Included in the pack is: plans for all activities; flipchart for lesson starters (ActivInspire, PowerPoint and PDF format); answer sheets (where applicable); a random worksheet generator (Excel) and a mini-assessment (for all metric measurements, not just length). The children will love the fun interactive activities, the “amazing length facts”, the journey round Kilotown and much more! The random worksheet generator gives you access to thousands of worksheets at just the push of a button. This is all you will need for teaching length to your pupils.
Objectives covered:
Measure, compare, add and subtract: lengths (m/cm/mm); mass (kg/g); volume/capacity (l/ml)
Convert between different units of measure [for example, kilometre to metre; hour to minute]
Convert between different units of metric measure [for example, kilometre and metre; centimetre and metre; centimetre and millimetre; gram and kilogram; litre and millilitre]

This is a collection of mental maths papers/tests for Year 3. The spreadsheet includes four sheets differentiated four ways (LA, MA, HA and Challenge) and includes answer sheets. What makes these different to other published mental maths material, is that each sheet can be randomised by simply pushing F9 on your keyboard, so there are almost an unlimited combination of questions for each paper. This means they can be used as often as you like with very little repetition. Use them daily, weekly, termly or as you wish. Use them for early bird, homework or to regularly assess the children's mental computation. Also included on the sheet is a record sheet if you wish to track pupil progress - simply fill in the names and record the results in the grid (scores will be colour coded for easy analysis). The previews represent just a fraction of the sheets that can be produced!
Objectives covered:
Count from 0 in multiples of 4, 8, 50 and 100; find 10 or 100 more or less than a given number
Recognise the place value of each digit in a 3-digit number (100s, 10s, 1s)
Compare and order numbers up to 1,000
Add and subtract numbers mentally, including: a three-digit number and 1s; a three-digit number and 10s; a three-digit number and 100s
Estimate the answer to a calculation and use inverse operations to check answers
Solve problems, including missing number problems, using number facts, place value, and more complex addition and subtraction
Recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 3, 4 and 8 multiplication tables
Write and calculate mathematical statements for multiplication and division using the multiplication tables that they know, including for two-digit numbers times one-digit numbers, using mental and progressing to formal written methods
Solve problems, including missing number problems, involving multiplication and division, including positive integer scaling problems and correspondence problems in which n objects are connected to m objects
Count up and down in tenths; recognise that tenths arise from dividing an object into 10 equal parts and in dividing one-digit numbers or quantities by 10
Recognise, find and write fractions of a discrete set of objects: unit fractions and non-unit fractions with small denominators
Add and subtract amounts of money to give change, using both £ and p in practical contexts
Add and subtract fractions with the same denominator within one whole [for example, 5/7 + 1/7 = 6/7 ]
Compare and order unit fractions, and fractions with the same denominators
Know the number of seconds in a minute and the number of days in each month, year and leap year
