A short story following a rich child in Roman Britain with questions, useful as a reading comprehension exercise and/or a roman numeral revision exercise. Good for introducing or revising life in Roman Britain. Can be a good starting point for discussions or further reading.

A grid of numbers (A4) which reveals a picture of a pegasus (from Ancient Greek myths) when multiples of 4 (up to 48) are coloured in. Useful worksheet for practice ahead of the multiplication check in Year 4. Can be used as an independent extension or starter activity. Might be kept in a tray and used as a gap filler. An activity which can help to calm and regulate some children. A potential homework which is easy to understand, only requires a pen or pencil, and lends itself to be self-checked. Cut up one sheet up and give pieces of it to a group, for a teamwork activity with a shared goal. Accessible for multiple ability levels (although time taken may vary). I’ve found these useful to have in my back pocket as a teacher.

A grid of numbers (A4) which reveals a picture of a stone age hunter OR a deer depending on whether you colour in multiples of 3 or multiples of 4! This gives children some choice and if you print more, children can complete another copy of the same sheet! Themed for Stone Age. A fun way of demonstrating common factors. Useful worksheet for practice ahead of the multiplication check in Year 4. Can be used as an independent extension or starter activity. Might be kept in a tray and used as a gap filler. An activity which can help to calm and regulate some children. If printed twice, both pictures can combine into a longer scene.
