Learning to practice saying the number before and after numbers on a number line or track. count on is important for developing addition skills, otherwise children will be too reliant on counting all, i.e. counting the first set again, rather than counting on from the first set. 4 Y1.N.1 Read, write and 2 1 Children are likely to Until children know pairs to interpret mathematical statements involving addition (+), subtraction ( ) and equals (=) signs Use number facts and concrete objects to solve simple word problems. answer the question correctly only if they know that 2 goes with 3 to make 5 as there is no printed 5 by heart (which requires regular practice), encourage them to use their fingers, e.g. hold up five fingers on one Y1.N.2 Represent and use image to help them.

Lots of practice with supporting images, which children can later imagine, can be very helpful, e.g. pegs on coat hangers, but also fingers.

Some doubles to double 5. may not understand the word double and so add the fingers. Look to see if they are counting all eight fingers, or count on from the first four fingers, or just recognise the quantity as eight.

When counting on, some children for children to start reciting numbers from starting points other than 1. Adding 2 beads to 15 beads, and focusing may say 15, 16, rather than on 1 more, then 2 more, can saying the next number help to prevent children from 16, then 17. saying the first number when counting on so that they end up with an answer 1 less than the correct answer. 10 Y1..3 Given a number, 9 1 1 less is more difficult Ensure that children have identify one more and one less Given a number, identify one more and one less, any number up to 20. than 1 more as children are often less familiar with the number before a given number than the number lots of opportunities to count backwards. Stop occasionally and ask for the next number in the after it. backwards count. Build up a number track by pegging 10 to a washing line, and asking children for the number before 10, then before 9 and so on.

Sort shapes into two separate hoops, then show children a shape that belongs in both, and model how we can overlap the hoops so that it is in both sets.

Make each teen number using a group of ten objects and single objects, pointing out how the ten stays the same, but we add an extra single object. one more and one less, any number up to 20. 14 Y1..1 Count to and across More than 20 1 Watch out for children who Show children a group of 20 100, forwards and backwards, beginning with 0 or 1, or from any given number Estimate a set of objects and count to check how many (up to 50). count rather than estimate! Do children have a sense of what a set of 20 items looks like? objects then show, one at a time, other different-sized groups of identical objects. Ask children whether they think each group has fewer than 20, or more than 20, using the initial group as a benchmark. 15 Y1..2 Count, read and write 30 1 As the bees are arranged Show children how to cross numbers to 100 in numerals; count in multiples of twos, fives and tens Estimate a set of objects and count to check how many (up to 50). randomly, some children may miscount and give an answer close to 30. If the answer is much less/more, one bee out at a time to keep track of the count.
