The Sixties - PowerPoint

Engaging with numbers can be a delightful experience for KS1 students, and "The Sixties" PowerPoint presentation is a perfect tool for introducing the concept of number and place value. The focus of this resource is to help young learners practice reading and recognising numbers from 60 to 70, both in numerals and written words. The presentation prompts students to identify what number comes after 59, setting the stage for a journey through the sixties. Interactive elements such as a song about numbers in the sixties are included to make learning more enjoyable and memorable.

As the lesson progresses, students are encouraged to read numbers out loud, reinforcing their understanding and confidence in dealing with the number sequence. The PowerPoint slides systematically present the numbers from 60 to 70, allowing students to visualise and vocalise each one. Additionally, worksheets are provided to test comprehension, where students are asked to identify the numbers that come before and after certain numerals. To further solidify their grasp of the number sequence, learners are tasked with matching numerals to the correct number words, enhancing both their reading and numerical skills in a fun and interactive manner.
