The Eighties - PowerPoint

In a set of engaging and educational resources designed for Key Stage 1 pupils, the focus is on the concept of Number and Place Value, specifically centred around the numbers from 80 to 90. These resources aim to help children practice reading and recognising these numbers both in numeral form and written as words. The lesson begins with a simple question to jog the students' memories, asking what number follows 79, leading to the introduction of the number 80. The lesson plan encourages interactive learning, with opportunities for students to read numbers aloud and watch a video clip to further cement their understanding of the 'eighties' number range.

Worksheets are provided to reinforce the learning objectives, where students are tasked with identifying what number comes next or before in a sequence, both in numerals and words. For example, they must determine the missing numbers in sequences like 79 ___ 81 or fill in the blanks before and after given numbers such as ___ 84 ___. An additional activity includes matching numerals to their corresponding number words, which not only solidifies their recognition skills but also enhances their understanding of place value. These thoughtfully crafted resources are aimed at building a solid foundation in number sense for young learners.
