This shop is slowly being filled with my favourite lesson plans. I love it when I find a resource that gives a complete lesson without the need for any extras or tweaking so that's what I'm aiming to also give when I add a new resource on here.

This is a infinite resource created to be used regularly as a starter to really boost students' confidence in their numeracy skills. The resource is created in excel to provide randomly generated questions for almost every topic on the numeracy curriculum. There are 37 sets of 10 progressively more difficult questions, covering topics from (old) level 3 to level 8. As the questions are randomly generated, the resource can be used over and over again and the answers can be revealed through the toggle buttons. There's also a record sheet at the start that can be used to keep track of progress.
