MATERIALS..
-Copy a number of baseboards onto card and laminate.
-Copy and laminate number cards and equation cards, cut out.
-Copy blank equation cards, cut out ready for children to write their own equations on.
Level 1 - SINGLE NUMBER CARDS...
Count out verbally, and place number of 'counters' on baseboard to match a single number card.
Verbally discuss their own visual representations using the counters on the baseboards...
Verbally discuss the outcomes....
"I put 3 red apples on the tree, then I added 4 green apples. There are 7 apples altogether".
"My ladybug has 12 spots - 5 on one side and 7 on the other."
Level 2 - EQUATION CARDS...
Make visual representations to match the addition equation cards.
Answer the equation cards and write the equation and answers on their own paper.
Make up their own equation cards with answers.
Practise addition / subtraction 'turn-arounds' - start with an addition equation card and answer - find the corresponding subtraction card...eg. 4+8=12 represented on baseboard.... Now - I start with twelve, I take 4 away, I have 8 left - 12-4=8.
EXTENSION
Example...
23 can be represented by 2 baseboards each with 10 'counters' and 3 left over
55 x 3 is represented by 5 baseboards each with 3 'counters'
24 / 6 is represented by 24 'counters' shared into 6 baseboards.
Plastic counters could also be used instead of the 'counters' provided here.
