📚 Part 1: Guided Practice (WALT and Success Criteria)

WALT: We are learning to partition numbers to 10 using art materials (paint pots, crayons, brushes).

Success criteria: I can split a number into two groups, write the number sentence, and explain my grouping using colours.

Differentiation: Use counters or coloured pencils to move items physically. Teacher support: one-to-one modelling for students who need it.

Extension: Try partitions to 12 or create three groups from a number.

Dyslexia-friendly options: Short sentences, highlight key numbers in bold, read the question aloud, use a ruler to follow lines.

1. Check all pairs that correctly partition 6 paint pots (choose all that apply):

1 + 5

2 + 4

3 + 3

6 + 1

2. There are 9 crayons. You split them into 7 and ____ . Which number fills the blank?

3. Match each art collection (left) with a partition on the right by drawing a line.

A. 5 paintbrushes

B. 4 coloured pencils

C. 7 crayons

1. 3 + 4

2. 2 + 3

3. 1 + 6

4. Which of these are partitions that make 10? (tick all that apply)

5 + 5

6 + 2

9 + 0

7 + 5

✏️ Part 2: Short Answers & Creative Activity

WALT: We are learning to show partitions with drawings and number sentences.

Success criteria: I can draw groups, write the matching number sentence, and try a new partition independently.

5. Partition 8 pencils into two groups. Write one partition below:

____ + ____ = 8

6. Draw a picture to show a partition of 7 paintbrushes (use colour). Then write the number sentence:

____ + ____ = 7

7. Extension (for confident learners): Create two different partitions for 12 art stickers. Write both number sentences:

____ + ____ = 12

8. Reflection: In one sentence, explain how you used colour or grouping to help partition numbers.
