 This week please check your child can instantly recall (no fingers) all the pairs of numbers that make ten and relate them to subtraction facts i.e. It I know 7+2 = 9, then 9-2 = 7. (If they are still not sure use counters, pasta, toys to help them secure these facts visually first). 

Play these games to check (click on the pictures to find out more information, including questions you can ask):

You could play these games with any numbers but limit numbers to 10 first to secure number bonds to 10 and build confidence playing the games. 

Playing these games on a daily basis will really help!

This week we are also:

• Making sure we understand place value
• Reading and writing numbers to at least 100 in numerals and in words
