MATHEMATICS UNIT PLANNER VELS Level: 2 Term: 3 Year: 2011 Dimension: MATHS - NUMBER Focus: ADDITION & SUBTRACTION

VELS Learning Focus Statement: The work of a student progressing towards the standard at Level 2 demonstrates, for example Progression point 1.25 counting forwards and backwards by 1 from starting points between 1 and 100 calculation of the next number when asked to add 1 or 2 to any natural number from 0 to 10 drawing of diagrams to show subtraction activities Progression point 1.5 addition and subtraction of two-digit multiples of ten by counting on and counting back counting on from the larger of two collections to find their total use of the number properties (commutative and associative) of addition in mental computation, and recognition of complements to ten; for example, 3 + 4 + 7 + 6 = 3 + 7 + 4 + 6 = 10 + 10 = 20 Progression point 1.75 development and use of a fact family linking 25 + 5 = 30 to 5 + 25 = 30, 30 5 = 25 and 30 25 = 5 addition and subtraction of numbers less than 10 through recall and use of number facts

Vocabulary Development: take away, minus, counting back, equals, how many,
difference between, less than, fewer than, before, add, join, put together, altogether, combine, count on, difference between, bigger than / greater than, count on, double, near double, more, less, whole, missing
