This lesson plan from Gascoigne Primary School teaches Year 2 students about doubling numbers using dienes blocks. The teacher, Mrs Acquah-Aikins, uses a visualiser to demonstrate doubling numbers by adding the same number of cubes. The visualiser allows the entire class to clearly see the doubling process. It helps students both demonstrate and observe doubling multiples of 10 to develop their understanding.
