Learning objective
Deterministic arithmetic with checked answers. Select and apply an efficient operation, showing enough working to check the result.
Materials & preparation
- One printed learner copy; keep the answer view separate when provided
- Pencil and eraser
- Optional counters or small classroom objects for modelling quantities
- Model and teach
- Solve one different example aloud and show how to check the result. Then use this learner direction: Solve each problem and show your working where needed. Model how to identify the operation before calculating, rather than guessing from the numbers.
- Support
- Make the success criteria visible, allow an independent attempt, and give one targeted cue instead of the answer.
- Stretch
- Ask the learner to justify a method and consider an alternative. Require a claim to be supported by a word, detail, example, or result from the page.
- Check for understanding
- Ask for one independent solution and a separate check of the answer or rule.
