Maths Resource Description
This worksheet is designed to support Year 2 students in their understanding of basic mathematical operations and concepts related to position and direction, as part of the Summer Term curriculum for Week 3, Day 5. The worksheet includes a variety of exercises that challenge students to apply their skills in different contexts. The first section, titled 'Fluent in Four - Revision', presents arithmetic problems such as doubling the number 49 and adding it to half of 0, resulting in the answer 98. Another problem requires students to add 37 to 58, yielding a sum of 95. Further exercises involve calculating the total number of marbles if a certain number are distributed evenly across a set number of jars.
The second part of the worksheet concentrates on fractions, asking students to find half of several numbers, such as 8, 12, and 18, with the answers being 4, 6, and 9 respectively. The final section shifts focus to describing movement, where students must determine the number of squares a dog and a bee move, and whether they move forwards or backwards. The worksheet provides an answer key for this section, indicating that the dog moves 3 squares backwards and the bee moves 2 squares backwards. This practical application of mathematics helps to reinforce the students’ understanding of direction and enhance their problem-solving abilities.
