Develop number senseinvolving numbers of up to100 000.
Use the calculator, abacusand/or ruler to explore variousaspects of numbers in thecontext of daily lifeexperiences.
(i) Name and write numbers upto 100 000.
Naming and writing numbers toinclude numbers in extendednotation, for example:
76 051 = 70000 + 6000 + 0 + 50+ 1
76 051 = 76 thousands + 5 tens+ 1 ones
76 051 = 7 ten thousands + 6thousands + 5 tens + 1ones

Pupils practice mental addition
by using the abacus as anaddition model.
(i) Add any two to four numbersto 100 000.
Allow pupils to performestimation either before or afteraddition. Estimating answersbefore adding builds confidenceamong pupils, while estimatingafter adding provides a check onoperation performed.
An example of a quick additionstrategy, i.e. pairing of ten, is asfollows (refer to the additionexample in the SuggestedTeaching and Learning Activitiescolumn):
In the ones place value, add 9and 1 to make 10. Then 10 and 3make 13. Apply this pairs of ten
