Key ideas and checks
- I can convert safely between number forms.
- I can explain why the chosen operation is appropriate.
- Every solution or explanation for “Προβλήματα μίας πράξης” should include a method, justification, and final check.
Unit
Core theory
The essential chapter ideas in a clear sequence before practice.
Represent before calculating
Write the number in a useful form, check sign and place value, and only then choose the operation. A clear representation reduces mechanical errors.
Equivalent forms
Fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, and powers can describe the same quantity. Changing form is a solving tool, not a separate trick.
Reasonableness check
Estimate before and after the exact calculation. The sign, order of magnitude, and unit must agree with the problem context.
επιλογή πρόσθεσης ή αφαίρεσης
Use a suitable representation, state the rule, and keep every numerical or algebraic step equivalent. Finish with estimation, an inverse operation, or substitution as a check.

Mathematics
Worked examples
Follow the method step by step and check why every step is valid.
Worked arithmetic example
4 equal groups contain 6 objects each. How many objects are there, and how can the answer be checked?
- 1Write repeated addition: 6 + 6 + 6 + 6.
- 2Connect it to 4 × 6.
- 3Check with division: 24 ÷ 4 = 6.

Thinking and explanation example
Explain “επιλογή πρόσθεσης ή αφαίρεσης” in your own words and use a picture, objects, a table, or a simple measurement to support it.
- 1State what is known and what is being found.
- 2Choose one clear representation.
- 3Explain what it shows and check that the answer is sensible.
A complete explanation connects the correct idea, a clear representation, and a sensible check.

Practice with answers
Eight graded tasks from core fluency to exam-style application. Work independently before opening a hint or answer.
Core fluency3 minutes
Calculate 3 + 4 and show two representations connected with “επιλογή πρόσθεσης ή αφαίρεσης”.
Hint
Use a number line, place value, or objects.
Answer guide
3 + 4 = 7. Valid representations include number-line jumps and grouped objects.
Core fluency4 minutes
6 equal groups contain 6 objects each. Find the total and write an addition and multiplication statement.
Hint
Add 6 a total of 6 times.
Answer guide
6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 6 · 6 = 36.
Application4 minutes
Continue 9, 12, 15, ... for three more terms and explain the rule.
Hint
Check how much each term increases.
Answer guide
18, 21, 24; +3.
Application5 minutes
A rectangle has sides 5 cm and 5 cm. Find its perimeter and explain why four sides are counted.
Hint
Opposite sides are equal.
Answer guide
Perimeter = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20 cm.
Reasoning5 minutes
Out of 16 objects, 8 are shaded. What fraction is shaded and how does it simplify?
Hint
Put shaded objects over the total.
Answer guide
8/16 = 1/2.
Reasoning6 minutes
The measurements are 4, 4, 4, and 4. Find the greatest, least, and range.
Hint
Range = greatest value minus least value.
Answer guide
Greatest 4, least 4, range 0.
Exam style7 minutes
Anna has 42 cards, gives away 7, then shares the rest into 5 equal groups. How many are in each group?
Hint
Subtract first, then divide.
Answer guide
42 - 7 = 35; (35) : 5 = 7.
Exam style8 minutes
A learner says 3 + 3 = 7. Find the error, correct it, and check the correction.
Hint
Check with a number line or inverse subtraction.
Answer guide
3 + 3 = 6; 6 - 3 = 3.
Common mistakes
- Dropping brackets or using the wrong order of operations.
- Converting a fraction or percentage without checking equivalence.
- Answering without an estimate, unit, or sign check.
Mastery check
- I can convert safely between number forms.
- I can explain why the chosen operation is appropriate.
- I check the result with estimation or an inverse operation.
