Workbook: 5A
Chapter: 2 Whole Numbers: Addition and Subtraction
Lesson: 3 and 4 Adding and Subtracting within 1 000 000

Good morning year 5,

 

Today we will be revisiting addition and subtraction by looking at how to add and subtract within one million.

Have a look at the problem below which requires us to use both addition and subtraction to compare the taxi fees. Ask yourself why you need to use more than one operation to solve the problem? This is because we need to add together the amounts within each day before subtracting from another day. 

 

 

The answer to the final problem is 111 000. He spent 111 000 rupiah more on the 16th Sep than on the 14th Sep.

Please look at these websites for support on addition and subtraction and if you need reminding on how to use the column method to work out answers:

BBC BITESIZE: ADDING AND SUBTRACTING – KS2

BBC DAILY LESSONS: METHODS OF ADDING AND SUBTRACTING

Once you finish this, why don’t you complete one of the extensions:

Mastery-addition-and-subtraction-Year-5

Addition Subtraction word problem challenge cards

If you have a question or need any help, please comment on the blog.

Good luck Year 5!

Mrs Avdiu & Ms Robertson

  8. Hello everyone,
    I’ve done the extension work and I’ve been doing the extension work the whole week. There never seems to be any answers for the extension work so I’m not sure if I’m doing it right or not.

  9. Miss Carruthers says:

    Well done Regan! I’m pleased to hear that you have been challenging yourself. I think that some of them have the answers on them at the bottom of the sheet. I’ll check with Mrs Avdiu and see if she can post the answers so that you can mark them yourself 🙂
