The "Inverse Operations" worksheet is a comprehensive resource designed to enhance Year 6 students' understanding of addition and subtraction of whole numbers exceeding four digits, utilising formal written methods. The worksheet underscores the importance of rounding and checking calculations for accuracy, which is essential for achieving precision in mathematical problem-solving. A variety of differentiated worksheets and teaching slides are provided as resources to cater to the varying levels of student proficiency. The lesson emphasises key vocabulary such as "inverse operations," "accurate," "accuracy," and the fundamental operations of addition and subtraction. Through a series of activities, students are encouraged to apply the commutative law to addition, understand its non-applicability to subtraction, and select the correct inverse operation to solve one-step, two-step, and multi-step word problems.

As part of the reasoning and problem-solving segment, children continue to delve into inverse operations by completing pyramid puzzles and tackling questions about unknown numbers. These exercises not only solidify their grasp of the concept but also challenge them to apply their knowledge to real-world scenarios. Key questions prompt students to consider the sensibility of their answers, explore the inverse relationships between addition and subtraction, and reflect on the accuracy of their solutions. By engaging with this worksheet, students are expected to develop fluency in applying inverse operations to a range of problems, thereby deepening their mathematical reasoning skills and enhancing their ability to solve complex problems accurately.
