I wanted to create a fun multiplication quiz for my students. I wanted one I cpuld easily make each day for the students. I will be uploading a new movie each day. The idea is that you take these numbers and multiply them by the timetable of your choice! This fun multiplication quiz lets you test all the class at the same time, as each child is simply working with their own multiplication times table.

I wanted to give me students daily mental maths practice in a fun and different way. I have provided a way of generating pairs of numbers using a spinning top. The numbers could be added together, subtracted from each other, the numbers could be multiplied or divided, depending on the age and ability of your class. This test is designed so different children in the same class could be doing the same test, but with different number operations. This means every child is actively involved in the lesson! This daily mental maths practice will be updated on a daily basis!

I have set myself the task of creating a Daily Multiplication Quiz - Day 2 - for my students. I found a cool old board in a junk shop and then went about using it to generate as many different numbers as I wanted in an exciting way. The kids who have tried this lesson have all really enjoyed themselves. Even better, if you try theDaily Multiplication Quiz - Day 2 - you will find you can have all the kids working on different times tables and still take the quiz as a whole class. You can even use it to teach them how to subtract numbers from 100 instead. Each day come back and try another version of this fun game!

Daily random numbers - Maths game. Every day I will generate 8 new numbers and as a creative maths teacher you can use them in the classroom. You could simply get the kids to make as many additions as possible in a certain amount of time, you could get them to add, divide, multiply or sort. If you stop the video after only 5 numbers, you could the class to work out how they can make 100 or as near to 100 as possible with just 5 numbers. It is a whole new concept in maths. Every day, for your maths warmup, you simply show them the latest video and then devise a simple, high speed maths game. You could even differentiate by getting different table to complete different tasks, all using the same numbers.

Fun Random Number Math Game - where I sound like a chipmunk. I generate 8 different numbers each day which my students use for adding, subtracting, multiplying and other exciting maths games. I sometimes just give them the first 5 numbers in the video and ask them to work out how they could make the number 100 using the 4 different number operations.

4 Dice Math Game was designed for teachers who need to use 4 dice in the classroom for a number of different reasons. They might need to generate 4 digit numbers, the dice could be used to make 2 x 2-digit numbers for math class. I made a full 10 minutes of dice shaking so teachers could start anywhere in the video to get completely random shakes every time. This is also an excellent resource for students to use to work out the probability of different numbers coming up.

I designed this Math Class Music video so the children just see dice being thrown again and again for 30 minutes. It is something you could put on your whiteboard while children are working in their books. It is relaxing to watch and of course, if a parent or another teacher comes in, they will dice and numbers and be convinced you have got the right math working atmosphere. Try Math Class Music and see if it makes a difference in your class. Do this while children colour something related to maths.

I hope you enjoy playing the 2 Dice Math Game as much as my class does.

I could not find any fun, free Year 1 Mental Maths tests. While I made a get set of PowerPoints yesrs ago, I have discovered, like everyone else, I simply don’t use PowerPoints anymore. I focus much more on YouTube and other video services. I thought I should get my resources up to date and so I have added a Year 1 Term 1 Mental Maths Test 1 for you to use.

Year 6 Block 2 Wigan Maths Assessment Using YouTube and PowerPoint Presentations I am now converting all my PowerPoint presentations into YouTube videos PowerPoint Combos. This means teachers can teach the lesson using either the PowerPoint or Youtube version of the lesson and then share the YouTube lesson with their students’ parents. This lesson can then be repeated at home as additional homework. I have always used the Wigan Maths Tests to prepare the students for their final exams. However, I wanted to improve it, so that I could ask a question and discuss the answer directly on the whiteboard and so I rewrote the tests as PowerPoint presentations. The students could do it together in the classroom or take them home as additional revision.

Year 5 Block 3 Termly Wigan Maths Assessments YouTube And PowerPoint Presentations I am now converting all my PowerPoint presentations into YouTube videos PowerPoint Combos. This means teachers can teach the lesson using either the PowerPoint or Youtube version of the lesson and then share the YouTube lesson with their students’ parents. This lesson can then be repeated at home as additional homework. I love Year 5 Wigan Maths Tests. While they are little old and don’t follow the current curriculum, they are still an excellent set of tests for revision purposes. I have taken the traditional tests and converted them all into PowerPoint presentations. On top of this, I have given teachers the option of either letting the students only see the answers at the end or after each question. I really like the second option as it means I can set a question, then give them a little time to think about it or discuss it in pairs and then show them the answer and discuss the different ways different children or different pairs found their answers. This is as much a learning experience as the test itself for many children. I really hope this pack is useful for lots of teachers.
