A PARENTS’ MEETING
Outline Plan
§ 9x table activity
- partitioning
- compensation
- doubles and near doubles
- bridging through 10, 20
§ Division by “chunking”
Ask :
Background
Plenary
partitioning :
eg 34 + 35 = (30 + 4) + (30 + 5)
(30 + 30) = 60
(4 + 5) =_ 9
69
§ compensation :
eg 17 + 9 = 17 + 10 - 1 = 26
26 + 11 = 26 + 10 + 1 = 37
eg 8 + 8 = 16
so 8 + 9 = 8 + 8 + 1 = 17
eg 8 + 7 = (8 + 2) + 5
= 10 + 5 = 15
15 + 9 = (15 + 5) + 4
= 20 + 4 = 24
- mental strategies
- informal jottings to support mental calculations
- expanded form adding most significant digit first
- expanded form adding units first
- standard written form

§ Parents are not expected to teach pupils but share, talk and
listen to their child
Being informed gives you the background upon which you can
discuss confidently with parents and the community the
mathematics teaching in your school.
