Students match bar model to an equation. These algebra bar model dominoes/ loop cards help develop understanding in students who are new to algebra by bridging the gap between concrete and abstract. Covers additions, subtraction, multiplication and division. There are 30 cards in totals. They can be used for a whole class loop task - i.e. they have to line up in a loop with each bar model next to a matching number sentence - or students can also create the loop individually or in pairs. As an extension students can also solve the 1-step equations. A black and white version is available on the final pages of the document.

Over 60 slides (31 question slides and 31 answer slides). Based on the new KS2 year 6 curriculum. Can be used for quick starters or for revision. Designed to cover all aspects of the year 6 number curriculum including place value (order, rounding, negative numbers), operations (long multiplication, long division, order of operations, common factors, common multiples, prime numbers, multi-step word problems, missing number problems, estimation), fractions (simplifying, comparing, add, subtract, multiply, divide, equivalents) and decimals (multiplication, rounding, equivalents). The video shows a preview of the first 7 slides. Includes questions in a similar style to both reasoning and arithmetic test papers.

Recognise mixed numbers and improper fractions and convert from one form to the other activity sheets. Each worksheet comes with a help sheet and answer sheet. Includes pictorial representation tasks to help children understand concepts as well as developing their fluency in the methods. The video shows a preview of the sheets.

This choose your own adventure Powerpoint task allows students to practise multiplying and dividing fractions. It is suitable for students in upper KS2 or for review in lower KS3. This interactive, no prep task can be done as a whole class (with the class voting for each option), in small groups or individually. It is suitable for homework or as a main activity. For each part of the story (each slide) students will have to either multiply or divide two fractions, depending on how they want their adventure to continue. This engaging activity is a great way to ensure students gain confidence in operations with fractions. What’s included: A Powerpoint activity that can be shown to the whole class or shared with students. A Powerpoint with the answers to each slide. A worksheet for students to record their answers. This activity is designed to engage students for one lesson. Students can complete the activity multiple times, choosing a different story every time, if they finish early.
