Everyone welcome! # Year 1 Maths: Parts and Wholes ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/74F5FDF3-3C80-4243-8867-2DE2C010B2D7.jpeg) 3 November 2025 In our maths lesson today, we started our new topic of addition and subtraction within 10. We needed to understand that a whole has at least two parts. For example, 9 could have two parts of 5 and 4. To help us understand this we used counters and ten frames to make different parts and wholes. It was really impressive to see how well the children used the equipment to aid their learning.![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/74F5FDF3-3C80-4243-8867-2DE2C010B2D7.jpeg) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Maths](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/maths) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_8268.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-10-30-half-term-netball-fitness-camp) Previous ### [Half Term Netball & Fitness Camp ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-10-30-half-term-netball-fitness-camp) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/449F1893-390D-48FF-9CF3-47F07CE7EC78.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-11-04-reception-re-thanking-god-harvest) Next ### [Reception- RE- Thanking God, Harvest](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-11-04-reception-re-thanking-god-harvest) ### Personal Development - [News](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
