Multiplication and Division

We are learning a lot about multiplication and division.

We have started by recapping the times tables that we started learning in Year 2.

The 2 times table

2  4  6  8  10  12  14  16  18  20  22  24

The 5 times table

5  10  15  20  25  30  35  40  45  50  55  60

The 10 times table

10  20  30  40  50  60  70  80  90  100  110  120

Now we are learning our 3s, 4s and 8s!

Addition and Subtraction

In this unit we are looking at how to add and subtract numbers.

To do this we are using our knowledge of place value that we worked on in the unit before.

We are building on our prior learning in year 1 and 2 and starting to use formal method for addition and subtraction. We will use our knowledge of number bonds to 10 to support us with quick methods of mentally adding and subtracting 2 digit numbers. We will then progress to using practical resources to solve 3 digit addition and subtraction problems including borrowing and exchanging to cross the 10s barrier. Once we are confident in using practical resources, we will begin to use formal methods to add and subtract a range of 3 digit numbers.

Here are some examples of this below...

Place Value

Our first unit is about place value.

We will be learning the value of 2 and 3-digit numbers.

We will be looking at how to partition those numbers.

Here is an example of what we will be looking at in this unit
