Place value within 100 - Partitioning numbers - Presentation - Starter

In a mathematics presentation designed for Year 1 students during the Summer Term, Week 8, Day 5, the focus is on understanding place value within 100, specifically partitioning numbers. The session starts with a 'Fluent in Four' revision exercise, encouraging students to quickly recall basic number facts. They are tasked with determining what is one more and one less than the number 53, prompting them to engage with the concept of incrementing and decrementing within the numerical sequence.

The presentation continues with activities that require students to complete tables by matching pictures to numbers and writing the numbers in word form, for example, representing the number 5 as 'Five'. This helps reinforce their understanding of number names and their corresponding symbols. Additionally, students are asked to solve simple arithmetic problems, such as finding the result of doubling 5 and then subtracting 3, and identifying the number that, when 8 is subtracted from it, equals 5. These exercises are designed to build the pupils' confidence in basic calculations and their comprehension of numerical relationships.
