Resource Details

• Page 1 The resource explores the pattern of counting in twos, on a number grid to 32 learners first circle the ‘twos numbers’.

Learners are then presented with the two times table in order with boxes in which to write their answers. They can use their findings from the circles drawn on the grid above to complete this, however if this is too tricky initially learners can leave this section and proceed onto the next (last) section (which begins on page 1) - exploring ‘pairs’ of numbers, using ‘headphones’ as a clear visual guide.

• Page 2 continues to explore ‘pairs of twos numbers’ using the headphones throughout to make the question being asked clear to learners. There is a box for learners to write their answers in for each question.

There is a clear space for learners to write their name on the upper right side of page 1 (vertically) and the lower left side of page 2 (horizontally).
