Year 3 - Maths
Securing place value to 100 and applying to addition and subtraction
In this unit pupils will use known facts to find multiples of ten that compose 100 and use known facts to find complements to 100. They will add and subtract multiples of ten, bridging 100.
You will learn to represent 3-digit multiples of 10 in different ways.
3-digit multiples of ten can be expressed as a number of tens. 3-digit multiples of ten can be expressed as a number of hundreds and tens.
Exactly the same amount or value. Use this word when showing your method, then check your final answer is reasonable.
Mistake: Pupils should not be encouraged to think about 'adding a zero' to the 2-digit numbers. Correction: Make careful use of the stem sentences and representations to make sure that pupils are clear that e.g. 12 tens is equal to 120.
