Four Operations
Several lessons on the four operations as follows:
-
A lesson on times tables practice using the Marigolds of Magic to give you a helping hand! Also includes a few links to resources that can help with further practice. Thank you Julia Smith for showing me this magical method!
-
A combined lesson on addition and subtraction with fully differentiated activities on both, visual explanations and a codebreaker to tie both parts of the lesson together.
-
Grid multiplication starts with a jumbled-up times tables grid to test the basics. A differentiated task follows two examples using the grid method. Worded questions are available as extension. Answers are included on the PowerPoint.
-
Short multiplication is has the same examples and questions with scaffolding as the grid method lesson.
-
Lattice multiplication, again withe the same examples and questions, but instead using the lattice (or Chinese) method.
-
Divisibility rules (yeah it does!) is a short 'lesson' on putting into practice rules of divisibility
-
Division starts with a reverse times tables grid. There are several examples using the short division method preceding a differentiated main task and a codebreaker.
