Arithmetic Master is a game I use with Year 6 in the last few weeks before the SATs. You know how it feels - when you’ve done past paper after past paper and you still need to work on retrieval but you need some ENERGY! This is a quiz which involves partner work, peer support, team names and unlimited points and my children LOVE it. Covering all of the Arithmetic question areas from Paper 1 in a quiz format. • Children work in pairs for this quiz. • For each section (PPT slide) each child will be given 2 to 3 minutes (your discretion) to answer the questions independently on their own piece of paper. • The next 2 minutes will be sharing and discussing answers with their partner. • Before sharing, they will need to decide upon a final answer as a team. • This is great for peer work, talking through HOW they came to their answer. • Points are decided by the teacher: correct answers; superb explanations; good behaviour; staying focused. • I also deduct points to maintain behaviour management: shouting out, arguing etc. I find that the children learn very quickly that it’s all a bit of fun in the midst of all their revision and behave well beyond the first couple of deductions! • Having ultimate power over the points also ensures that you can award points to children with low self esteem who need the boost. There are over 20 colourful question slides, each containing at least 6 Arithmetic questions. This quiz can easily be broken down into sections, over several sessions . I show this as a PPT presentation and everyone looks at the main smartboard but I have also included a PDF in case you need to print out or Air Drop questions. Another PPT and PDF contains the answers which I use as a class so I can see what everyone is getting out of it, what my areas of need are, giving out points and also to keep up the energy. However, this could also be used for self marking. I really hope you and your class enjoy this resource as much as we do!

There are various classroom maths activities, including maths games, which are purely recreational – and no doubt they have their place. But there are maths games which demand a real involvement on the part of the players and which call for both reasoning and imagination(surely two key features of any worthwhile mathematical activity). Some of these are games for two players, where the aim is to win and where competitive excitement can run high; others are solo games, where the aim is to achieve a particular objective and where the satisfaction is a more private one. We have tried numerous games in the classroom, with pupils of different ages and abilities, and have selected eight of our favourites for the collection offered here. The booklet provides clear instructions for each game, together with the appropriate grid for you to photocopy and laminate. None of the games requires complicated materials and all of them are easy to explain and to put into practice.

Students are to complete all 7 puzzles - they are given the order of stations to visit on their team sheet (but as different puzzles take different amounts of time, they can always go to a station that is free) Each puzzle gives an answer Once students have completed all puzzles, they will have need to complete the calculations at the bottom of their team sheet to crack the 4-digit code Extra info: What you do with the 4-digit code is completely up to you! A lock box with a numbered padlock on works really well (this can be filled with sweets or other prizes), or you can ask them to give you the code and you can give them a prize.
