Use Scootle to come up with one simple Addition and Subtraction resource, or a resource that teaches Odd and Even Numbers.

Use the search function this time rather than the Content Descriptor, and filter down to a chose year group.

Year 4 Mathematics: Addition and Subtraction

2025-10-20 21:51:31 UTC

This Park Ranger Problem-Solving activity is designed for a double-period. Students are park rangers, made responsible for the bird species in the park and documenting their numbers. Employs addition to tally bird numbers (according to species) and subtraction to check accuracy.

Addition and subtraction, Year 2 and 3

2025-10-20 21:56:15 UTC

This subject covers how to solve simple addition and subtraction problems using a range of efficient mental and written strategies. This is helpful for year 2 and year 3 level of students

Year 3 Mathematics: Odd and Even Numbers

2025-10-20 21:57:24 UTC

This short less than one minute video shows a clear picture on how to recognise odd and even numbers. It clearly demonstrates the difference between odd and even numbers and what makes them odd and even.

Decimals: Adding and subtracting Year 6

2025-10-20 22:08:08 UTC

This activity involves students learning about decimals by adding 15 random cards in values of 0.1, 0.01 or 0.001. A new card drawn will be be added to the previous value and this will be repeated until 15 cards are drawn. This is helpful to introduce the concept of adding decimal values to students in year 6.

Year 2 Numeracy Lesson 28 - Subtraction as difference

22206343 — 2025-10-20 22:15:33 UTC

It introduces the idea of subtraction being used to find the difference between two amounts.

The teacher asks students to compare a larger number and a smaller number, then figure out how many more the larger has compared to the smaller.

Practical items are used: students need paper/pencil, counting objects or cards, to physically model the difference.

The approach emphasises understanding “how many more?” rather than just “take away”.

It appears aimed at a Year 2 level (or similar early primary) numeracy class.

Number patterns: adding and subtracting year 5

2025-10-21 01:10:26 UTC

This activity helps students explore number patterns by identifying and applying rules that generate sequences. For example, a pattern like 2, 6, 18, 54 follows the rule “multiply by 3 each time.” Students learn to recognise the starting number, find the rule, and predict the next terms. Understanding number patterns builds algebraic thinking, helps with problem-solving, and supports concepts like multiplication, addition, and decimals in Year 5 maths.

This strategy use number rules to solve maths problem, especially multiplication and divide, it can be use to teach year 2-3 students.

year 3-6 subtraction and re grouping

2025-10-21 01:17:20 UTC

The video is a 10-minute lesson where Miss White shows students in Years 3–6 how to set up and solve vertical subtraction problems that involve regrouping (borrowing).
