SEN Functional Skills Maths Complete Series Bundle: Entry Level 1 to Level 2

All seven Simon’s Steps Functional Skills Maths booklets in one bundle, from Entry Level 1 to Level 2, in small, clear steps for learners with SEN/ALN and anyone who needs a little extra help.

This bundle brings together the complete Simon’s Steps Functional Skills Maths series: seven booklets covering the whole of the Department for Education subject content from Entry Level 1 to Level 2. Learners can start at the level that suits them and move up through the series without changing resource. The booklets are suitable for all awarding organisations.

Who it is for:
• Learners with SEN/ALN, adult learners and post-16 learners working towards any level of Functional Skills Maths
• Colleges, tutors, teachers, SENCOs and parents who support learners at different levels and want one consistent resource
• Learners who need to go back and fill gaps at an earlier level before moving on

What is included:
• Entry Level 1: 15 steps (numbers to 20, adding and taking away, money and time, measures and shape, lists and charts)
• Entry Level 2: 27 steps (numbers to 200, the four operations, fractions and money, time and measures, shape and position, information and data)
• Entry Level 3: 28 steps (numbers to 1,000, calculating, fractions and decimals, money, time, measures, shape and direction, handling data)
• Level 1 Part 1, Number: 23 steps (whole numbers, calculating, fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio and problem solving)
• Level 1 Part 2, Measures, Shape and Data: 21 steps (units and scales, perimeter, area and volume, shape, angles and direction, tables and charts, averages and probability, problem solving)
• Level 2 Part 1, Number: 24 steps (numbers and calculating, fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio and proportion, money and problem solving)
• Level 2 Part 2, Measures, Shape and Data: 22 steps (measures, perimeter and area, 3-D shapes, scale, coordinates and angles, statistics, probability and problem solving)

That is 160 small steps in total, each with its own Learn it, Worked example and Try it pages.

Why they work well together:
Every booklet uses the same layout, so learners know what to expect as they move up a level. Each step has three pages: Learn it (the idea in plain words, a clear picture and a phrase to remember), Worked example (solved with Think, Information, Problem, Solve) and Try it (four questions, with boxes to help on question 1, and a traffic light to show how the learner feels). Every booklet has mixed practice questions linked to the steps (with non-calculator questions marked at Levels 1 and 2), full answers, a glossary of key terms, a progress tracker and cut-out bookmarks.

All seven are fillable PDFs: learners can type their answers using the free Adobe Acrobat Reader, with fraction boxes for fraction answers, or you can print just the pages you need. Clear Lexend font, a calm cream background, and a consistent colour for each operation.

Created by a teacher and tutor with over 25 years of experience supporting learners with SEN/ALN.
