Maths – Bridging 100

Tuesday 14 October 2025

In our recent maths sessions, we’ve been learning how to bridge 100 when subtracting.

This method will make calculations quicker and easier for us!

Eg:

Instead of counting back six times: 103, 102, 101 etc, we can use the following sentences to help us bridge 100.

Help at home: Give your child some questions to complete and chant the sentences above with them to help.
