A Pugs of the Frozen North themed worksheet that I used for a week-long homework task based on subtraction using the column method.
There are four challenges in increasing difficulty that see children securing more and more desirable food for the pugs when Shen is abandoned with them on the frozen ocean.
This resource is differentiated 3 ways and serves as a way to assess children’s baseline abilities at the start of term in Year 3 (or SEND Upper-KS2) to organise them into ability tables or to check progress against.
Let me know if you need anything alternative!

Hello all!
Here’s a 3-way differentiated resource for getting children into groups of understanding using column subtraction. I use this with my year 3 and 4 children, and they love getting into role to complete it.
The task involves children interviewing for three different jobs in Ancient Egyptian society: High priest, Scholar or Pharaoh. The job they get depends on their answers to the questions- you can discuss that, whilst there was a heirarchy, without people in every role, society wouldn’t exist.
**A cute, dragon-themed short division activity with a challenge to extend high-ability children. Answer sheet included.
**
I’m currently teaching a How To Train Your Dragon unit, and this activity is to contextualize math skills for the children. This product would be great for any book or class theme that is fantasy-based, or just for making your math lessons more immersive!
The children must solve seven 3 digit ÷ 1 digit short division questions and match the warrior with their appropriate dragon.
Included in this download:
Matching worksheet PDF
Answer sheet PDF
.docx version of all sheets for easy editing
2 fonts to edit resources with
Access to a free border and dragon clip art (not to be used commercially)

Included in this (very large) pack are:
5 individual powerpoint presentations that range from introducing decimals to multiplying them by 10, 100 and 1000 as they progress through the week.
2 in depth lesson plans and lesson prompts for the week- they are to accompany the powerpoint presentations and other resources for that day
8 individual worksheets that engage children and progress learning throughout the week. I used the DECIMALS5 (Friday) worksheets as a Bronze, Silver, Gold award challenge and it worked well. Feel free to do the same.
Mental maths opener with preorganised questions to ask in a ‘quick-fire’ like activity.
A sorting activity for decimals, lengths etc.
3 Pages of homework for the weekend, with an explanation and place to write an example to help them. It will need tweaking as it mentions my name etc and the top of the sheet.
And other documents, such as learning objective sticker sheets etc.

Please contact me if there are any questions regarding these resources! I’m here to help!

Hi there!
Here's another lesson pack for you, this time with map reading and using grids in Maths and Geography.
The Thursday's lesson is pretty intense- it involves a geocaching type event, with the class hunting around the playground using their own map of the playground that they have gridded up.
Only thing you'd need to do is provide a map of your playground, or even classroom.
LO's, success criteria and learning outcomes outlined.
Lots of activities!
Enjoy!
