The Four Operations

In order to prepare the children for Year 3, we will be regularly reviewing the four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) throughout the summer term.

This week we will be focussing on word problems. 

Tuesday - multiplication word problems

Wednesday - subtraction word problems 

Thursday - multiplication word problems

Friday - division word problems 

We will be encouraging the children to use strategies that they have already learnt to answer these problems:

Addition and Subtraction - column method

Multiplication - holding fingers up and pinching the times tables

Division - sharing and grouping diagrams
