In a Year 1 mathematics lesson, students are encouraged to develop their understanding of place value within 50 through a series of engaging exercises. The lesson starts with a 'Fluent in Four' revision activity, which is designed to quickly test and reinforce their arithmetic skills. The children are asked to complete sentences that involve basic operations such as doubling and halving numbers. For instance, they must find the sum of double 6 and half of 8, as well as add 7 to nine. These exercises not only help in reinforcing their addition skills but also in understanding the concepts of doubling and halving.

As part of the same activity, students are challenged to order numbers from greatest to least, which aids in their comprehension of numerical value and sequence. They are also asked to identify and continue a given pattern, further enhancing their number sense. The lesson includes a practical component where they apply their counting skills to determine the number of doughnuts, providing a visual and contextual basis for learning. This activity helps in solidifying their ability to count forwards and backwards within the number range of 50. Group work is incorporated, allowing students to collaborate and learn from one another as they engage with the exercises and share their answers.
