  • complete number sentences that involve more than one operation by calculating missing numbers, eg

 

 

  * describe strategies for completing simple number sentences and justify solutions (Communicating, Reasoning)

 

  • identify and use inverse operations to assist with the solution of number sentences, eg 

 

 

  * describe how inverse operations can be used to solve a number sentence (Communicating, Reasoning)

 

  • complete number sentences involving multiplication and division, including those involving simple fractions or decimals, eg

 

 

    * check solutions to number sentences by substituting the solution into the original question (Reasoning)

 

  • write number sentences to match word problems that require finding a missing number, eg 'I am thinking of a number that when I double it and add 5, the answer is 13. What is the number?'

** NOTE - Covering many of the pointers below to achieve outcomes is dependent on the focus of instruction. As such many of the activities below can be used for a variety of purposes, or to cover a range of pointers. I have therefore grouped them rather than repeating them. Instead, where I have been able to find them, I have listed instructional links below pointers where they are specifically applicable.

 

Worksheets – whilst the site is designed to share interactive site links, I have included a few worksheet sites as their display could be used on Interactive White Boards or individual computers as practise activities without the need for printing - please see the Stage 3 Home Page.
