I am an ex-primary head teacher and English, Maths and History specialist. I've mostly worked in KS2, often in Year 6. Although for the last two years, I've been working in Year 1, which has been delightful!
All the resources have been used successfully with children in a range of schools all over the country.
I am constantly reviewing and updating my resources. Please follow me to ensure that you have the most up to date versions of the resources you buy.

Learning Objectives:
Starter:
- To use short division.
- To identify different long division methods.
Main Lesson:
- To divide numbers up to 4 digits by a two-digit whole number using the formal written method of long division (Year 6)
- To use division including formal written methods, applying it to integers and decimals, (KS3)
This lesson consists of:
A starter focusing on using applying short division to decimals and a connect starter reviewing prior learning with regard to long division methods
An Interactive Whiteboard teaching introduction for both Notebook and ActivInspire, to teach three different long division methods and to assess the children’s ability to solve long division problems.
A 4 way differentiated series of calculations (including a Challenge Activity) where children are expected to solve a series long division problems, and two Word Problem per ability group. Answers are supplied to ease marking.
An AFL / Next Steps task based on previous SATs questions, which requires children to apply their knowledge of long division.
20 sets of complete lessons (4 x 5 days) covering current National Curriculum expectations for teaching Place Value, Addition and Subtraction, formal short and long multiplication and formal short and long division.
Each week ends with either an investigation of Word Problems linked to the topic studied.
Every lesson includes:
- a Starter based on Arithmetic and / or previous learning and a Connect Activity designed to activate the children's interest in the topic being covered that day.
- two interactive teaching presentations designed to run on either Smartboard's Interactive Whiteboard or Promethean ActivInspire software.
- a detailed 4 way differentiated lesson plan including all relevant learning objectives and AfL / next step opportunities.
- a 4 way differentiated worksheet designed to cater for the learning of virtually all children in Year 5 or Year 6 regardless of ability.
A collection of 5 lessons' worksheets for Year 5 and Year 6, differentiated for 4 different ability groups. 4 sets of worksheets include a Word Problem, while the other 1 sets are Word problems relating to formal written division.
LO's covered include:
To use short or long division
To solve Word problems requiring formal written division (Year 5 and Year 6)
To develop their mathematical knowledge, in part through solving problems and evaluating the outcomes, including multi-step problems (KS3)
