Hi all
I wanted to give you a link that I thought may be useful for you as parents as this is a new method used in Primary Schools today to show children how to break down scary looking sums into more manageable ‘chunks’. This will lead to the method that we know and love later on the school which is known as the ‘bus stop method’. Have a look at ‘number lines’ also as they boys are now trying to use ’empty number lines’ which is another term that is new.
Lewis was very keen to show me this method. Thank you for these examples, they are very helpful.
You told me in the morning
