1. Place value and ordering
Whole Numbers
Place value and ordering
Reading and writing
Adding
Subtracting
Multiplying
Dividing

2. Place value and ordering
The number system is made up of the digits 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
The position of the digit is called the place value
8 in 5834
is worth 800
8 in 4384
is worth 80

3. Reading and writing
All numbers are split into groups of three digits from the right
The first three ‘slots’ are units, tens and hundreds
This pattern is repeated under the headings thousands, millions and billions

4. Reading and writing TO READ THE NUMBERS OFF Group into threes.
From the left work out which heading the first group is in
Work out how many of these there are
Continue through the number

5. Adding or combining Place the numbers under each other
Place the right most digit under the right most digit
Place all other digits under each other

6. Adding or combining Add individual columns
If the answer is less than 10 place underneath digits
If the answer is 10 or more place unit part of answer under and carry the ‘tens’ part

7. Subtracting or finding difference
Write numbers similarly to adding
Subtract individual columns
If top number is larger then place answer underneath
If top number is smaller then we must borrow

8. Subtracting or finding difference
BORROWING
Increase top number by 10
Decrease next left number on top by one
If next top left is 0 change to 9 and continue to next left

9. Times Tables Create your own times table X4 Double and double
X5 Hands of the clock
X6 Treble then double
X8 Double, double, double
X9 Times 10 minus the number

10. Multiplying by multiples of 10,100, etc
Ignore the zeroes
Multiply by the remaining number
Add back in zeroes
452 x 3 = 1356
452 x 30
= 13560
4520 x 30 =
452 x 300 =

11. Multiplying (adding over and over) Single digits
Once you know your times tables multiplying is simple
Multiply the bottom number by the individual digits
If answer is less than 10 place under digit
Otherwise put down ‘unit’ and carry ‘ten’
put down ‘unit’
and carry ‘ten’

12. Multiplying (adding over and over) Single digits
Continue multiplying through the digits of top number from right to left
Put down whole answer to final multiplication

13. Multiplying (adding over and over) Double digits
The bottom number is broken up into units, tens, etc.
Here 24 = 20 +4
First multiply by 4
Then multiply by 20
DON’T FORGET
ZERO ON
SECOND LINE

14. Division (sharing equally)
1782 divided by 6 or how many 6s make up 1782?
Work through the number from left to right
How many 6es go into 17?
17 divided by 6 = 2 with remainder 5 2
remainder 5

15. Division (sharing equally)
Move through the number
How many 6es go into 58?
If it doesn’t go then put a zero on top
When you have run out of digits you can stop even with a remainder

16. Division (sharing equally)
Long division is the same as short division but we write out the multiplication to find the remainder
45 x 2
=90
carry
next 9
on to 40
making 409
130 divided
by 45 =
2 remainder 40

17. Division with remainder
