-digit numbers (1s less than 10).
Group Activities: T with Y2
Y1 -- Use bead strings to add 5 and 6 to 6, 7, 8 and 9, discussing how the 5 and 6 are split each time. Record bridging 10 on a landmarked line.
Y2 -- Use 10p and 1p coins, or place value cards, to add 2-digit numbers.

Day 4
Use place value cards to add pairs of 2-digit numbers (1s greater than 10). Y1s use bridging to add the 1s.
Further Teaching with Y1
Use 1-digit + 1-digit facts to find 2-digit + 1-digit answers, such as using the answer to 4 + 3 to calculate 14 + 3, 24 + 3.
Group Activities: T with Y1
Use the in-depth problem-solving investigation ‘Domino additions’ as today’s group activity.
Or, use these activities:
Y1 – Refer to addition cards, or recall 1-digit + 1-digit addition facts; use these to find the answers to 2-digit + 1-digit calculations.
Y2 -- Use place value cards to add two 2-digit numbers, discuss if the 1s will make an extra 10 or not. Some children will sort additions into those with answers less/more than 80, because the 1s digits total more than 10.

Day 5
Calculate 5 + 4, 15 + 4, 25 + 4 … 95 + 4 on the 1–100 grid, discussing the pattern.
Further Teaching with Y2
Add 19 on a 1–100 grid by adding 20, then subtracting 1.
Group Activities:
Y1 -- Use dominoes to generate 2-digit plus 1-digit number additions in a pattern. Some children may answer addition number sentences, recognising and using known facts.
Y2 -- Add 19 on the 1–100 grid, by adding 20, then subtracting 1. Some children may add ‘nearly’ numbers using a calculator, look for patterns, predict answers

Day 1
Hold up two pieces of ribbon. Which piece is longer? Measure each using cubes. Compare the two towers of cubes and agree the difference, in cubes, between the two pieces of ribbon. Show on a number line.
Further Teaching with Y2
Say you have 32p and spend 27p. Mark 32p on a 0–£1 penny line. We can count up to find a difference. Mark on 27p, and cross out pennies up to 27p, hop to 30p then to 32p: 3p + 2p is 5p left. Repeat for £23 – £16.
Group Activities: T with Y2

Y2 -- Discover how much money is left by calculating differences using a penny line.

Further Teaching with Y1
Make towers of 12 and 16 cubes. What is the same and what is different? They are the same colour but one is taller. Point to the 4 extra cubes. The difference between 12 and 16 is 4. Show on number line. Repeat with other pairs of towers.
Group Activities: T with Y1
Use the in-depth problem-solving investigation ‘Difference towers’ as today’s group activity.
Or, use these activities:
Y1 -- Find the difference between two towers of cubes.
Y2 -- Calculate the difference between two 2-digit numbers by counting up with Maths Frog, or play ‘snatch the match’: using the same strategy.

Day 3
In pairs, children make two towers of cubes, such that one tower is 2 cubes taller. They count how many cubes in each.
Further Teaching with Y2
Show 62p – 47p using a 0–£1 penny line. Cross out up to 47p. Draw 3 hops: 47 to 50, then 50 to 60 and 60 to 62. Repeat with 85 – 68. Repeat with 61 – 47 on a landmarked line.

Further Teaching with Y2
Discuss whether Frog or partitioning is quicker/ easier to calculate 53 – 47 and 67 – 24.

Day 5
Write 67– 24, 48 – 33 and 86 – 45. Y2s choose one to solve using partitioning. Y2s subtract 10s, Y1s subtract 1s. Y2s show one using Frog.
Further Teaching with Y1
Children identify a fact to calculate 18 – 4, 28 – 4 …‘anythingty’-eight subtract four. Write 27 – 3, 47 – 3 and 97 – 3 on the board. What fact can we use to calculate these?
Group Activities: T with Y1
Y1 -- Represent groups of subtractions on the 100-bead bar. Some children may identify subtraction facts to solve subtractions.
