Design your own fairground theme park! This area and perimeter task will provide your children with an engaging activity where they will want to work out the area of each ride so they can place it in their own theme park. The task sheet provides children with different styles of area questions, some need to be measured, others with given sides and then the option of irregular sizes which will require children to create compound shapes. The children can choose where to place their rides and how the spacing of their rides is important and why area skills fit into the context of real world problems. As an additional task, they can solve the perimeter of each of their rides. I’ve completed this task multiple times with classes and every time they’ve been desperate to continue the task after the lesson.

Designed for Upper KS2 children, this ordering and compare task involves children numbering the value of real football transfers. The numbers go from 60,000 to 222 million. This tests the children’s place value understanding and their ordering ability. Players range from Alan Shearer to modern players like Neymar. Additional challenges have been added so that children can show their understanding through bar models, whole part models and greater, less than symbols too. Answer sheets are included too.

This differentiated resource provides a range of pyramid addition and subtraction problems for children to solve. It ranges from pyramids which are addition only - starting with adding only 10s, going up to adding 4 digit numbers. Then it provides pyramid problems which require subtraction and addition skills. This starts with numbers smaller than 30 and progresses up to 4 and 5-digit numbers. There are 9 question sheets, 9 answer sheets and 1 blank template so pupils can design their own pyramid problem.

This download contains 6 worksheets related to adding up to 10 and adding up to 20. There are some harder challenges for Greater Depth children so they can add beyond 20. Reasoning questions, worded questions and differentiated mastery based questions are available too. Perfect for 2 or 3 sequenced lessons. All of the answers are included within this pack also. This lesson is primarily aimed at children in Year 2 but could be used in Year 3 to support lower ability children.

This game is called Back to the Fractions and is designed for children in Year 4, 5 or 6 who are learning how improper fractions can be turned into a mixed number (a.k.a. mixed fractions). The aim of the game is to completely fill your template card of fraction amounts until the improper fraction given has been made. You do this by rolling a die, moving said amount, and each time they land on a colour rectangle, they can colour that related fraction segment on their template card. You get the printable board game, instructions and 2 printable template cards. There is an option for 6 smaller printable boards to reduce printing costs.

There are 3 levels of questioning for the children to choose from for each multiplication of either 10, 100 or 1000. Then there are 3 levels of division questions which they can choose how much they answer and at what difficulty. Then another sheet provides reasoning based questions related to multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 & 1000. The lesson is aimed at Year 5 but could be for Years 4, 5 and 6. An answer sheet is provided for every question.

This PowerPoint will guide you through how fractions can be represented in various formats. The strategy used in this Powerpoint is, “I do…We do…You do”. This approach means the teacher models a good example and talks through relevant question prompts (notes are included for slides). Then the pupils have a go with the teacher before finally having their own independent go. They repeat this strategy for identifying how to read fractions and then again for how you get a whole. Questions for pupils to do independently are at the end of each section to test understanding. This lesson walkthrough is designed for children working in Year 5 but could be used as a recap in Year 6 or to introduce the topic in Year 4. A corresponding worksheet is available to purchase which relates to these questions - Identifying Fractions.

5 questions related to Upper KS2 (specifically Year 5) arithmetic on each of the 47 pages with the occassional reasoning based question. This is ideally for quickly putting up 5 maths questions for quick arithmetic practice. The questions cycle through multiple times before focusing on the questions which children struggle on more. Then changes to include a wider variety of numeracy understanding that the children take on as the year progresses. Includes questions on; addition upto 100,000, column subtraction, column multiplication upto 2x2 digit, multiplication and division facts, fraction of amounts, adding and subtraction fractions which have the same and different denominators, multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000, multiplying with 0, sqaured and cubed numbers, rounding, missing number equations, factor pairs, timetable questions, money and graph questions.

4 worksheets which supports adding 10’s pictorially using the dienes cubes. Could be used as a sequence of lessons (3 days). All of the answers are below 100 - it does include a worksheet to support lower ability children as a stepping stone to this objective. Reasoning questions are built in towards the end of the sheet for children to apply their understanding to the worded questions. This is a Year 2 objective but could be used with any pupil learning to add pictorially in tens. Answer sheets are included.

A resource for children to explore the addition and subtraction relationship (fact families). Starting with bar models and whole part models to show partitioning. Fact families - moving the position of the added number and the total to show in different ways and to show as subtraction is the inverse of this. This maths resource is primarily aimed at Year 2 children but could be used in other years if suitable. 4 pages and answers included.

Mr Bean has got himself into some trouble and needs some maths problems solving. There are a range of addition based reasoning questions which require children to apply their understanding of column addition to.

Level 3 has 10 questions in a box structure Followed by 3 unstructured questions and 2 worded problems.

The challenge cards display a number of activities that get children to manipulate the practical fraction resources you have. They will need to demonstrate their understanding by showing equivalents, fractions of amounts, practical reasoning based questions and need to think about ascending ordering too. The children cut the cards out and can choose to complete them in any order. You will need to use practical equipment for the children to manipulate equipment in order to compare fractions. This is a useful lesson as either an exploration into fractions or as a recap session. It has been designed for children in Years 4 or 5.

This worksheet starts with basic Roman Numeral questions then moves on to harder reasoning based questions, which requires children to apply their Roman Numeral understanding to them. This does also come with answers. It is suitable for children in Years 4 -6.

This activity is aimed at Upper KS2 children and gets them to show their understanding of place value by ordering numbers using the greater than, less than and equals sign. Presented on a Powerpoint presentation, this resource provides 3 ability level tasks, aimed at children in Upper KS2, **which are displayed on the board simultaneously which means no/ minimal printing is needed. ** There are slides which explain how to do the tasks and the option of a printable spinner (needed for the middle ability task). Then they move on to a spinner activity where they create their own numbers to order and finally the children needing to show how they could represent the numbers they make using place value counters.
