I currently work at the top end of Primary school in Year 5/6. I create resources for a range of subjects and am always open to suggestions for resources people require.

A set of three differentiated worksheets that work on identifying how the perimeter can be the same but areas different and vice versa for Year 6 children. Having used a similar format in my own lessons, these sheets often provide enough challenge for two days lessons, with children taking on the easier work then moving on to harder challenges within the other sheets.
These have all been made with mastery in mind and so follow this pattern.
Worksheet One - Works on practise and fluency (LA)
Worksheet Two - Practise, fluency and reasoning (MA)
Worksheet Three - Practise, fluency, reasoning and problem solving (HA)
Worksheet Four - Same as worksheet three as a spare for anybody who finishes problem solving
Answers are not included for each sheet as they are too variable for most questions.

This has been made for children in either Year 3 or 4.
Mini Arithmetic tests made for Year 6 children to give them a chance to practise an Arithmetic style paper. These have been made as mini tests with 10 questions on each as a quick opportunity to practise different questions, become used to the grid and to increase their speed through regular practise.
Different activity sheets that give children questions that look at their fluency, reasoning or problem solving skills for that area of Maths with the answers included. Example questions from the sample reasoning papers and 2016 reasoning papers are also being included for mini practise.
More topics will continue to be included.
Attached is a presentation with 2 sets of 5 questions and a third set with 7 questions that acts as a teaching point for solving equations, using the bar model to help picture equations and answers afterwards.
The presentation is available as both a Notebook and PowerPoint. Also included is a worksheet that gets children to practise as you are delivering the input, checking understanding and helping develop their confidence. Take children through the five questions together at the same pace, ensuring that most if not all children are confident and ready to start their activities following the input.
These are based on ideas from Singapore and Shanghai and have worked extremely well with children, leading to children who normally struggle talking through methods to the class.
A range of resources to help children with different areas of Maths.
Included are:
A Maths game that works on revising some key vocabulary such as prime numbers, multiples and using the greater than and less than symbol as well as opening up varied discussion about why particular numbers fit where they do or why they should be used elsewhere. Everything needed to play this is attached including an explanation of the rules. Perfect for a starter, plenary or just for a 5-10 minute break where they can practise some reasoning activities.
Triangle facts - Multiplication or additions that work together to fill the gaps
Reasoning strategies - A list of potential ways to check children's reasoning abilities
Reasoning speech bubbles - Example speech bubbles of how to begin answers to reasoning questions
Part to whole bar models - Two part and three part bar models with an answer on top and numbers below that make it - Works for all operations
Part to whole circles - Two part and three part circles with an answer on the left and numbers to the right that make it - Works for all operations
Number fact circle - A number in the middle surrounded by facts around the outside e.g. 50 in the middle and 10 x 5 outside in one circle
Number fact circle 2 - Branching facts that feed into one another

Within this there are help sheets, showing how to do different operations with fractions through the maths and also through showing pictorial representations, generally using the bar model.
After the help sheets most topics include practise questions and then questions that challenge children's fluency, reasoning and problem solving abilities.
This can be used for a range of things, whether it be just to print the help sheets to encourage children to be independent or to give children a practise activity or activity that requires them to think more deeply.
Two sheets that look at helping children understand how to convert from an improper fraction to a mixed number fraction and vice versa. Both include pictorial representations to help children understand what the fraction looks like as well as having a colour coded step of instructions to complete it mathematically.
