Syllabus links: Patterns & Algebra, Multiplication & Division PAES1.1 NES1.3 Recognises, describes, creates and continues repeating patterns and number patterns that increase or decrease Groups, shares and counts collections of objects, describes using everyday language and records using informal methods recognising, copying and continuing simple number patterns that increase or decrease eg 1, 2, 3, 4, … 20, 19, 18, 17, … grouping and sharing using concrete materials 2, 4, 6, 8, ... PAS1.1 NS1.3 Creates, represents and continues a variety of number patterns, supplies missing elements in a pattern and builds number relationships Uses a range of mental strategies and concrete materials for multiplication and division identifying and describing patterns when counting forwards or backwards by ones, twos, fives, or tens modelling multiplication as equal groups or as an array of equal rows eg two groups of three or finding the total number of objects using - rhythmic or skip counting - repeated addition eg ‘5 groups of 4 is the same as 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4’ PAS2.1 NS2.3 Generates, describes and records number patterns using a variety of strategies and completes simple number sentences by calculating missing values Uses mental and informal written strategies for multiplication and division linking multiplication and division facts using groups or arrays building the multiplication facts to at least 10 10 by recognising and describing patterns and applying the commutative property eg 6 4 = 4 6 forming arrays using materials to demonstrate multiplication patterns and relationships eg 3 5 = 15 using mental strategies to recall multiplication facts up to 10 10, including using mental strategies to divide by a one-digit number, including - the inverse relationship of multiplication and division eg 63 ÷ 9 = 7 because 7 9 = 63 relating multiplication and division facts eg 6 4 = 24; so 24 ÷ 4 = 6 and 24 ÷ 6 = 4 PAS3.1a NS3.3 Records, analyses and describes geometric and number patterns that involve one operation using tables and words Selects and applies appropriate strategies for multiplication and division applying appropriate mental, written or calculator strategies to solve multiplication and division problems multiplying three-digit numbers by two-digit numbers using the extended form (long multiplication) 521 eg working through a process of building a simple geometric pattern involving multiples, completing a table of values, and describing the pattern in words. This process includes the following steps: - building a simple geometric pattern using materials eg , , , , … - completing a table of values for the geometric pattern eg Number of Triangles 1 2 3 4 5 6 Number of Sides 3 6 9 12 – – 22 1042 10 420 11 462
