Numeracy: Directions

Leave a comment

We have been learning a lot of non-number numeracy this term and over the past week we have been learning about compass points, vocabulary for giving directions and some angles to move in!! Very impressive altogether. So today, we were ready to put all of this new learning to the test. We went outside and each had a turn of creating a course for someone to navigate, be directed around a course and also supervise a pair directing and navigating!! It was lots of fun and we really trusted one another.

C– Counting: CORE Numbers (Step 4): I can understand 3d numbers. E.g.: Order numbers by their hundreds digit, if the same, order by the tens digit, if the same, order by the units digit;

232, 233, 234

 L– Learn Its: Adding with near doubles (Step 8): Lean on the doubles concept as an anchorage point. 6+8, 5+7, 5+8,

Use the notion of adding 9 being ‘add on 10 then take away 1’. 5+9, 6+9, 7+9;

Revision of the full 2x tables.

 I– It’s Nothing New: x10 (Step 1): I can multiply whole numbers by 10. E.g 13 x 10 = 130; Remember to place a zero on the units end, this moves the digits one place to the left, so this makes the number 10 times bigger.

 C– Calculations: Multiplication (Step 13: 6, 7, 8 & 9 times tables): I can do any Smile Multiplication. E.g.: 80 x 70. Do the tables bit, count the zeros in the question, put the zeros on your answer.
