Generate and describe patterns
- Model, describe and record patterns of multiples
- Create and continue a variety of number patterns that increase or decrease by a constant amount
- Recognise the significance of the final digit of a whole number in determining whether a given number is even or odd (Reasons about relations)
- Recognise the connection between even numbers and the multiplication facts for 2 (Reasons about relations)
- Investigate the result of multiplying by one and zero (Reasons about relations)
Use arrays to establish multiplication facts from multiples of 2 and 4, 5 and 10
- Create and represent multiplicative structure, using the term multiples when connecting grouping to arrays
- Use the array structure to coordinate the number of groups with the number in each group
