Mathematics development involves providing children with opportunities to practise and improve  solve one-step problems involving multiplication and division, by calculating the answer  calculate mathematical statements for multiplication and division within the multiplication tables and their skills in counting , calculating simple and problems, and to using concrete objects, pictorial representations and arrays with the support of a teacher write them using the multiplication (x), division (÷) and equals signs describe shapes, spaces, and measures. Children should be able to: Children should be able to: Find missing numbers or symbols in a calculation: 4 x __ = 20, __ ÷ 10 = 3 Early Learning Goal 11: Numbers Use practical apparatus, arrays and images to help solve multiplication and division problems Anna has 3 boxes of cakes. Each box contains 5 cakes. How many cakes does she have altogether? Show how [Expected outcomes] Children count reliably with numbers from 1 to 20, place them in order and you worked this out. say which is one more or one less than a given number. Using quantities and objects, they such as: NCETM Activity B add and subtract two single-digit numbers and count on or back to find the answer. They solve . Ben had 5 football stickers. His friend Tom gave him 5 more, how many does he have  BBC KS1 Starship Number Jumbler game, a simple animation where children choose the missing operation problems, including doubling, halving and sharing. altogether? sign in the calculation. . Share 12 sweets between two children. How many do they each have?  Write the calculation: give the children different pictures of groups of items or arrays. They then have to write EYFS Profile exemplification for the level of learning and development expected at the end of the . Find half of and double a number or quantity: the multiplication sentence to match the picture. 2p, 5p and 10p coins could be used for this activity. The EYFS Mathematics . 16 children went to the park at the weekend. Half that number went swimming. How many children can write down how many of each coin they have and the total amount. Using coins, the children could also write division calculations to match the images. Examples of doubling, halving and repeated addition for ‘expected’ achievement related to ELG:11 children went swimming?  show that multiplication of two numbers can be done in any order (commutative) and division of one taken from exemplification . I think of a number and halve it. I end up with 9, what was my original number? number by another cannot No examples of these aspects in the ‘expected’ exemplification for ELG 11 NCETM Actvity A - Noah’s Ark Children should be able to: Use their knowledge of triangles of numbers to show related number facts. e.g. If 6 x 2 Give the children the opportunity to count in twos, finding the total number of animals on board the Ark. As the children gain fluency counting in twos, start at different numbers and perhaps = 12 then 2 x 6 = 12 and 12 ÷ 6 = 2. changing from using concrete objects, to jumping in twos along a number line. Further uses could NCETM Activity C be to find the number of groups of two on the ark, again initially using tangible objects, then  Triangle of numbers: a good activity to use as a starter or plenary, demonstrating the commutativity of moving on to using a number line and demonstrating repeated subtraction. multiplication. It can be used to demonstrate one number fact and the children can suggest the others.  Function box: reinforcing the relationship of division being the inverse of multiplication. To build up to this online activity, a function box could be made and used as a visual resource in class. For example, model how a number goes in and doubles, but put the number back through the machine it will halve. There are lots of different ways to use the function box in class to deepen the understanding of the relationship between multiplication and division.  Class number sentence: using digit cards and x and ÷ and = cards. Get the children to show how we can take one known fact and find others using those numbers. As the children move the digits around, they will demonstrate their understanding of using and applying their tables knowledge. What numbers can we move around in a division sentence? Can they spot the relationship between multiplication and division? Ensure they really understand the concept behind this activity, by encouraging them to show you with practical Activity B - Arrays powerpoint apparatus This resource is based in ‘PowerPoint’. The teacher can set simple multiplication word problems  solve problems involving multiplication and division, using materials, arrays, repeated addition, mental for the children to solve. It is also useful for modelling arrays and how to write a multiplication methods, and multiplication and division facts, including problems in contexts sentence. Children should be able to: Use various methods and apparatus to help them solve word problems such as: Activity C - W hole class counting sessions There are 10 lollies in a bag. Charlie needs 30 lollies for his party. How many bags does he need to buy? Show how you worked this out. For this activity the children themselves are the objects to count. You can count in twos to find the NCETM Activity D number of shoes in a group, count fingers on hands in fives and number of toes in tens. To  TES word problems with differentiated questions: resources submitted by a Year 2 teacher, focusing on extend the children you can ask them to model how to write down this calculation or alter it to problem solving using multiplication. practise their division facts from the 2, 5 and 10 times tables.  BBC Class Clips: problem solving - how many chairs? Use multiplication facts to help the Chuckle Brothers Activity D - NRICH Share Bears: organise their tables ready for their guests’ arrival. A lovely investigation involving the children in division by sharing, and early introduction to the  Give the children a multiplication or division fact. Can they write a word problem to match it? Now swap concept of remainders. calculations with a partner and talk about how you would solve the problem.  recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 2, 5 and 10 multiplication tables, including recognising odd and even numbers Children should be able to: Recognise a multiple of 2, 5 or 10 and use their knowledge of multiplication facts to find corresponding division facts. They can say which numbers are odd and which are even. e.g. 2 x 5 = 10, show me three more number facts using these numbers. Is 34 an odd number? How do you know? NCETM activity A:  Multiplication tables - pelmanism style matching cards. Find the pairs of cards showing the product and multiplication fact in a timed activity.  Counting stick: using a metre stick with ten divisions use sticky notes to mark multiples of 2, 5 or 10. Practise counting on and back from different numbers. As the children become more fluent, remove more sticky notes and see how they can recall multiples starting at different points counting on and back.

Equipment: every day objects: e.g. cars, chairs, bears, children, fingers, gloves, toy cars, pairs of socks. Also ‘maths’ objects e.g. counters, Model/demonstrate as a rectangular ‘array’ using the cakes or beads (fold bead string) or counters (left). Also show as a rectangular ‘array’ (right) as ‘three rows of 5’ i.e. 5 x 3 =15

Use the ITP Multiplication Facts to

demonstrate these processes and also commutativity.

School examples of division School examples of division Example from division exemplification (NCETM) Example from division exemplification (NCETM) If we share out these cakes so everyone has one each, how many will be left over? If everyone Can we share out these cakes fairly? How shall we do it? . Share 12 sweets between two children. How many do they each have? Other example: How many sticks of 4 cubes can you make from 20 cubes? OR If 20 cubes are shared equally has two cakes, how many children will be able to have cakes today? If we put two cakes on each plate, how many plates do we need? between 4 people, how many cubes do they each get?

GROUPING Show 20 cubes. Divide the cubes into groups of 4 i.e. one group of 4, two groups of 4 and so on…..

Model this on a bead bar/string and demonstrate recording of one group of 4 cubes on a number line….. And 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 another group of 4 cubes etc. So, 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 4 x 5 = 20 so 20 ÷ 4 = 5 i.e. 20 divided into groups of 4 equals 5.

Strategy: begin to recognise sharing equally; also repetitive addition or subtraction of groups of Strategy: begin to recognise sharing equally; also repetitive addition of ‘groups’ of the same size 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 12 the same size i.e. grouping ÷4 1 1 1 1 1 Recording: teacher demonstration of appropriate pictorial recording where appropriate.

Demonstrate on number line. EQUAL SHARING Show 12 sweets. Share the sweets equally between two i.e. one for you and Equipment: every day objects, counters, fingers Vocabulary: groups, share, left over, half one for me – we’ve used 2 of the sweets. Model this on a bead bar/string and demonstrate Equipment: every day objects, counters, fingers recording of one group of 2 sweets on a number line….. Another one for you and one for me – 0 4 8 12 16 20 we’ve used 2 more of the sweets. Model this on a bead bar/string and demonstrate recording of

the second group of 2 sweets on a number line….. etc. EQUAL SHARING use same model as above. e.g. We have 20 cubes. Share the cubes equally between each ALSO: use as above with GROUPING e.g. We have 12 sweets. If each child has 2 sweets, how person – we’ve used 4 of the cubes. Model this on a bead bar/string and demonstrate recording of one group of 4 many children will have 2 sweets? i.e. two for you – that’s one group of two – that’s one person - cubes on a number line….. Another one for each person etc. So, 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 4 x 5 = 20 so 20 ÷ 4 = 5 i.e. 20 model on bead bar and record on a number line as above. shared equally between 4 equals 5.

Find missing numbers or symbols in a calculation:  ÷ 10 = 3 Represent e.g. using the Singapore bar:

The bar above represents the unknown quantity.

If we divide the bar into 10 equal sections and we know that each section has a value of 3. 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 Grouping ITP So, 3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 = 30 OR 3 x 10 = 30 So the value of the empty box here  ÷ 10 = 3 must be 30 because 30 ÷ 10 = 3 OR as above but divided into GROUPS of 10.

If there are 25 guests coming to the party, what is the total amount of juice Benji Solve missing number problems, e.g. 6(a + 12) = 144 needs? multiply out the equation: 6a + 72 = 144 You could give the children an approximate equivalence between miles and kilometres, for example1.6km is balance by -72: 6a + 72 – 72 = 144 – 72 approximately 1 mile. Then they multiply this amount to find approximate equivalences for other miles, for 6a = 72 example 5 miles, 8 miles, 10 miles, 14 miles. The children could make a spider diagram for this and other Use known division facts: a = 72 ÷ 6 equivalences. a = 12

Find perimeters and areas of rectangles using the appropriate formulae, e.g. a square field has sides of 24.75m. What is its perimeter? What is its area? Measurement  solve problems involving the calculation and conversion of units of measure, using decimal notation up to three decimal places where appropriate  convert between miles and kilometres When working on multiplication and division and/or measurement there are opportunities to You could give the children lengths of one side of different regular polygons, for example, pentagon, octagon, make connections between them by solving problems such as; decagon, dodecagon and ask them to find their perimeters by multiplying each length by the number of sides the  1 pint = 0.57 litres, how many litres in 8 pints? How many pints in 12 litres? polygon has.  Dan was driving between two cities in France. The sign said the distance was 185km. You could also give the children the lengths of different sized rectangles and ask them to find their areas, for He wanted to know what that was in miles. How can he find out? How many miles is example, a rectangle 28cm by 12cm. it? Set problems involving time and money for the children to use, for example: Statistics  Samir spent 45 minutes completing his homework. It took Pete three times as long. How long did it take Pete  calculate and interpret the mean as an average to complete his homework? When working on multiplication and division and/or statistics there are opportunities to  It took Carol 1 ½ hours to drive from Oxford to London. It took Lorna a third of that time. How long did it take make connections between them, for example: Lorna to travel to London? Solve problems, e.g. find the mean monthly temperature for Reykjavik, Iceland  Harry is given £3.75 a week as pocket money. He is saving it to buy a computer game. How much will he

This and division, for example in the introduction of the Key Stage 2 Programme of Study it will include the location and characteristics of a range of the world’s most significant human and physical states that pupils should be taught to develop their techniques, including their control and features. Children could, for example, find out about the currencies used in a selection of countries. They could their use of materials, with creativity, experimentation and an increasing awareness of then make up a currency converter using mental calculation strategies and then check using multiplication, for different kinds of art, craft and design. This could include designing and creating life size example: models of, for example a Barbara Hepworth sculpture or a Van Gogh painting where the £1= 1.20 Euros children need to find realistic measurements and then scale them down using division. £2 = 2.40 Euros Geography £3 = 3.60 Euros Within the geography curriculum there are opportunities to connect with multiplication and £4 = 4.80 Euros division, for example in the introduction of the Key Stage 2 Programme of Study it states £5 = 6 Euros that pupils should extend their knowledge and understanding beyond the local area to include the United Kingdom and Europe, North and South America. This will include the location and characteristics of a range of the world’s most significant human and physical features. Work on multiplication and division could include converting between miles and kilometres and vice versa when looking at distances between countries or famous locations, making currency converters for pounds stirling and the currency in the country they are investigating. See, for example:  Mathematics and geography History Within the history curriculum, there are opportunities to connect with multiplication and division, for example in the introduction of the Key Stage 2 Programme of Study it states that ‘in planning to ensure the progression described above through teaching the British, local and world history outlined below, teachers should combine overview and depth studies to help pupils understand both the long arc of development and the complexity of specific aspects of the content’. The history curriculum requires that pupils should ‘compare aspects of life in different periods’, suggesting comparisons between Tudor and Victorian periods, for example. Scale models could be one way of learning about life in different periods. See, for example:  The Tudors  The Victorians  The Ancient Egyptians  The Ancient Greeks
