Well, it is certainly going to hot up over the coming weeks as we look forward to a warm and sunny summer. Before then, however, there is still some important maths to do and we have just the resources to help along the way. This week we are concentrating on addition and subtraction, moving towards the standard written methods in ways which should help understanding the standard method when it is introduced. Of course, success with this depends on good mental arithmetic skills so there is still plenty of this included. In summary, this week we are aiming to: 1. round numbers to the nearest whole ten 2.  add and subtract multiples of ten 3. move towards written addition 4. subtraction with jottings 5. writing money in pounds 6. improve mental arithmetic The activities that follow are just a small sample of the wide selection we have available.
