Times-Tables Word Problems

(0)
I have been putting together this times tables word problem resource recently. I grabbed word problems from all over the internet, for each times table (2-12). This is in an attempt to grow my student’s confidence when they cross numbers with words in assessments and to consolidate their tables. • My class are often more than able for the questions they are posed with but as soon as they see words they freak out. This is super common! • These word problems are all multiplication, so although they don’t need to consider the operation to choose they do have to filter through the words to gain an understanding of what figures to manage and manipulate. I colour coordinated each set for so I know exactly what’s what.

These task sheets are based on the AMAZING book"You’re A Star" by Poppy O’Neill. I plan on focusing on one page during circle time and then asking the children to complete the corresponding task sheet back at their desk with some mindful music playing. I got mines in “The Works” for £2.99 during my PGCE this year, here’s a link to it on amazon for just £3.00 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Youre-Star-Childs-Guide-Self-Esteem/dp/1786852357. I based my tasks on the activities in the book. About the book- "This practical guide combines proven cognitive-behavioural therapy methods used by child psychologists in schools with simple activities to help your child grow their self-esteem. It’s aimed at children aged 7–11 because a lot happens in these years that can impact a child’s sense of self-worth, not just now but for years to come. Your child will be guided, with the help of Bop – a friendly and supportive character they can identify with – through fun and engaging activities which are interspersed with useful tips, inspirational statements and practical information for parents."

Spelling Tasks

In my opinion SPELLING TESTS are NOT an accurate measurement tool of every child’s progress. Although most schools have them as a policy I think it’s important to try and teach children that struggle with spellings (especially children with specific learning difficulties) that 10/10 in a spelling test does not make a student more worthy. • Often the traditional way of making children- rewrite spellings they got wrong underneath the test 5 times, is thought to be the correct way to ensure a child learns those spelling and although this might be true for some children, it is not helpful for children who present dyslexic traits. For these children, visual tasks and creativity work much better to highlight spelling patterns. • With these children in mind I created a “super spelling task resource” it has 12 unique ways to encourage children to pick one spelling they got wrong and do a very short task on it to allow them to master one of their words, instead of rewriting 5 words and not really learning any of them. Majority of the tasks I have made up myself but I found some online too!!
