In the 'Fluent in Four - Revision' activity for Year 2, part of the Summer Term's Week 7 Day 5 curriculum, students are presented with a series of mathematical challenges designed to sharpen their arithmetic skills. The tasks begin with subtraction problems where students must find the difference between two numbers, such as 93 minus sixty-eight and 61 minus 54. These exercises help to reinforce mental arithmetic and promote fluency in basic calculations. Additionally, the activity involves a problem-solving element where students must determine the number of equal groups and the quantity within each group, encouraging them to visualise and draw representations of the problem to aid their understanding.

The learning continues with a practical application of maths in the context of a video game scenario, where students must calculate the difference in points scored by two players, Dennis and Bryan. This real-world connection makes the maths relatable and engaging. The activity also includes a time-telling exercise where students are asked to identify which clock face represents a specific time, such as 'quarter past 5'. This not only tests their ability to read analogue clocks but also helps to solidify their understanding of time increments. Completing the table and calculating the answer further develops their skills in addition and understanding of number relationships. The provided answers and visual aids, such as the correct clock face labelled 'B', support students in verifying their work and comprehending the concepts being taught.
