QUESTION 1
1.1 Two diagrams that I can use to teach doubling in the Foundation Phase are:
Number line
Doubling pyramid
1.2
Number line: I would use a number line to help learners visually see the jumps
when a number is doubled. For example, if we start at 0 and make two equal
jumps of 3, we land on 6. This shows that double 3 is 6. Learners can use
counters or even take steps on a drawn floor number line to act out the jumps.
This helps them understand what doubling really means through action and sight.
Doubling pyramid: I would show learners a pyramid where each layer has a
number and its double next to it. For example, 2 and 4, 3 and 6, 4 and 8.
Learners can use this diagram to spot the pattern in doubling. They can even
colour the doubles or create their own pyramid using bottle tops or small blocks
to match and double.
1.3
