The Four Operations

I am learning to identify the four operations, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division to solve problems.

I know I can do it when I can identify what operation to use to solve a problem.

Today we are looking at the four operations in mathematics:

  • Addition
  • Subtraction
  • Multiplication
  • Division

It is really important to look carefully at the question, when solving mathematical problems.

What is the question asking and what operation do I need to use.

Groups

Multiplying by 10

I am learning to show multiplication as groups.

I know I can do it when I can create arrays to help me solve problems.

Step 1. Watch the story above.

Step 2. Collect and count out 100 objects (eg. toys, pencils, pasta) and place into a pile.

This set will be the 100 ants in the story.

Step 3. Re-read the story, as you read stop at each place where the ants are shown in their marching order and move the objects to match the story.

Step 4. In your book write a number sentence for each new array from the story. For example:

  • 100 = 1 x 100
  • 100 = 2 x 50
  • 100 = ?
  • 100 = ?
  • 100 = ?

Step 5. After reading, Select a number sentence from the story and draw an array to show it.

Challenge

Write your own versions of the story with different numbers and creatures. Record all the ways the creatures could reach the target food:

Examples could be:

  • Twenty Toads
  • Forty Fantails
  • Thirty Thirsty Tigers
  • A Dozen Dinosaurs.
