Choosing Methods

Build on your children’s bank of skills for solving problems where addition, subtraction, multiplication or division is required! ‘Choosing Methods’ explains a number of written methods for solving problems as well as demonstrating how children may check their calculations, ensuring accuracy. Throughout the lessons, a number of tricky word problems are shown where children must determine what sort of calculations are required, then choose appropriate methods to solve them.
