A reasoning and problem solving worksheet to use alongside the White Rose Maths scheme. Please note, this resource differs from my others, in that I have chosen not to differentiate it. I made this decision on reflection that all questions are quite open ended and therefore differentiation would happen naturally in the way children went about the questions. Answers are also included.
This worksheet is for Year 4, Spring Block 2 (Area), focusing on the third small step of making shapes. As explained above, differentiation is expected to happen more naturally with these tasks, however as a guide, it could be differentiated as follows:
• Working Towards Expected Level: These children will focus more on basic shapes of squares and rectangles.
• Expected Level: These children will be working with whole squares and squares with a value of 1cm sq but will be using rectilinear shapes.
• Working at greater depth: These children could be challenged by asking them to use half squares and making the value of squares greater than 1cm sq.
The worksheet contains a total of 6 questions. These questions could be used as a whole, or cut up into strips for a shorter task. They could also be used for partner work, depending on the ability of the children.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Likewise, I am still developing these resources, so any helpful comments would also be appreciated.
