I’m upgrading all my free teaching resources to YouTube Maths PowerPoint Presentations. I feel modern teachers are moving away from PowerPoints and I want something they can share with the class and easily set as support at home. This FREE Year 1 Maths Youtube PowerPoint Presentation - Addition and Subtraction - Autumn Term is a great introduction to Addition and Subtraction. It would also be useful for anyone revising for the KS1 SATs tests. If you like this lesson, check out my FREE Year 1 Maths Lesson pack (11 lessons) at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/year-1-maths-powerpoint-lessons-6167046.
As my Anti-bullying posters (https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/10-free-anti-bullying-week-posters-for-every-classroom-download-and-share-today-11168376) proved so popular, I thought I would continue the series and create a set of motivational maths posters. You could add them to the classroom or all around the school. The would make an excellent resource for International Mathematics day, Pi day or any other numeracy day.
If you like these resources, please click the heart on this page to get informed of when I upload my next set of FREE poster resources.
Please also take the time to say something nice about these resources as you can imagine, they take a long time to make and nice comments motivate me to make more of them!
