Spotlight Y4 How Many Pencils? Counting Hundreds, Tens and Ones to 1,000

Spotlight Sheets: focused practice, one question type at a time Within a single small step, pupils often meet a range of question types. For many children this provides valuable challenge. For others, moving between question types can make it harder to secure the underlying concept. Spotlight Sheets address this by isolating one question type at a time. Pupils can practise it with focus, develop fluency and build confidence before moving on to mixed questions. They are well suited to targeted intervention, same-day catch-up, or any pupil who benefits from a more focused approach. Differentiated in three ways Sheet 1: Supported: Pencils are set out in order (packs of 100, boxes of 10, then single pencils), a key shows what each is worth, and pupils fill in a place value chart first. Sheet 2: Core: Packs, boxes and pencils are mixed up, and some numbers have zero tens or zero ones. Sheet 3: Extended: Pictures use × notation (such as box × 14), so pupils must exchange 10 tens for a hundred or 10 ones for a ten.
