Included in this bundle are three complete suites of Gap Analysis / Question Level Analysis grids for the 2016, 2017 and 2018 KS2 SATs.
Every paper, every question.
Grids change colour depending on whether questions have been answered correctly and the grids auto calculate scores, indicating pass/fail or greater depth.
Please see individual resources for more details.

-Name each 3D polygon
Identify the number of faces
Identify the number of vertices
Identify the number of edges
Resource includes:
Number Bonds to 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100.
Fully interactive.

Perfectly matching the structure and mark weighting of the 2019 KS2 Paper 1 - Arithmetic assessments, these six original assessments, one page mark schemes and QLA grids will help you quickly identify gaps in whole class or individual teaching.
** This resource includes:**
6 x original KS2 Paper 1 - Arithmetic
6 x one page mark schemes
QLA spreadsheet that automatically calculate the percentages of a question answered correctly, and the whole class percentages of specific arithmetic domains.
These can be used as an excellent resource for rapidly improving your class’s attainment.
This resource will save you many hours work when trying to use Assessment for Learning in your class.
There are two QLA grids included in one Excel document for help with Gap Analysis.
Arithmetic
Reasoning
Input the data using the marks from the papers and the grid will change colour to show where a child has been successful or not answered a question correctly, or at all.
The spreadsheet will auto-calculate how successful the whole cohort has been on particular questions. These are linked directly to the WRM small steps so you can see which lessons and steps need to be revised. 30 children can be entered in this document.
The total score thresholds auto-calculate and change colour to help indicate which children are working at approximately an expected standard (EXS) level or a Greater Depth (GDS) level. These thresholds use historical KS2 SATs thresholds to make them as accurate as possible.
Please note, some of the cells are locked for editing so that users do not break the spreadsheet functionality. Passwords will not be given out. However, I am more than happy to assist with any adaptations you need.
Additionally, I am in no way affiliated with White Rose Maths. No White Rose Maths resources are included in this product. Freely available content is linked to within it.
This is a 4-way differentiated worksheet/activity sheet that tests children's understanding of how to add a mixed number to a proper fraction, which is tested at the end of Year Six and onwards in SATs assessments (arithmetic/reasoning) and in other end of year assessments.
There are four challenges:
-Add a mixed number to a proper fraction (same denominators).
-Add a mixed number to a proper fraction (different denominators).
-Add two mixed numbers to a proper fraction (same denominators)
-Add two mixed numbers to a proper fraction (different denominators)
At each stage, children will be expected to give their answer in its simplest form, as is standard practice in the assessed tests.
I have also included an answer sheet.
This is an activity that will challenge all children in a class. Suitable for Years 5-8 (depending on ability).
To complete this activity children will need to:
- recall the number of sides for polygons down to a dodecagon
- use algebra to calculate the sum of the interior angles for each shape
- find the size of each interior angle using logic (division)
- calculate the size of each exterior angle (180 - interior angle = exterior angle)
This will get the room buzzing and you'll see your children using many skills during the same lesson.
I have colour banded the activity four ways:
-Blue (easiest)
-White (Middle)
- Green (challenging)
- Purple (Mastery)

Included are two activity sheets/worksheets where children need to count up and back in number sequences
- Lower ability (first three numbers given, the rest relies on counting on in 2, 3, 5 etc)
- Higher Ability (sequence of eight numbers, some missing, where children will need to count on and back in order to solve the problem).
Included are two activity sheets/worksheets where children need to count up in steps of five and ten.
- Lower ability (first three numbers given, the rest relies on counting on)
- Higher Ability (sequence of eight numbers, some missing, where children will need to count on and back in order to solve the problem).
This is a differentiated worksheet to help children master opposite angles. Answers are included.
Children are challenged to:
- name the type of angle a ‘missing angle’ is.
- calculate its size in degrees
- measure it accurately using a protractor.
All angles are correctly sized.
There are two sheets, an Expected Standard sheet and a more challenging Greater Depth sheet (2016+ Curriculum). On each sheet there are nine missing angles, meaning that children have 27 things to do in order to complete one activity sheet.
Please rate and/or comment. All feedback is valuable.
Two differentiated activity sheets for KS1 children where they need to write certain shapes, names or words in a coordinate grid.
Activity 1 - simplified instructions e.g. 'Draw a three sided shape in'
Activity 2 - harder instructions e.g. 'Draw a ___ in the cell directly under the ______'
A 4-way differentiated activity sheet/worksheet that will develop children's understanding of rounding to the nearest hundred or thousand.
Challenges include:
Challenge 1 - Use a pre-made numberline to help you round the following numbers to the level of accuracy in the brackets.
Challenge 2 - Draw a place value grid or numberline to help you round the following numbers to the level of accuracy in the brackets.
Challenge 3 - Draw a number line that goes from 0 to 10,000. Indicate, with a labelled arrow, where the following numbers are placed.
Challenge 4 – Worded Problem
Answer sheet included, as well as an editable version so you can adapt to your own class.
Included in this detailed bundle:
Bar charts (including answers)
Line graphs (including answers)

A massive time saver! Please see individual files for details.
A four way differentiated activity/worksheet that will develop a child’s understanding of area and perimeter. This version has 1cm gridlines shown.
Challenge 1 - Calculate the area and perimeter of simple quadrilaterals.
Challenge 2 - Calculate the area and perimeter of compound/composite quadrilaterals (divisions present)
Challenge 3 - Calculate the area and perimeter of compound/composite quadrilaterals (divisions removed)
Mastery Challenge - Calculate the area and perimeter of a huge, multi-compound shape and then the area of the shaded part.
A two-way differentiated activity sheet/worksheet that will develop the children’s understanding of bar graphs, data handling, averages and data handling vocabulary.
Sheet 1 - 8 Questions asking about the warmest/coldest months, difference in temperature between months. There are two data sets on the graph (two lines, same axes)
Sheet 2 - 8 Questions focusing more on averages and trends. There are three data sets on the same axes. Completely different questions.
Answers are provided for both sheets. I have provided two different layouts which also add to the challenge. One has a wider line graph set, the other has a narrower set. This will test children’s adaptability to varying presentations.
A four way differentiated activity/worksheet that will develop a child’s understanding of area and perimeter. This version has gridlines removed for an extra challenge. Children will need to measure the shapes (all are whole numbers)
Challenge 1 - Calculate the area and perimeter of simple quadrilaterals.
Challenge 2 - Calculate the area and perimeter of compound/composite quadrilaterals (divisions present)
Challenge 3 - Calculate the area and perimeter of compound/composite quadrilaterals (divisions removed)
Mastery Challenge - Calculate the area and perimeter of a huge, multi-compound shape and then the area of the shaded part.
A fun, four way differentiated activity that will develop children’s understanding of areas of triangles. This version has a 1cm grid backing to help children calculate the area without the need to measure.
Challenge 1 - Calculate area of triangles.
Challenge 2 - Calculate the area of compound polygons (triangles and rectangles)
Challenge 3 - Calculate the area of compound polygons (triangles, rectangles, trapeziums and parallelograms)
Mastery Challenge - Calculate the area of a large, multi-compound shape made up of many different polygons.
