The Number Line Lesson
This Year 1 The Number Line lesson covers the prior learning of counting and comparing amounts within 10, before moving onto using the number line to explore place value.
The lesson starts with a prior learning worksheet to check pupils’ understanding. If they need more practice, you can choose other resources for that step. The interactive lesson slides recap the prior learning before moving on to the main skill. Children can then practise further by completing the activities and can extend their learning by completing an engaging extension task.
