As part of a mathematics lesson tailored for Year 1 pupils during the Summer Term, Week 11, Day 1, children are introduced to a 'Before and after' activity to warm up their numerical thinking. The 'Fluent in Four' revision segment presents a series of exercises designed to boost mental arithmetic skills. One of the tasks involves a two-step calculation where students are asked to double the number 3 and then add half of 8, leading to a solution of 10. This activity encourages children to engage with basic operations and understand the concept of halving and doubling numbers.

Another part of the lesson includes a sequencing challenge where pupils must identify the missing numbers in a sequence that begins with the number 5. The task is to complete the sequence and then perform a simple addition: 5 plus 3, which equals 8. This exercise not only tests their counting skills but also reinforces their understanding of number order and basic addition. Additionally, the children are asked to equate numerical values to coins, enhancing their grasp of equivalence and the use of money in practical situations. These interactive and engaging activities are aimed at solidifying foundational mathematical concepts in young learners.
