Brilliant tried, tested an loved by all weekly plan to teach maths objectives for year 3 geometry including identifying right angles, understanding right angles as a property of a shape, recognizing irregular shapes, perimeter of shapes, using set squares and even protractors to challenge more able children. This weekly plan includes an excellent WOW lesson introducing right angles where children become right angle detectives. They have to use the properties learnt from the chief inspector (teacher) in the whole class teach to help them to identify right angles hiding in shapes scattered around the classroom. I have used this year after year and even went as far as giving the children the science lab coats to get them into character. THEY LOVED IT! Differentiated work sheets provided to evidence the practical activity. Differentiated planning. Also includes resources for making set square/right angle checker tools for children to use.
Brilliant for encouraging and implementing fun practical learning through maths!

How to Become a Successful TES Author: Step-by-Step Guide
I have designed 100 worksheets on calculating area and perimeter for primary school children. There is a wide variety of difficulty. Some sheets just require area, some perimeter, some a mixture of the two. In some rectangles are used, others have triangles. You can use your professional judgement to choose the appropriate sheet. Answer sheets are provided for all worksheets.
A fully resourced lesson plan for children to apply their skills in calculating the area and perimeter in a real life situation.
Children are presented with a floor plan of carefully proportioned rooms. Within the pack, you will find three differentiated tables for different abilities of children to complete. Each table includes a short list of rooms which are relevant to that ability group. Children calculate the area of carpet and the perimeter of skirting board their rooms require.
Low ability - rectangular rooms
Average ability - rectilinear rooms
High ability - includes triangular areas and 'holes' in the shape
This lesson was originally designed for a Year 5/6 class.
3 fully-prepared resources that are ready to go!
Covers the 2014 National Curriculum's core aims - fluency, reasoning and problem solving.
The lessons have been used to secure an outstanding grading in a lesson observation with a Year 5 class.
3 lesson plans for KS2, each including a starter, a differentiated main activity, a mini plenary, an extension activity and a plenary.
All resources included within the pack, including a letter from Henry VIII and maps of Henry's gardens.
Investigation approach used to ensure deep understanding of perimeter and area.
The lessons currently centre around King Henry VIII's gardens to link to a Tudor topic, but they could easily be adapted to fit in with your topic by simply changing the main character from Henry VIII to another individual who might own a large amount of land.
The three lessons focus on different parts of King Henry VIII’s gardens:
• Lesson 1: The Knot Gardens (a perimeter investigation)
• Lesson 2: The Rose Gardens (finding the area of rectangles and rectilinear shapes)
• Lesson 3: The Stables (an investigation into the relationship between area and perimeter)
My class loved this sequence of lessons. Please leave feedback - I'd love to hear how you get on with them!
KS2 Maths Teaching Resources – Perimeter – Year 4.
In this teaching resource pupils learn how to measure the perimeter of 2-D shapes.
The resource uses images and animation to support teaching and learning and covers KS2 Maths - Measurement – measure and calculate the perimeter of a rectilinear figure in centimetres and metres - from the 2014 National Curriculum. It contains interactive activities and 4 accompanying worksheets.
'Perimeter - Year 4' is fully editable so teachers are able to adapt the resource to meet the needs of each class they teach.
Lesson begins with a starter and LO. Encourages discussions about 2D shapes, and working out the perimeter of a shape. Includes differentiated questions which then leads on to finding the missing lengths on the perimeter of a shape; again with differentiated questions. Concludes with Bloom's taxonomy styled questions. Please leave FEEDBACK and RATE. Cheers :)
Includes rectangles, compound shapes and other polygons. Increases in difficulty towards the end of the game, starting with shapes where all sides are provided, developing into missing sides on rectangles towards compound shapes.
Challenge question is usually something they can complete on the main board in the classroom.
Revision mat -
Students write the key information in the middle section then apply their knowledge to the questions around the outside. The questions also draw in knowledge from other aspects such as Pythagoras.
Six assessments for Year 4 Measures objectives. Includes:

A GCSE Foundation Maths PowerPoint presentation I created from some revision worksheets I use. It contains slides on how to answer all the types of questions that may come up in the foundation exam. It was created with AQA and Edexcel (foundation) in mind, but may be suitable for other exam boards too.
Additionally, could be good revision for Higher GCSE students too. I use it with my high KS3 Students as they are more than capable understanding the material.
I have split it up into four areas: Number, Algebra, Data/statistics, and Shape/Space/Measures.
All funds raised by the sale of this resource will be donated to the NSPCC.
