2-3 lessons in two parts. Designed to increase students understanding through step by step activities. Part of Counting in 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s series. Success Criteria: Competent: I can group concrete objects into fives, and say how many groups of fives there are. Accomplished: I can find the total by counting in fives. Exceptional: I can use my reasoning skills to solve problems involving multiples of fives. Part 1 - 32 slides Uses everyday objects, Numicon, money, pentagons, hands. feet, 5p coins, to get students to count and think in fives. Part 2 - 30 slides Recaps part 1 - builds upon learning and then challenges students with mastery questions using 5p coins to buy small items. Also compares amounts of 5p coins to 2p and 10p coins. Includes self-assessment slides for students and a “Whizz Bang” game as a plenary.
