Yr 3 Multiplication and Division as an array, repeated addition and on a number-line -CPA
A printable template to encourage children to see calculations as arrays, on a number-line , as repeated addition and pictorially. Shrink them down and use them for starter activities too.
I used it this week with my Year 3 class and they loved it.

Year 4 - Shape and Slide - Plot Quadrilaterals and Transformations Game
Plot quadrilaterals and then transform the shape, using this game.
Learning Objectives (from New Curriculum) covered are:
LO - classify geometric shapes, including quadrilaterals and triangles, based on their properties.
LO - describe positions on a 2-D grid as coordinates in the first quadrant.
LO - describe movements between positions as translations of a given unit to the left/right and up/down.
LO - plot specified points and draw sides to complete a given polygon.
Measurement Problem Solving KS2 Romans
This activity combined our History topic of Romans, with our Maths focus of measurement, plus a little bit of shapes and fractions thrown as an assessment of the previous units taught.
Students receive a letter from Emperor Hadrian, with the command to rebuild sections of Hadrian`s Wall. They then worked in differientiated groups for calculate the correct measurements for the wall. Once the correct measurements had been calculated they then used their knowledge of 3-D shapes to build the wall. I have included the activity and instructions in pdf and word format for editing.
My class loved it, but I have to be honest - it took them all morning!
Learning Objectives covered:
Geometry: Property of Shapes:
• Draw 2-D shapes and make 3-D shapes using modelling materials.
Measurement:
• Measure, compare, and add lengths (m/cm/mm)
• Continue to measure using the appropriate tools and units, progressing to using a wider range of measures, including comparing and using mixed units and simple equivalents of mixed units (for example, 5m = 500cm).
Fractions:
• Recognise, find and write fractions of a discrete set of objects.
• Recognise that tenths arise from dividing an object into 10 equal parts and in dividing one-digit numbers or quantities by 10
Roman Invasion of Britain - Thinking Skills Diamond Ranking (KS2)
A thinking skills activity to encourage students to consider why the Romans were such successful invaders.
All discussion points are true, students need to order them in a diamond ranking, there are no wrong answers so all students can safely enjoy discussing their ideas, without fear of failure.
As a further challenge I asked students to design one more battle tactic to add to the Roman arsenal.
Learning Objective is from the new 2014 Curriculum.
