Hoping one day that we introduce multiplication to all chdn by exploring products, and finding ways we can split them up into equal parts.
It's what we at FunKey are advocating, and love it that @SticknSplit think the same! @Ms_Mathsteacher @MathsFin @louiseseeley@MrValencia24

This yr 1 class love Numberblocks & this little lady had a Numberblocks themed birthday party & then donated her homemade characters to the class! She wanted them all to enjoy them. Little gestures from little people make all the difference 😍

@MathsFin @NJC_Ed_Maths@GillKnight1@HyperHelga@suzannelflannel Exactly! They didn't explain what it means - just gave a "sophisticated" way to work it out. And of course, the "trick" of doubling and halving is not useful when the initial calculation is so easy! The new calculation is so much harder!
This question on 2023 SATS paper is clearly wrong @educationgovuk You cannot put a square number on the line. You’ve obviously realised this so have put an option in the mark scheme whereby children can cross out a part of the question. Every child deserves compensatory mark.
