The key takeaways are that maths in Year 1 focuses on number skills, measurement, geometry and statistics. It aims to develop fluency in fundamentals and applying maths concepts to solve problems.

The main components of maths taught in Year 1 are number skills, measurement, geometry and statistics. Number skills includes counting, recognizing numerals and writing numbers.

The school approaches teaching maths by ensuring use of correct mathematical language, symbols and contexts. It models concepts for the class and encourages independent and partner work with support. Manipulatives are used to build foundations.

Maths in Year 1

Aims of this morning’s meeting


• To gain an understanding of the National
Maths curriculum and expectations.
• To take part in a variety of Maths activities.
• To get an insight into how Maths is taught at.
• To take away some ideas to support your
children at home.
What is maths in Year 1?
1. Number skills

You may feel overwhelmed by
seeing this many objectives.
Don’t be, let’s have a look at how
and why all of the pieces fit
together.
Progression of expectations
EYFS Year 1 Year 2

Count reliably up to 10 objects Count to and across 100, forwards and Pupils count fluently forwards and backwards
backwards, beginning with 0 or 1, or from any in 10s, starting at any 1 or 2 digit number
given number

Estimate how many objects they can see identify and represent numbers using objects Place and identity 2 digit numbers on a
and check by counting and pictorial representations including the number line using their understanding of how
number line close the numbers are to multiples of 10

Use language such as ‘more’ or ‘fewer’ to use the language of: equal to, more than, less Pupils recognise commutativity as the
compare two numbers than (fewer), most, least relationship between subtraction and
addition. Subtraction meaning take away,
difference, how many more.

Recognise numerals 1-9 read and write numbers from 1 to 20 in


numerals and words.
Count aloud in ones, twos, fives or tens count, read and write numbers to 100 in count in multiples of twos, threes, fives and
numerals; tens from any given number
count in multiples of twos, fives and tens
The Maths Curriculum
Children should:
• Become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, including through
varied and frequent practice with increasingly complex problems over
time, so that pupils develop conceptual understanding and the ability to
recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately.

• Reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing


relationships and generalisations and developing an argument,
justification or proof using mathematical language.

• Solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of problems


with increasing sophistication, including breaking down problems into a
series of simpler steps and persevering in seeking solutions.

When we plan a Maths sequence we


always ensure children are exposed to
correct mathematical language, symbols
(+ - = x), an image and a context.

Maths through Literacy
Learning Objective:
To find and name a quarter of a
quantity.
Success Criteria:
Must- I must put be able to groups objects to
find a quarter
Should- I should be able to show a quarter of an
even number within 20.
Could- I could even solve a one step problem
involving a quarter of a quantity.
Together we….
• Discuss mathematical vocabulary.
• Model and explore the concepts as a whole Class
• Share language and models on board and mini
whiteboards
• Show steps and expectations
• Children approach tasks independently, with
partner or adult support
• Stop and share ideas
Now it’s your
turn………Using the
resources, make the
number 24.
I must be able to read my number
sentence correctly.
I should be able to count accurately.
I could even use a number line to solve
my problem.
0
The use of zero is important so
children know that when nothing is
taken away the start number
remains the same.
Addition and Subtraction
First Then Next
For the first time children will
undertake subtraction where they
have to cross 10. We recommend
that this is first introduced through
the concept of “take-away” as
conceptually children understand
this easier.
By using manipulative children
build a firm foundation and
understanding of place value.
They can then look at
subtraction as partitioning
and then they will go on to
see subtraction as the
difference.
What is Mastery?
Mastery is accessible to all children because of
the approaches that with use in Maths with the
concrete and the pictoral. In Year 1 thinking
mathematically can be show and expressed
verbally. Talk is so important in Maths Mastery
and we can help in recording children's answers.
Activities to support writing
at home
Have a positive approach and attitude to Maths

Play simple games/invest in a mini whiteboard
