The lesson includes lots of differentiated practice questions and a printable differentiated worksheet for independent work at the end. The answers are on the last slide. Blue = LA Orange = MA Red = HA

This is a lesson on reflecting shapes along the x-axis and y-axis that I did with my year 6 class. The lesson includes a mental maths starter, chances for discussion of the method and teacher modelling, differentiated practice questions which can be completed on laminated four quadrant grids and worksheets that are differentiated for LA, MA and HA.

An entire lesson on finding the radius and diameter of circles used to teach my year 6 class. The lesson has chances for the teacher to discuss and model the method, differentiated practice slides and a final three slides which can be printed off as a worksheets, starting with LA, then MA and HA. Finally, I have included challenge questions which can be displayed while the children are working independently and that they can complete when they have finished.

This lesson includes a PowerPoint that has differentiated practice questions and the answers. The practice questions are multi-step word problems involving multiplication, addition, subtraction and one with multiplication of decimals (money context) and working out the change. The worksheets are differentiated for HA, MA and LA with questions similar to those of the slides.

This is a full lesson for a year 6 class that involves practising answering division word problems in which you have to interpret the remainder. This should be done after your class have revised using the formal written method of division. There is a PowerPoint included with plenty of practise questions for you to get your class to discuss in talkl partners. The worksheets are diferentiated 3 ways for lower, middle and higher attainers in Maths.

This is a lesson that I gave my year 6 class about converting from the 12 hour and 24 hour time. Please look at the notes at the bottom of the slides. The lesson begins with lots of opportunity to model and discuss converting. Then there are differentiated practice questions with answers on the next slides for the class to practise on their whiteboards. There is a slide with differentiated questions for independent work which can be printed off or you can get your class to work from the board to save paper! While the children are working independently, I always display the LO slide with the challenge question so that any children who finish early can have an extra challenge. I have also included the answers on a slide so you can quickly mark or get the class to mark their own work and save your valuable teacher time! Print out the blank clock faces for your unconfident time-tellers.

This is a reading comprehension that I gave my year 6 class for homework based on the first part of chapter 1 of the novel ‘When Hitler Stole Pink Rabbit’. It inludes the text, questions and answers. It was also part of my efforts to encourage my class to read the actual book which is in our class library! The comprehension has 11 questions that are suitable for your LA, MA and HA children. The questions are a mixture of retrieval and inference.

This is a lesson that I used to teach my year 6 class about finding the area of a rectangle and of composite shapes (we did a lesson on perimter the day before). The lesson starts off with a starter finding the perimeter. It then offers opportunities to discuss the meaning of perimeter and area and to model the method. Next, there are slides with differentiated practice questions for the class to do on their whiteboards. The answers are on the next slides so that you can quickly check their work. On the penultimate slide there is the Learning Objective and a challenge to complete once they’ve finished their work. Worksheets are differentiated for LAs, MAs and HAs. I have included the answers for worksheets too to make teacher marking easier or for you to give to your class to mark their own work!

This is a complete lesson that I gave to my year 6 class on rounding decimal numbers with up to 3 decimal places to the nearest whole, tenth and hundredth; 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? The lesson is differentiated three ways for lower attaining, middle attaining and higher.

This is a resource that I prepared for my year 6 class in Maths on word problems. The word problems all involve addition and subtraction, some in the context of money. The LO is to choose the appropriate method because some questions can be answered using the formal written method and some might need another method like using a number line to work out how much change is due. This is superb SATs revision! Along with a powerpoint, I have also included worksheets that are differentiated for Lower, middle and higher. (*, ** and *** next to Learning Objective to show you which is which). The answers for each level are at the end of the work document. Before this lesson I would recommend do a revision lesson on addition and subtraction of decimals. Concentrate most of your teaching on how to use a number line but get the class to look at each practice question with a critical eye. I didn’t get through all the practice questions on the slides but there are more than needed just in case you need!

This lesson goes through (on a PowerPoint) how to estimate and measure angles. It includes some slides with opportunities for the teacher to model how to correctly place the protractor, slides to revise the different kinds of angles and a differentiated slide at the end that you can give a more confident class to do. If your class is like mine, I have included a worksheet (differentiated three ways on Word document) that has the angles already drawn out.

This is a complete 2 lessons that I gave to my year 6 class on finding percentages of amounts; they include 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. I have differentiated the work for LA, MA, HA and HHA. 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?

This is an entire lesson on converting metric units of capacity and mass that I did with my year 6 class. There is a starter on multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000 to prepare them for the lesson. There are opportunities to discuss which units of measurement they would use to measure certain items and to deepen their understanding of units of measurement (even better if this can be done alongside physical objects). There are lots of differentiated practice questions to complete on the whiteboards (with answers on next slide to quickly check). There is a slide with the Learning Objective and a challenge question which I display while they’re completing independent work. I have included a slide which has work for LA, MA and HA and can be printed off or the class can choose their level from the board (save paper). I have included the answers on the last slides so that you can mark quickly or get the class to mark their own work! I have also included practice SATs style questions to stick in the books as a challenge when marking.

Challenge question which they can complete after finishing independent work.

These 4 PowerPoint (which all contain animated slides) lessons feature plenty of visual explanations of dividing a fraction by a whole number (by finding the equivalent fraction) and also the quicker method. Prior learning recommended: equivalent fractions and putting fractions into their simplest form. There are lots of differentiated practice questions with the answers of the next slide. For independent work, there is a differentiated slide which can be printed as a worksheet or the pupils can work from the board (if you want to save paper!). I have included the answers at the end to save teacher time -why not get your class to mark their own work!
