I have been a primary school teacher for 14 years both in the UK and internationally. I am taking a break from education, so I thought it was about time to put some of the resources I have created to good use (again). I have an abundance of resources so keep a look out as I will be adding them gradually. Thanks for checking out my shop!

Graph story

Graph story

(1)
I used this resource with a year 3/4 class when introducing the concept of line graphs. This is a great way to get the children to understand trends before actually having to plot or read graphs. The children create their own 'graph story' by looking at the data and coming up with a feasible explanation of what might have happened to create the data. Comparing ideas was also fun!

I devised these worksheets for repetitive use over a week. The children would repeat one sheet daily for a week to help them improve their mental addition and subtraction agility.
The capacity challenge

The capacity challenge

(0)
This activity was used as part of a measures workshop I taught in Grade 1. On the table were different labelled containers and in the middle of the table was a large basin of water with a plastic cup inside. The idea was to observe the children's mathematical thinking and problem solving skills throwing in questions now and then to support their autonomy. A really nice workshop - great and simple activity.

Rounding ppt

This is a resource that could be used as an introduction or initial assessment. The children will need whiteboards and pens and will demonstrate their understanding of rounding based on the position of the number on a numberline as well as by looking at the end digit.
Show me, Make me

Show me, Make me

(0)
A ppt game designed to be used while teaching place value with base 10 blocks. The children use a selection of 1's, 10's and 100's as well as a whiteboard and pen, to either show the number that is being represented in blocks, or use the blocks to make a given number. This is a great activity for quick teacher assessment and can be used at the start of a unit to help with grouping or at any point to assess learning so far. I used this resource with a clever little Grade 1 class, but it is easily used from year 1-6 as the numbers/blocks can be adapted to suit.

Estimating with capacity

Estimating with capacity

(0)
A simple sheet I used in Kindergarten (ESL children) where they had to estimate which container would have the biggest/smallest capacity, then measure by counting cups of water to fill each container. A fun activity to reinforce capacity.
