Fun, fully interactive and challenging with working 50/50 lifelines. An excellent way to assess or embed skills.
There are 15 questions, testing children's ability to multiply and divide by 10, 100 and 1000 (including decimals).
N.B The original logos for Who Wants to be a Millionaire are property of Sony Pictures Television. For this reason they have not been included, but a similar non-trademarked version has.
- Calculate the area of quadrilaterals including squares, rectangles, trapeziums and parallelograms.
- Calculate the area of triangles
- Calculate the area of compound shapes, including shapes with missing lengths and decimal sides.
Differentiated. Now includes a PowerPoint and pdf to help with teaching and display (found in the quadrilaterals section)
Perfect for revising, assessment or purely for fun, this fully interactive game features increasingly challenging questions including:
How many integers can be made from an improper fraction
Missing denominators in mixed numbers
Equivalencies
Calculations
Word problems
…and more!
This fully interactive high-quality gameshow features all the drama of the TV show. Each possible answer is linked to either a pass or fail screen indicating the amount of money ‘won’. A free trial of my best-in-class version is available here:

Included in this resource are 12 nets for 3D shapes. All shapes have tabs, meaning that they can be independently cut out and stuck together in a lesson. Also included is a step-by-step how to calculate volume PowerPoint that uses formulas as well as measurements.
Shapes include:
Cube
Cuboid
Icosohedron
Square Based Pyramid
Triangle Based Pyramid
Cone
Octagonal Prism
Hexagonal Pyramid
Octahedron
Cylinder
Die (cube with dots on)
Triangular Prism
Featuring a Roman Numeral version of my best-in-class Millionaire Quiz, these assessment tools are perfect to engage children with the concept of Roman Numerals.
Meeting all of the requirements of the national curriculum for Roman Numerals, this quiz is a fun way to assess and show progress.
This resource will save you many hours work when trying to use Assessment for Learning in your class.
There are two QLA grids included in one Excel document for help with Gap Analysis.
Arithmetic
Reasoning
Input the data using the marks from the papers and the grid will change colour to show where a child has been successful or not answered a question correctly, or at all.
The spreadsheet will auto-calculate how successful the whole cohort has been on particular questions. These are linked directly to the WRM small steps so you can see which lessons and steps need to be revised. 30 children can be entered in this document.
The total score thresholds auto-calculate and change colour to help indicate which children are working at approximately an expected standard (EXS) level or a Greater Depth (GDS) level. These thresholds use historical KS2 SATs thresholds to make them as accurate as possible.
Please note, some of the cells are locked for editing so that users do not break the spreadsheet functionality. Passwords will not be given out. However, I am more than happy to assist with any adaptations you need.
Additionally, I am in no way affiliated with White Rose Maths. No White Rose Maths resources are included in this product. Freely available content is linked to within it.
Two differentiated activity sheets where children are required to recognise 2D shapes.
Lower Ability - Ten shapes that need to be matched to their names.
Higher Ability - Twelve shapes on a sheet that children need to name (no names given to match).
A complete bundle of Gap Analysis Grids (Reading, GPS, Spelling, Arithmetic and Reasoning) for the 2016 KS1 SATs assessments. I have also included links to the papers, the mark schemes and the conversion grids within each spreadsheet.
This resource contains an editable A3-sized Place Value grid that is colourful and large enough to put counters on for a fun, practical (concrete) Maths activity. I currently have 30 of these laminated for use.
One side has the place value columns written in words and the other as numerals.
The PowerPoint that accompanies this is perfect for input and covers:
- Reading numbers expressed on a place value grid.
- Writing numbers expressed as counters.
- Recognising what happens when we shift counters left and right.
- and more…
Complete suite of Gap Analysis grids for the 2016 & 2017 KS1 SATs. Reading, Maths and GPS papers for each year plus links to the matching assessments.
Please read each resources page for a more detailed breakdown of the contents.
Included in this resource are three differentiated activity sheets for children to use to develop their understanding of the column method for addition and subtraction, short and long multiplication, mental division, short division and long division. All activity sheets have contextual problems to attempt.
Answer sheets are included and an editable version of each sheet is included so that you can tailor each activity to your own cohort.
There are four challenges per sheet, designed to be completed in a single lesson.
This resource contains five quick fire activities that will develop children’s understanding of place value. A pdf and word version is included so you can edit the numbers to suit your class’s ability.
The resource contains a double-sided A3 place value grid to support children who need to physically represent numbers (concrete) or practice their pictorial skills before moving on to mental abstract concepts.
Quick fire activity sheet with five activities:
1. Insert inequality symbols
2. Arrange in ascending order.
3. Arrange in descending order.
4. Explain how numbers are similar and/or different.
5. State the next two terms in a sequence.
Ideal for revision, assessment or purely for fun, this fully interactive game features increasingly challenging questions including:
- Scale
- Recipes (quantities, mass etc.)
- Calculating a proportion
- Calculating a ratio
- Determining a total
- ...and more!

This resource contains three differentiated codebreaking activities that will help you assess children's understanding of multiplication. Each activity has a detailed answer sheet with it. Furthermore, on each sheet there is an optional speed challenge - perfect for building up fluency.
Bronze level – Short Multiplication
Silver Level – Long Multiplication
Gold Level –Long multiplication with decimals
This is a differentiated worksheet to help children master angles on a straight line.
Children are challenged to:
- name the type of angle a ‘missing angle’ is.
- calculate its size in degrees
- measure it accurately using a protractor.
There are two sheets, an Expected Standard sheet and a more challenging Greater Depth sheet (2016+ Curriculum). On each sheet there are nine missing angles, meaning that children have 27 things to do in order to complete one activity sheet.
Please rate and/or comment. All feedback is valuable.
This activity will help children meet the Roman Numeral curriculum statements for Year 5 and is excellent revision for Year 6.
Included are:
- 17 questions where the children need to change Roman Numerals into Arabic Numbers (the numbers we are familiar with)
- 5 questions where they need to turn Arabic Numbers into Roman Numerals
- 6 questions where they must complete a calculation in Roman Numerals and give their answer as both Roman Numerals and Arabic Numbers - excellent for your 'More Able' learners.
.....and an answer sheet for all activities.
Activities are given as both a word document and a pdf.
Please comment/rate this resource as all feedback is valuable.
This is an activity that will challenge all children in a class. Suitable for Years 5-8 (depending on ability).
To complete this activity children will need to:
- recall the number of sides for polygons down to a dodecagon
- use algebra to calculate the sum of the interior angles for each shape
- find the size of each interior angle using logic (division)
- calculate the size of each exterior angle (180 - interior angle = exterior angle)
This will get the room buzzing and you'll see your children using many skills during the same lesson.
I have colour banded the activity four ways:
-Blue (easiest)
-White (Middle)
- Green (challenging)
- Purple (Mastery)
Please comment on and rate this resource.
