Take a deep dive into place value with this Year 4 Negative Numbers Discussion Problem. The resource features two questions that are designed to get children talking about their methods of working out and their answers, in order to develop their reasoning and problem-solving skills. An answer page with an example answer for each question is included, but your children may come to different answers. We suggest letting them mark their own work, or their partner's, to encourage more discussion and self-correction.

Be sure to use our other resources for this step first, as these questions are trickier than the average question.
