In a stimulating maths presentation aimed at Year 1 students during their Summer Term, the class focuses on the concept of place value within 100 and comparing numbers. The session kicks off with a 'Fluent in Four' revision exercise, where pupils are tasked with simple subtraction problems such as '13 – 12' and 'Eighteen – half of eighteen', designed to sharpen their mental arithmetic skills. This is followed by a hands-on activity using Base 10 blocks, where children physically create numbers on place value charts, enhancing their understanding of tens and ones. They are asked to represent the numbers 87 and 12, and then determine which number is larger by comparing the tens and ones columns.

The learning experience is further enriched with a practical exercise where students use cubes to represent numbers and explore various number bonds that add up to the same total. This activity not only reinforces their understanding of addition but also encourages them to recognise different combinations that result in the same sum. Additionally, the presentation includes a measurement activity, asking 'How long is it?', which integrates the concept of length and provides a real-world context to the numerical skills being developed. The lesson is designed to be interactive and engaging, allowing young learners to visualise and manipulate numbers in a variety of ways, thus deepening their comprehension of place value and comparison within 100.
