What's included?
Targeted Year 4 resources for exploring inverse operations (addition and subtraction) within 10000, promoting fact family relationships and calculation checking, a core KS2 Maths objective. Activities build reasoning by requiring pupils to use one operation to check or solve for a missing value in the other, ensuring deepening understanding. This essential small step supports mastery of arithmetic relationships and is vital for national curriculum expectations. The CS Maths Scheme provides structured checking and problem-solving tasks.
