      It's great. Is there a way to change the numbers on the multiply/divide one to make them smaller so students can concentrate on the skill of negative numbers?

    • “Build an Army” is a fun, strategy game that can be used to consolidate understanding of key mathematical concepts. After students have played the game and described their strategy, there are opportunities for differentiation via various lines of inquiry and probing questions for the students to investigate. Full instructions are provided in the “General Rules” PowerPoint. To find more Build an Army activities, just visit: http://www.mrbartonmaths.com/buildanarmy.htm

    Practice questions, homeworks and assessments

    • this task asks students to use the four operations with negative numbers and a bit of squaring too. Students cross off correct answers, revealing an anagram of a film. (solution:guardians of the galaxy).

    • Two lame jokes from yours truly whose punchlines are unveiled upon answering the negative numbers questions. Number 1 is simple adding and subtracting, number 2 is multiplying and dividing (including Bidmas).

    • This is a “Tarsia: Convince Me” activity on operations with negative numbers

      Unlike standard Tarsia activities, here you only need to print out the solution (included on the PowerPoint), and students must:

      1. Find (at least) 5 incorrectly matched up elements, convince you that each one is incorrect explaining the mistake that has been made, and then decide what the answer should have been

      2. Replace the ? with the correct answer

      3. Come up with a question to replace ?? that could give the answer. A selection of these questions can then be given to other students to use as a rich, challenging, pupil-created homework.

      To access all my updated Tarsia jigsaw activities, including the Convince Me series, as well as teacher notes and more, please visit http://www.mrbartonmaths.com/jigsaw.htm

    • Answer the questions: if the answer is even, colour in the appropriate square, if it's odd, leave the square blank. The QR code then takes you to Depeche Mode&'s 1989 classic 'Personal Jesus', which has nothing to do with negative numbers (the only song called 'Negative' I could find is Mansun&';s effort, but the video is a bit odd).

    • This is a task involving the four rules (add, subtract, multiply, divide) with negative numbers. Basically students fill in the blanks but there could be discussion about different answers etc.
