Year 1 - Maths
Composition of numbers 11 to 19
In this unit pupils will explain 11-19 as cardinal and ordinal numbers. They will double and halve numbers 6-9 and use addition and subtraction facts to add and subtract within 20.
You will learn to use knowledge of addition facts within 10 to add within 20.
Addition facts within ten can be applied to addition within 20, e.g. if 3 + 2 is equal to 5 then 13 + 2 is equal to 15. A number line can be used to show the link between addition of one-digit numbers and teen numbers.
Bringing two or more numbers or things together to make a new total. Use this word when showing your method, then check your final answer is reasonable.
Mistake: Children may rely on counting strategies instead of using known facts to add larger numbers. Correction: Make comparisons between addition within 10 and within 20, looking for patterns. Make sure children notice that the ones digit stays the same when we add numbers with the same ones digits such as 3 + 2 and 13 + 2.
