Simple mindmap for children to use as homework to start thinking about different types of data that they may collect. Supported by similar activity in class. The children then create a tally chart of the idea they choose to take forward.

A checklist for problem solving, display, stick in books or laminate for tables

A set of questions for an independent group to find the difference between two numbers. (single and double digit numbers). Aligned with Common Core Standard: 2.OA.1, 2.OA.2, Operations and Algebraic Thinking: Represent and solve problems involving addition and subtraction; 2.NBT.5 Number and Operations in Base Ten: Use place value understanding and properties of operations to add and subtract.

Can be easily adapted. I read to my class who answered in their books but it can be changed so there is space for them to work out the sums underneath.

Simple two large circles for children to sort characters into two groups...circles can easily be overlapped to make a venn diagram. Ignites good discussion about different groups as most children are familiar with the characters.Hope it's useful! :)

This set of handouts is designed to be used with at various levels with place value. It includes composition and decomposition of random numbers.

Venn diagram used with no group names and three circles all interlocking.

Simple pictograph for showing favorite hobbies, can be adapted for different purposes or used as a block chart.

Simple tally chart format, which can be changed to suit different topics. I have chopped the tallies so you can copy and paste the different lines to suit your needs. Each table group received a different tally. They then created a 3D pictogram by transferring the data.

I made these for homework, children continue the patterns. Two levels of differentiation. Sheets can easily be adapted to suit your needs.

Three simple circles to sort stars, leaves adn other shapes (can alter depending what sequins you have)

Scaffold for Geo/Num linked work. We went to the park and created a tally chart on phyiscal features. We came back to the classroom and drew the info into this pictogram.

Usian Bolt and Tyson Gay, ordering times (see differentiation on top of sheet and change accordingly) and then compare the two. Simple sheet linked to The Olympics.

This handout has 9 snakes on it and the task is to color them in as many different ways as they can with 2, 3 or 4 colors. Differentiation is stated at top of sheet.

Children cut and stick images and place in order from smallest to largest.

Use creativity, can collage or draw a pattern. Challenge children to create a difficult pattern!
