Year 1 Maths Home Learning Week beginning 8th February 2021

Hi Year One,

I hope you are all okay at home. I really enjoyed talking to many of you on the phone last week. We have reached the final week of this half-term - another week closer to being back together in the classroom again!

Keep sending me your wonderful work. It is brilliant to see so many of you working hard at home. Remember to send me an email should you have any questions or require any further support or help with your learning at home. We have our class zoom on Monday. This week, we will be doing some maths together, more details on Monday’s lesson below.

This week, we will be continuing with addition and subtraction and consolidating all of our learning from this half-term. There will be do now activities to practise our number bonds, as well as some counting in 2s and 10s. We will be applying our addition and subtraction strategies and reasoning skills to solve lots of different problems. I look forward to hearing how you get on! Speak to you soon.

Monday

Today’s lesson will be live on zoom at 10am. We will be finding number bonds, partitioning and recording equations. You will need a pencil and some paper. I look forward to seeing you!

Tuesday

Do now: Count in 2s - use the video to help.

Today, we are going to record equations for fact families. Have a look at the ten frame below. What is it showing? How many red counters are there? How many yellow counters are there? How many counters are there altogether? Look at the equations. These are the addition and subtraction facts in this family.

Look at the ten frame below. Can you write the number facts represented in the ten frame? Have a go now.

Let’s check. Look at the equations below.

I would like you to write four equations, two addition and two subtraction, using the ten frames below just like we have done together. Remember, we know addition is commutative which means we can change the order of our numbers (the parts) and still get the same answer (the whole). The answer in our addition equations is the same and it is the largest number.

Are the answers the same in our subtraction equations? The answers are not the same. In our subtraction equations today, we must make sure we begin with the largest number (the whole) and subtract the parts.

Send a picture of your work so that I can see how you have got on and give you some feedback.

Wednesday

Do now: Record part-whole models for all of the number bonds to 6. Look at the image below to help. How many more can you record?

Today, we are going to build on our learning from yesterday. We were recording fact families. Look at the ten frames below. Can you record four equations, two addition and two subtraction?

Super, now check your equations below.

Now I would like to record the facts using the numbers in the houses below.

Please send a picture of your equations so I can see how you are getting on.

Thursday

Do now: Let’s count in 10s together. Try counting forwards and backwards to 120.

Today, we are going to compare number equations. Look at the ten frames below. Which statement correctly compares the number equations? How can we find out? We need to solve the equations and compare the answers.

What do you think? 3 + 4 is equal to 4 + 3. They are both equal to 7.

Try this one:

How did you work it out? 5 + 6 is equal to 11, we can see this by looking at the ten frames. 3 + 9 is equal to 12. Therefore, 5 + 6 is less than 3 + 9.

I would like you to have a go at identifying the correct statement in the following images below. Will the statement be ‘is more than’, ‘is less than’ or ‘is equal to’?

Now see if you can solve this problem.

Friday

Do now: Record the number equations, two addition and two subtraction, represented in the ten frames below.

Today, we are going to use our addition and subtraction skills to do some problem-solving and reasoning. Have a go at solving the problems below. Remember to send me a picture of your work so I can see how you are doing.
