Maths – Column addition

Thursday 11 September 2025

We’ve started the year reviewing column addition. What great mathematicians we have in our class!

Today we have been adding two numbers using equipment to support our understanding about what happens when the column sum is greater than 9.

Help at home – play schools! Ask your child to be the teacher and ‘teach you’ column addition.  They might want to make paper tens and ones or draw them. Please let me know if they have been a great teacher and I can reward them with a golden ticket!
