Multiply numbers by 10, 100 and 1000

This is a complete lesson on multiplying numbers by 10, 100 and 1000. I began with only multiplication and did the next lesson on dividing numbers by 10, 100, and 1000 (year6 class but could be used for year 5). It includes differentiated practice questions which can be done on whiteboards (with answers on a separate slide), a (differentiated) worksheet slide which you can print off or get your class to work from the board and choose their own level. The lesson also includes a slide with the answers to save our valuable teacher time. Why not get your class to self-assess at the end of the lesson?

Here are 15 reading comprehensions that I gave my year 6 class for their Autumn Term homework.

The Reading Comprehensions are about or the books are: ‘The Explorer’ by KatherineRundell (3 of them ) ‘Kensuke’s Kingdom’ by Michael Morpurgo (2 of them ) ‘The Secret Garden’ by Frances Hogson Burnett ‘When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit’ by Judith Kerr ‘Little Women’ by Louisa May Alcott ‘A Monster Calls’ by Patrick Ness. The Importance of Reading (to encourage them to read!) Malala Yousafzai life story Marcus Rashford life story Beyonce life story Emma Raducanu life story The reading comprehensions are mostly suited for MAs and HAs but could definitely be given to some of your higher LAs. The style of questions involve a range of skills that come up in SATs papers and I have also included the answers at the bottom of each document to make it quicker to mark.

Rounding numbers year 6

Rounding numbers year 6

(0)
This lesson starts off with two opportunities to discuss the method of how to round numbers. The method I usually teach my class is to circle the place value column you are rounding to. For instance, if you are rounding 456 to the nearest ten , circle the 5. Then underline the number to its right and this will tell you whether you round up or down. The PowerPoint then moves onto differentiated practice questions (answers on next slide so you can check the children’s whiteboards quickly). The final slide has steps to success and a challange question for the class to complete when they have finished their work. The worksheets are differentiated five ways. Two possible options for your LAs (indicated by ), one option for your MAs () and two options for your HAs (). The answers are at the end.
Identify place value year 6

Identify place value year 6

(0)
This lesson begins with an activity to see if your year 6s can remember their place value columns by asking them a few questions like this one: What column in the nine in? (in 1,895,765) It then moves onto ‘Guess my number’ where the teacher first models how to do it by saying: My number has 8 hundreds, 4 ten thousands, 2 millions, 7 units. What is my number? Can you write it in digits. To model this, the teacher could use a place value matt or suggest that the children write out the place value columns to support themselves. Challenge write the number in words. This is then followed by similar differentiated practice questions. At the end of the PowerPoint, there is a slide which has three levels. Blue= LA, Orange = MA and Red= HA. There is another slide which is for children below LA. I usually print these sheets off and hand them out accordingly or allow the children to choose their level of confidence! The answers for each question are included on following slides. While the class are working independently, I display the slide with the Learning Objective, spellings and challenge questions which they can complete when they have finished.

I wrote this biography about Emmeline as an example for my year class. We were completing a unit about the Suffragettes and they were writing a biography about Emmeline. This was also really good for building up their subject knowledge about her.
