About this resource

Help your Year 2 pupils build fluency and problem-solving skills with this interactive Maths Resource Pack, focusing on adding three one-digit numbers. Fully aligned with the National Curriculum, this resource introduces strategies for combining three single-digit numbers efficiently and accurately. Through engaging teaching slides and worked examples, pupils explore mental strategies such as spotting number bonds, making 10, and looking for doubles to simplify calculations. For example, children learn that in the problem 3 + 7 + 5, they can first make 10 with 3 + 7, then add the remaining 5 to reach 15. Independent activities encourage pupils to practise systematically, explain their reasoning, and apply strategies to a range of problems. Real-life word problems are included to make learning meaningful, while the plenary recap consolidates methods and helps children reflect on which strategies worked best.
