Task that asks pupils to interpret data about the performance of football teams and then place 10 teams into a league table based on the information provided. They will need to works systematically and use the following maths skills: ordering addition multiplication subtraction finding the difference use negative numbers in context copy and place data into a table correctly work logically and systematically Task can be differentiated by changing expectation of what you wish pupils to do - e.g. you might just ask children to order the teams and simply provide their total points. Greater depths could be asked to fill the whole table with minimal support. The cover page contains a couple of tips but this is down to the teacher to discretion as to how much support ‘tips’ they wish to provide.
