Unit of work - column addition and subtraction - NCETM inspired PowerPoint

(0)
Each lesson follows the same maths lesson structure of: Revisit Address Misconceptions Vocabulary Focus Guided Practice Talk Task Deepen Independent Task The ‘Independent Task’ slide has a ‘Now, Next, Last’ visual to promote children’s independence in completing their tasks. The Powepoint is infused with STEM sentences, different representations, practical activities, fluency, and reasoning tasks. The overall structure of the unit is inspired by the NCETM for Year 4 and some questions and representations are taken from White Rose. There is a real mixture of resources used and combined to create a comprehensive unit that can be delivered straight from this download. The lesson objectives are as follows: Identify place value Use column addition with regrouping Use column addition with regrouping twice Use column addition with regrouping twice Decide on mental or written strategies Solve addition problems Identify the minuend and subtrahend Use column subtraction Use column subtraction Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with one exchange Use column subtraction with two exchanges There are multiple lessons on subtraction with one exchange as this is where I have found children struggle the most within the unit. There are multiple lessons with multiple representations and a variety of challenging questions which extend those who do grasp this concept quickly. #mastery #year4 #addition #subtraction #writtenmethod #columnmethod #exchange ##regroup #NCETM #Whiterose #placevalue

Each lesson follows the structure and has a slide for each step: Revisit Address misconceptions Vocabulary Focus Guided practice Talk task Deepen Independent Practice Next Step Lessons come with accompanying worksheets that are structured into Fluency, Problem-solving and Reasoning tasks. Lessons are also accompanied by next steps which can be stuck into books. The planning is heavily inspired by the NCETM but I have broken the lessons down into my own PowerPoints to ensure the steps taught are very small so all can access. This unit takes on a mastery approach to teaching maths and has been highly effective in my own classroom. Included within the powerpoints are visual representations, small tasks for a ping-pong approach, stem sentences, high-level mathematical vocabulary, now/next/last visuals for SEN learners. #ncetm #unit4 #year4 #mathsmastery =stemsentences #timestables
