Year Two Spring Term

Aimed at primary children from six to seven years of age, this resource supports learning about number, place value, addition and subtraction. Two detailed weekly plans contain differentiated activities, guided and independent tasks and a list of resources required for each lesson. Objectives covered in the lessons include:

Week One

  • Mark 2-digit numbers on a landmarked line
  • Compare numbers using the symbols < and >
  • Use ordinal numbers in context up to 10th and beyond
  • Use knowledge of order of numbers and properties of number (e.g. odd/even, multiples to describe/sort numbers)
  • Solve logic problems; round 2-digit numbers to nearest multiple of ten

Week Two

  • Use pairs to ten to find the complement to the next multiple of ten
  • Use place value to add and subtract
  • Mental addition and subtraction of a single digit to/from a 2-digit number by bridging multiples of ten using partitioning, near multiples and place value
  • Understand that addition can be done in any order, but not subtraction
  • Sort calculations as to whether number facts or place value can be used to help identify the useful number fact
