Three differentiated versions of a worksheet using open number lines to find the difference between 2-digit numbers by counting on in steps. Created for my Year 3 class, but suitable for Year 2 or 4. 1) (LA) Finding the difference between 3-digit numbers - numbers at each end of the number lines and some of the jumps and '+' signs put in place for extra scaffolding. 2) (MA) Finding the difference between 3-digit numbers - with numbers at each end of the number lines to scaffold. 3) (HA) Finding the difference between 3-digit numbers - blank number lines.

Differentiated worksheets for 3 ability groups. I made these as we were converting measures and also doing a robots topic at the time. The task is to convert measurements and put them in order, (first from shortest to longest, and then from longest to shortest) in order to help Hiro and Baymax (from Big Hero 6) with their robot building projects. This could be followed up with some practical measuring and robot building if you wanted to.

Differentiated planning sheet for a non-chronological report on the Celts. Higher ability pupils can use the planner to complete research about the Celts' daily life (houses, clothes, food, etc) and then use the writing frame to structure their non-chronological report with sub-headings. The planner and writing frame for lower ability pupils concentrates on the Celts' roundhouses (what they look like, how they are built, what would be found inside, etc). Used with my Year 3 class, but could also be used with Year 4. I have also included a simple Venn diagram sheet, used to compare a Celtic roundhouse with a modern home, which my Year 3 class used as a starting point for their research into the roundhouses.

Worksheet where pupils have to divide popular meals into their food groups (e.g. spaghetti bolognese -> spaghetti (carbohydrates) beef (meat/protein) tomato (fruit&veg). I used this with my Year 3 class as part of a healthy eating topic, after studying the well-known "healthy plate" diagram showing the proportion of food groups we should eat. There is also a follow-up homework task, where pupils use the meals they eat over the weekend to complete the food groups task. Also included is a simple research task, finding out which fruit and vegetables are usually grown in the UK, and which countries are the main producers of others, with a couple of additional data handling-type questions at the end. My class completed it using the internet, although this could also be done as a homework task, with pupils researching fruit and vegetables at the supermarket.

Pupils have to complete a timetable for the pirates to tell them what times to do their chores on the ship, using analogue and digital clocks . Three differentiated versions; 'o'clock times....'o'clock' & 'half past'....'quarter to', 'quarter past', 'o'clock' & 'half past'.

Differentiated tallying task. Just give pupils a handful of counters (differentiate by how many you give them) and allow them to count each colour, recording their results on the tally chart, and then answer a few simple data handling questions underneath.

A Venn diagram template, with square images of different musical instruments ready to cut and stick onto the diagram, which can be sorted according to your chosen criteria.

Differentiated (3 ability levels) versions of a counting in 5s worksheet based on the 3 little pigs and counting in 5s to work out quantities of building materials the little pigs need to build their houses.

3 differentiated worksheets (in the same file) I made for my Year 3 class, but would be suitable for Year 4 too. Worksheet 1- More able - 18 questions - subtracting 3 digit numbers, using borrowing. Worksheet 2 - Middle group - 18 questions - q1-9 subtracting 2 digit numbers using borrowing / q10-18 subtracting 3 digit numbers, using borrowing Worksheet 3 - Less able - 12 questions - subtracting 2 digit numbers using borrowing.

Maths word problems I wrote for my Year 3 class to practise for tests. There are 2 pages for each group, each with word problems needing a range of different Year 3 maths skills. We are doing a pond/rock pool topic at the moment, so the questions are all about a fisherman called Fred! The questions are differentiated for 3 different levels (The wording of the questions is simplified slightly for the lower ability. All three levels are differentiated by the difficulty of numbers used, whether carrying is needed, etc). Lower ability sheet would also suit Year 2, and higher ability sheet would suit less able Year 4 pupils.

Great bundle of superhero-themed literacy templates for cartoon strips, poems and 2 fact files for creating your own superhero or super villain. Originally created for Year 1 but also suitable for Year 2 pupils. These resources are also available as part of a slightly larger superheroes bundle, which you can find in my 'shop'.

Two versions of a labelling task to consolidate the learning of vocabulary for parts of the body in Welsh. There are pictures with spaces to either cut-and-stick the labels provided, or for more able pupils to write the vocabulary in themselves.

This is a differentiated retell task based on the story 'Ferocious wild beasts' by Chris Wormell. There are two versions; one is a sequencing activity with pictures of pages from the story, and the other is a storyboard, with pictures of pages from the story along with space for pupils to write sections of the story under each picture.

Three differentiated time worksheets. I made them for my Year 3 class, but depending on ability they could be used from Year 1 up to Year 4. Each set is differentiated with 3 different versions *o'clock and half past *o'clock, half past, quarter past and quarter to *5 minute intervals (e.g. ten past five, twenty to seven, etc) Each worksheet asks children to complete analogue clocks to show time times given to help Santa get all his chores done around the North Pole.

Three differentiated time worksheets. I made them for my Year 3 class, but depending on ability they could be used from Year 1 up to Year 4. Each set is differentiated with 3 different versions *o'clock and half past *o'clock, half past, quarter past and quarter to *5 minute intervals (e.g. ten past five, twenty to seven, etc) Each worksheet asks pupils to complete digital clocks to help the elf get his jobs finished on time so he has time left to make presents.

Three differentiated time worksheets. I made them for my Year 3 class, but depending on ability they could be used from Year 1 up to Year 4. Each set is differentiated with 3 different versions *o'clock and half past *o'clock, half past, quarter past and quarter to *5 minute intervals (e.g. ten past five, twenty to seven, etc) Each worksheet asks children to complete both analogue and digital clocks to help children do Christmas jobs round the house (make cookies, set the table, wrap presents, etc) before Santa comes.

I made these for my Year 1 class during a zoo topic. There are three things included in this bundle... Animal movement - A5 sheet with animal photos where pupils have to describe how each one moves (good to use whilst watching YouTube animal clips!) Thinking skills - Used to record ideas about animals in a thinking skills animal habitat activity, where we created a small world consisting of different types of habitat, and pupils were given toy animals, which they had to place in a habitat and justify their choice. Animal sorting task (differentiated) - This sorting task comes with templates for sorting animals using your choice of criteria using a table, Venn diagram or Carroll diagram, and also selections of animal photos in small squares ready to cut up and use.

Three sets of reading comprehension questions for Year 3 or 4, which I created to tie in with our pond life topic. All three comprehensions contain questions in similar formats to national reading tests, and each one relates to a page of text within this free pack, which is available online (https://www.rbkc.gov.uk/pdf/pond_pack_2010.pdf). Part 1 - Questions about invertebrates [p9 of the pond pack] Part 2 - Questions about invertebrates (cont.) [p10 of the pond pack] Part 3 - Questions about amphibians [p11 of the pond pack]

I created this database in Excel, using actual data from the McDonalds nutritional information, and then created the questions to challenge my Year 3 class to search the database (using the filter and sort tools - just click on the arrows at the top of each field) to find the answers. You could either print the questions or let pupils type into the word version and save a copy. My class had never done databases, and I found it was a good way to introduce them to it. I simplified the information down a bit, so the database contains the menu items, fat and sugar content, calories and whether each item contains egg, milk or gluten (for allergies). I chose the McDonalds information, as we are doing a topic based on food at the moment, but this would work just as well as a standalone database lesson.

Pupils use the grid to draw an island, and then have to add a list of things on their map, such as a lake, hotel, beach, etc. Once they have finished creating their island, they need to complete directions for tourists to help them get around their island. Using North, South, East and West pupils have to tell them how to get to and from different places on the map. There are 3 differentiated versions: LA - Have to give simple instructions for 4 different routes. MA - Have to give instructions for 9 different routes. HA - Have to give 9 instructions for different routes, and also have to give some directions for routes with more than one stop (e.g. hotel -> lake -> beach). I printed them out on A3 for my Year 3 class to use, which worked well, but they could be printed A4 too.
