Outdoor Maths - What's My Picture Worth?
This PDF resource is an outdoor maths lesson which involves using multiplication and addition to find the value of a picture.
Children use sticks, stones and pine cones to create a picture. Each resource is then assigned a value e.g., sticks = 10, stones = 5 and pine cones = 2. They then calculate the value of their picture. for round 2, the values are doubled, children find the value of another groups picture and in the final round they can choose their won values.
Once back in the classroom, there is a differentiated challenge question and plenary to be completed.
There is also an outdoor themed warm up activity plus 3 different picture cards to calculate the value (scaffolding), a sheet to record the value of each resource so they don’t forget and a printable LI and SC page.

Fraction Word Problem (write-the-room)
This PDF resource contains a set of 24 fraction word problems. Also included is a recording sheet, answer sheet, instructions and front cover.
Write the room is a great game - children are required to be active in their learning and will answer multiple questions.
I like to place the cards around the room, set a timer (often 5 - 10 minutes) and the pupils will work their way through the cards solving as many as they can in the time given.
Revision Rings (Whole Number)
Whole Number Revision Rings:
place value
multiplication and division
rounding
addition and subtraction
Each ring contains 35 numbered questions with a range of difficulty. My students enjoy using this mostly as a fast finisher activity, they grab a ring and a whiteboard, write down the number of the question and their answer. If they leave their whiteboard out I know it means they would like me to check their answers. I have also used these as a plenary - a child will select a number at random, I read out the question which they write on a sticky note along with their answer - I usually encourage them to write a sentence explaining to me how they solved the question. Once prepped these are great to just grab and go and can be used multiple ways - above are just a couple of suggestions!
Place Value Orienteering
This PDF contains the resources to set up an outdoor maths orienteering style game. There are 2 games and 3 levels of difficulty - numbers to 1,000,000, numbers to 100,000 and numbers to 10,000. The 2 games require: Game 1) learners to write the standard, word and extended form of 12 numbers (found at each orienteering"flag". Game 2) Learners need to understand a digits place and value i.e., find the flag with a 7 a in the thousands place.
Please note: this resource uses the term units.

I have also including noughts and crosses markers which can be used although the game boards could also be laminated and marked on using a whiteboard pen.
Aim of the game: 2 players, each player takes turns to select a free square and answer the question, if correct they may place their marker on the square. First player to win 4 in a row horizontally, vertically or diagonally wins the game.
Snakes and Ladders Maths Activity
This resource can be used as an independent fast finisher or group activity. There are 48 cards, learners are directed to select 8 cards (4 snakes and 4 ladders), and find the fractions of the shape on each card. There is also a sheet to record their answers and an extension at the end for them to create their own cards to be added. The snakes and ladders is just a theme, this resource is not related to the traditional snakes and ladders game.
Plenary Labels
A set of labels that be used with any subject to recap the lesson, this will help to determine a learner’s understanding. There are 6 different types of labels. Each page should be printed onto 8 per page labels. Make sure you set your printing setting to the correct setting - I have used Avery L7165 label settings.
True/False Addition and Subtraction with QR Codes

For each level there is 12 true addition facts, 12 true subtraction facts, 12 false addition facts and 12 false subtraction facts. Each card contains a QR code which, when scanned, will tell learners if there have correctly identified if the fact is true or false.
I ask learners to work as a group, they must each solve the questions and share if they find the fact to be true or false. As a group they should sort the cards into a true pile and a false pile. Either as they go, or when finished, they should scan the QR code to self check their work.

Missing Angle: Write the Room
A set of 24 missing angle (write the room) cards. Also included is a recording sheet and an answer page - all cards require children to find the missing angle in a right angle.
This can be played in several way but I like to get my students up and moving so I place all cards around the room. I set a timer on the board (somewhere between 5- 10 minutes) and ask students to walk round the room and find the answer to each card.
Cards can be answered in any order but make sure students check the card number in the corner and write the answer in the correct box on the recording sheet.
Missing Angle: I have, Who has...?
A set of 30 cards. Each card contains a missing angle within a right angle that needs to be calculated.
How to play:
1.Distribute one card to each student, then distribute the extras to strong students in the beginning and to random students as the class becomes more familiar with the deck.
As you distribute the cards, encourage students to begin thinking about what the missing angle on their card might be so that they are prepared to answer. When all cards are distributed, select any student to begin (cards will look back to beginning player). Play continues until the game loops back to the original card.
After the class is comfortable with this game format, consider using a stopwatch to time the class game. Record the time on the board so that students try each game to beat their current best time. This practice encourages students to stay attentive.
Other ways to play:
•Spread the cards out on the table – children place the cards in the right order (in a group/pair/individually).
