During the Summer term we are focusing on gaining a more rapid recall of our NUMBER BONDS to 10 and 20. Being secure with our number bonds will allow for problems to be solved mentally and with greater speed.

We will be practising our counting, forwards and backwards, in steps of 1, 2, 5 and 10. Counting can be done anywhere, so count wherever you can!

We also want to ensure that Year One children can recognise and write numbers to 20 as well as add and subtract numbers to 20. For Year two, we hope that they will be able to read and write numbers to 100, recognise the place value of of each digit in a two-digit number and partition numbers in different ways. We also hope that they will be able to add and subtract numbers within 100 using an appropriate strategy.
