The objective it teaches

Reason about the location of any two-digit number in the linear number system

About this resource

Pupils need to be able to identify or place two-digit numbers on marked number lines. They should use efficient strategies and appropriate reasoning, including working backwards from a multiple of 10. Language focus “a is 36 because it is one more than the midpoint of 35.” “b is 79 because it is one less than 80.” Pupils should also be able to estimate the value or position of two-digit numbers on unmarked numbers lines, using appropriate proportional reasoning, rather than counting on from a start point or back from an end point. For example, here pupils should reason: “60 is about here on the number line because it’s just over half way”. To prepare for future work on rounding, pupils should also learn to identify which 2 multiples of 10 a given two-digit number is between.Read more

“Fine, though the font is small for my class.”

The maths is right and the sequence is sensible. Several of my children needed it enlarged to A3, which is easy enough but worth knowing before you print thirty.

“Printed it at eight on a Sunday and taught it on the Monday.”

No editing, no reformatting, no hunting for the answers. The three levels are on separate pages, which sounds obvious until you have used the sites where they are not.

“Matches our White Rose planning almost week for week.”

I stopped adapting things from three different sites and now start here. The odd week does not line up exactly, but the small step it covers is always somewhere in the same block.
