Isabelle Teaching us a Maths Strategy on her Fingers

In maths, some of us have been learning to use materials to solve addition and subtraction problems that involve fives.  Isabelle was such a superstar during maths time... once she learnt the strategy herself, she offered to help teach another learner and even decided to help another person in her group (without being asked!)

Here she is to help teach you...



Can you use this strategy to solve problems like

4 + 5 =

5 + 3 =

2 + 5 =

8 - 3 =

6 - 1 =

7 - 5 =

9 - 4 =

  1. Brilliant strategy and very well explained, well done Isabelle and Miss Holland. Isabelle's grandfather in the UK was able to do the sums all by himself, after he too had learnt the strategy!
