Kit Kats and Maltesers

Maths Planning

Term 1

2 of 9

Teacher Notes:

For both Kit Kats and Maltesers:

Walt: Understand part-whole subtraction with 2 and 3 digit numbers

  • On website: A short video that shows how to subtract double digit numbers. Students can watch this as often as they need as a reminder of the best strategies.
  • The activity supports the video - double digit and triple digit subtraction problems. Work on these problems in pairs or alone and then we will work through them as a group.
  • Provide maths books this week and show students how to best use a maths book.

Group session:

  • Need: My whiteboard and marker. Students need maths books, pencils to do working out with me.
  • Start with only double digits eg: 84 - 42.
    • Place value chat - tens and ones.
    • Start by identifying how much is in the tens and ones columns (40 and 2)
    • Do not touch the 84 - many students are mistaken by that.
    • 84 - 2 = 82. 82 - 40 = 42.

  • If it’s clear that this is easy, move on to 3 digit sub. Break the 1000 if they are confident to.
  • Check that students are confident to count up and down in tens and hundreds
  • Check that they can count up/down in tens past the hundreds or thousands point.
  • Write a set of new problems on the board for them to work through together: see another group and come back to see how they went

Second group session: Use materials: Ones, tens, hundreds blocks and place value houses.

Lesson Name: Week 3

3 of 9

Teacher Notes:

For both Kit Kats and Maltesers:

Walt: Count backwards and forwards in tens, hundreds and ones confidently

  • Check that every student has their own maths book and keeps it in tray.

Main goals:

  • We are able to answer questions quickly like: 90-10, 80-10, 90-30
  • We are able to break the 100 when adding and subtracting in tens eg: 120-30, 110-20, 80 + 40
  • We are able to add and subtract tens and ones eg: 82-20, 92-30, 42-10, 52-20

Kit Kats are working on all 3 whereas Maltesers are mostly focussing on breaking the hundred or thousand - what comes next?

See Maltesers first thing on Monday

Strand: Release teacher to teach time and measurement this term

Strand: Whole class lesson Friday afternoon:

  • Bar graphs - a large, visual presentation of it. Use the large roll of paper on wall. Survey the class: what are your fave fruits out of: strawberry, watermelon, orange, mango. Cut out large bits of paper - stack it up on the bar graph - explain the x and y axes. Keep it basic. STICK ON WALL.
  • Next: Students get to make their own bar graphs. Set up slides write graphs for them to complete. Teach students how to fill in a tally chart when they do their own surveying. Put data on bar graphs!

Lesson Name: Week 4

4 of 9

Teacher Notes:

For both Kit Kats and Maltesers:

WALT: Work out multiplication questions using our knowledge of 2, 5 and 10 times tables

PRACTICE

  • Splitting to add and sub eg: 29 + 7 : 30 + 6 (making a tidy ten)
  • Continue to practice counting back and forth in tens and hundreds. Eg: 90-10, 80-10, 90-30 and 93-10, 56-20, 47-30….
  • We are able to break the 100 when adding and subtracting in tens eg: 120-30, 110-20, 80 + 40

Example for the WALT:

3 x 8 is the same as:

2x8: 16 + 1 x 8: 8.

So, 16 + 8: 24

WEDNESDAY: Continue tally/bar graph presentation from week 4 and 20 mins Maths Whizz while I Gloss

Strand: Release teacher to teach time and measurement this term

Strand: Bar graphs and tally charts

Whole class lesson: Tues and Weds. The follow ups can be completed week 5 afternoons during Glossing:

This week: Focus on creating bar graphs and understanding how to line up with the y axes numbers, labelling, how to read and answer questions for other people’s bar graphs.

Lesson Name: Week 5

5 of 9

Teacher Notes:

For both Kit Kats and Maltesers:

WALT: Work out multiplication questions using our knowledge of 2, 5 and 10 times tables

WALT: Use the bloglog and the new ‘practice work’ sheet.

New Bloglog and practice work sheet:

  • Teach class how to access bloglog, new practice work sheet and the weekly presentation
  • Teach whole class step by step how to enter URL into bloglog.
  • Teach class how to create a maths photos folder on drive and how to link these photos to the bloglog.

PRACTICE

  • Splitting to add and sub eg: 29 + 7 : 30 + 6 (making a tidy ten)

Example for the WALT:

3 x 8 is the same as:

2x8: 16 + 1 x 8: 8.

So, 16 + 8: 24

Use materials to show grouping eg: 3 groups of 4 is 3x4

Strand: Release teacher to teach time and measurement this term

Taulagi on Monday: Time: 24 hours and 60 minutes.

Lesson Name: Week 7

6 of 9

Teacher Notes:

For both Kit Kats and Maltesers:

WALT: Solve multiplication problems by using our knowledge of other times tables

WALT: Solve division problems by sharing equally

Practice work, bloglog and commenting on a buddy’s presentation:

  • Show them the new weekly tabs on practice worksheet - don’t do week 7’s, do week 8!
  • Reminders on how to put work up on bloglog
  • Show class how to write a quality blog comment on a buddy’s maths presentation: 1: Something good 2: critique 3: tell them how to fix it

Example for the multiplication:

3 x 8 is the same as:

2x8: 16 + 1 x 8: 8.

So, 16 + 8: 24. Materials: Use animal strips to show grouping

Example for the division:

Use COUNTERS so that they understand the concept of splitting numbers equally into groups.

After they have a clear understanding with materials, show them how you flip the division backwards - “what times 3 equals 12? 4.”

Strand: Release teacher to teach time and measurement this term

Taulagi on Monday: Time - activity is linked on the red bar on top of maths page

Lesson Name: Week 8

7 of 9

Teacher Notes:

For both Kit Kats and Maltesers:

WALT: Solve division problems by sharing equally

WALT: solve multiplication problems using a repeated addition strategy

Practice work, bloglog and commenting on a buddy’s presentation:

  • Buddy comments on maths presentation: More discussion around how to write a quality comment and what’s needed. Show good student’s examples.
  • More chat around how to link URL on bloglog.
  • Make sure you click onto week 9 practice sheet tab this week!

Example for the multiplication:

3 x 8 is the same as:

2x8: 16 + 1 x 8: 8.

So, 16 + 8: 24. Materials: Use animal strips to show grouping

Example for the division:

Use COUNTERS so that they understand the concept of splitting numbers equally into groups.

After they have a clear understanding with materials, show them how you flip the division backwards - “what times 3 equals 12? 4.”

  • Bring in fractions - ½ the counters means split them in half. ⅓ of counters is splitting into equal thirds, ¼ or ‘quarters’ and so on.

Strand: Release teacher to teach time and measurement this term

Taulagi on Monday: MEASUREMENT - LENGTH

Lesson Name: Week 9

8 of 9

Teacher Notes:

For both Kit Kats and Maltesers:

WALT: Make tidy numbers to solve addition problems

WALT: Add and subtract decimals

Part whole addition:

  • This is more of a revision - seeing if they remember to use this strategy when solving all addition problems. Eg: 8 + 3 = 11 (make a tidy ten first then add 1), 17 + 4 ...17 + 3= 20, 20+1= 21.
  • Materials: Use tens and ones blocks.

Decimals!!!

  • Understand that: a ‘whole’ is 1.
  • Ten 0.1’s make a whole which is 1. So 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.4
  • 0.9 + 0.1 = not 0.10 it is 1!
  • 0.1 is the same as 1/10. 0.2 is 2/10.
  • Materials: Use lego blocks and pizza fraction as example. Also use one and tens blocks and coins $$$$
  • 0.1 - the 0 is in the ones place and the 1 is in the TENTHS. Then hundredths.
  • 1 is actually 1.0

Next step in week 11: Learning that 0.9 + 0.2 = 1.1

Lesson Name: Week 10
