Please be aware of mistakes: 81 instead of 90, and 181 instead of 190 in the number grids on the pdf. The word 'factor' used when it should be 'multiple' in the powerpoint.

A bingo activity focussing on students knowledge of classifying numbers as square, cubes, multiples, odd / even etc. A fun activity that can generate plenty of discussion, check prior knowledge and provide an opportunity for higher level thinking on the topic.

This is a rich Venn Diagram activity on Types of Number, including factors, multiples, primes, square numbers, and more!
To access all the Venn Diagram activities in this collection, as well as teaching notes, please visit: http://www.mrbartonmaths.com/venn.htm
Here is why I love Venn Diagram activities so much:
1) Students can always make a start. If they can think of a number/expression/object or whatever it might be, it has to go in one of the regions on the diagram, so they are up and running
2) The more regions student find, the more challenging the task gets, which adds a nice element of differentiation
3) They are incredibly versatile, and can be used for almost all maths topics for all ages and abilities
4) They are easy to tweak by simply changing one of the circle labels if you find they are too difficult/easy
5) Students can create their own as an extension task

Thank you for sharing!
A worksheet with 15 questions and 16 answers where pupils need to eliminate the correct answers to find the odd one out (work out the left over answer).
Topics are: factors, HCF, primes, multiples, square numbers, even/ odd numbers.
A good resource for consolidation of these topics.
Final answer on this worksheet is 21.
(Note: see also "Odd one out" worksheets on square numbers, cube numbers and roots, and BIDMAS).Reviews
