Learning goals

  • We are learning to use inverse relationships between addition and subtraction to find unknown values using different strategies.
  • We are learning to use counting-on and partitioning to understand the connection between addition and subtraction.
  • We are learning to solve problems involving modelling addition, subtraction, equal sharing and grouping, using different strategies.
  • We are learning to recall addition facts to 20 and apply to related subtraction facts using a range of strategies.
  • We are learning to use a range of mental and written strategies to solve simple addition and subtraction problems.
  • We are learning to use number sentences and partitioning to demonstrate the connection between addition and subtraction.
  • We are learning to recall addition and subtraction facts to 20 and to develop mental strategies for larger numbers.
  • We are learning to use a range of mental strategies to solve simple addition and subtraction problems.
  • We are learning to find unknown quantities in number sentences involving addition and subtraction, using the properties of numbers and operations.
  • We are learning to find unknown quantities in number sentences involving addition and subtraction and identify equivalent number sentences involving addition and subtraction.
