In this Year 1 maths session, part of the Autumn Term's Week 9 Day 4 curriculum, children are introduced to the concept of comparing statements through various exercises that involve addition and subtraction within 10. The 'Fluent in Four' revision section encourages children to become quick and confident with basic number operations. To facilitate hands-on learning, each child is provided with 10 counters to use as a visual and tactile aid for calculation.

The activities are designed to engage young learners with simple arithmetic problems and comparisons. For instance, children are asked to solve equations like '10 minus 9' and to determine what number added to 3 equals half of 10. They are also presented with practical problems, such as matching a set of stones to the correct bucket based on quantity, and identifying shapes like cubes, circles, and triangles. The use of counters helps children to physically manipulate objects to find the answers, such as calculating '3 plus 4' and understanding the concept of 'less than'. These exercises not only teach mathematical skills but also encourage logical thinking and problem-solving in a fun and interactive way.
