Can the children visualise 3 and 2 coming together to make 5 in the ‘whole’? Encourage children to draw the amount of the missing part-whole model. Once children are confident using a part-whole model with concrete resources, you can begin to introduce pictorial images.įor instance, you can replace three pictures of cars in one part and two pictures of cars in the other part. This really helps with understanding before moving onto cubes or counters. Provide children with real-life objects to manipulate (dry pasta is a great and cheap resource) and explore using a part-whole model. Do this by creating a number of the week and focusing on different ways of making the number, for example, how many ways can you make 5? Supporting a mastery mindset Reception is also a good time for children to explore the part-whole model.

How to use the part-whole model in Reception This stage encourages children to make a mental connection between the physical object they were just handling and the abstract pictures, diagrams, or models that represent the objects from the problem.
Here, visual representations of concrete objects are used to model problems.

Pleeeease!?!’ We were having fun with our homemade #fiveframes and #tenframes and had an idea for a six frame! #ldsb #mtbos #welovemath #playingmath #mathisexciting #iteachmath #collaboration /SVLsC2GCme If you need some inspiration for your own DIY frames, check out these creative maths educators. Try using egg boxes, lollipop sticks, or even create a large ten frame made out of masking tape on the carpet! The great thing is you can make ten frames in different ways. For example, how many ways can we make 10? Once they are confident, they start to explore the ways of making different number bonds. My Reception class begins by showing the amount of different numbers on a ten frame. Ten frames can be used in provision in a number of ways. Introducing five frames in nursery and playing key songs such as five currant buns (with children physically standing in a large five frame) can progress to introducing ten frames in Reception and building on their prior knowledge of number. Giving children time to understand numbers is key.
Is there enough for every doll to have an equal amount? How do you know? Is there any pasta left over? Why? How to use number frames It may be as simple as sharing pasta between a group of dolls in the home corner. When children can confidently solve problems and count using concrete objects, they can then progress to pictorial representations, and finally to more abstract numbers. My Reception class loves counting out fruit for snack time, comparing, sorting and counting a range of different buttons, pasta, and even ‘magic beans’ linked to our topics. Spending lots of time using real-life objects, solving real-life problems, and manipulating abstract concrete objects (when ready) such as cubes and counters is essential in the early years. The theorist Jerome Bruner (1966) stresses the importance of children spending time learning maths through tangible items. Unlike traditional maths teaching methods where teachers demonstrate how to solve a problem, the CPA approach brings concepts to life by allowing children to experience and handle physical (concrete) objects. During this stage, students use concrete objects to model problems.
