Doubling numbers is a key mental computation strategy. Children investigated the patterns when we built doubling models. They then recorded these in their workbooks. If they don't know a double we encourage breaking numbers into known parts. For example, double 7 is the same as double 5 plus double 2.
Can anyone see a pattern? |
Collaborating to build the models. |
We can learn from each other. |
Patterns become real when we build them with tiles. |
Recording understanding is a vital process in learning. |
