A very clear 27 slide fully illustrated Powerpoint detailing all of the vocabulary and different sections of Circles. Suitable for Upper Key Stage 2 / Lower Key Stage 3 My Year 5 class had been struggling to understand and remember all of the different parts of a Circle, but have got it now! This Powerpoint clearly shows all the different parts of a circle including: Centre Circumference Arc Radius Diameter Chord Tangent Segment Sector Semi-Circle All of the slides could also be printed off to make a ready-made display on Circles.

This set of 3 maths mastery lessons were planned and taught (Lesson 1 as an observation lesson), for a Year 5 class. The content could easily be adapted to suit a Year 4 or Year 6 class. My class loved the MINECRAFT theme and the use of charcoal, gold, redstone, diamonds, emeralds and gold linked perfectly to our weights unit. Included are: - Lesson 1,2,3 Detailed Lesson Plans - Lesson 1,2,3 Powerpoints - Lesson 1,2,3 - Fluency, Probing and Mastery Worksheets - Measures conversion chart Lesson 1 focuses on converting Kg and g Lesson 2 focuses on rounding weights to the nearest kg, 1/2 kg, 100g and 10g Lesson 3 focuses on converting metric and imperial units of weights measures Each lesson includes an engaging MINECRAFT themed Powerpoint that logically works through Fluency, Probing and Maths Mastery challenges. The accompanying worksheets follow the same theme and can be printed as multiple handout sheets to save printing. I used filled small labelled bags of sand, gravel etc to represent redstone etc for the group practical weighing activity. The observation went brilliantly with all the pupils really engaged and so any one lesson of this mini-series on weight would be great for an observation or interview lesson.
