In a Year 5 mathematics lesson focused on addition and subtraction, students are introduced to the concept of adding two 4-digit numbers that require more than one exchange. The resources provided for this lesson include place value counters, a place value grid, worksheets, and a presentation. Key vocabulary terms such as 'exchange', 'total', and 'place value' are emphasised, and students can access vocabulary cards and definitions to support their understanding. The lesson begins with a starter activity where students recap previous learning and discuss the meaning of 'exchange' in the context of addition.

During the class, students engage in an activity where they use place value counters and the formal written method to add numbers, starting with the ones column and identifying when exchanges are necessary. This hands-on approach is coupled with the practice of verbalising the process, using correct mathematical language to describe the exchanges from ones to tens and hundreds to thousands. The lesson aims to strengthen students' understanding of place value and the mechanics of addition with exchanges. Independent learning is supported by differentiated questions, allowing students to apply the concept at varying levels of complexity. The plenary includes reflective questions to ensure students grasp the relationship between the different methods and comprehend the exchanges made during addition. A 'Give me five' reflection activity concludes the lesson, encouraging students to consider what they have learned, the skills they used, and any challenges they faced, ensuring that the key concepts are solidified in their minds.
