Number bonds are a way of breaking down numbers to smaller parts. This could be using addition (e.g. 4+5=9) or place value (40+3=43). Today we are going to do it focussing on the place value. 

As you work through the lesson in the textbook, you will see that there are lots of different ways you can lay it out. They all show the same thing but in different ways.

When we were at school, lots of you preferred using the tens and ones column. If you want a template to help you with these questions, then click here for lots of tens and ones columns that you may want to use: tens and ones columns

Once you have done worksheet 4, there are some other activities you could do:

  • This BBC Bitesize lessons has a recap at the start, and then four different games and activities that you can play. Some games are online and others are things you can play at home. 
  • This NRICH activity sets out a challenge for you to complete to make different 2 digit numbers. You can either print it out and do it on paper or there is an interactive version on the website. 
  • This NRICH board game is a fun game to play with someone in your family. You’ll need a dice and some counters. Be careful, the snail board is laid out differently to normal boards.
