Maths Videos to help calculating using a blank number line

We thought we would compile all the videos in one place to help you when looking at using a blank number line. As discussed within the help sheet, sent home before the holidays, there are many ways to calculate these are just a few.  Click on the word and the video will play explaining the method.  If you have any questions or problems with access, please do not hesitate to contact your child's teacher.

Ways to help at home

  • Read every day
  • Practise your spellings and common exception words
  • As you read spot the sounds in words, can you find digraphs (two letters that make one sound) and trigraphs (three letters that make one sound)?
  • Count in 2s, 5s and 10s forwards and backwards
  • Learn your number bonds for all numbers to 20 (e.g number bonds to 7 are 1+6, 2+5, 3+4, etc.)
  • Practise telling the time to the hour, quarter past, half past, quarter to and as an extra challenge to 5 minute intervals (five past, ten past etc.)
  • Practise letter formation using the correct pencil grip and develop fine motor skills (peg pressing, picking pasta shells/rice with tweezers)
