An ideal activity for the first week back at school. Designed for Year 1 children, but could be edited for older children. 3 sheets to introduce children to the idea that Maths is all around us, and encourages them to think about their age, the number of letters in their name, how tall they are and so on.

This resource includes a teaching powerpoint with interactive activities. Within the powerpoint are printable differentiated varied fluency and reasoning and problem solving activities for Spring Block 2 (with answers). The powerpoint finishes with some Did You Know? Facts about money and a traffic light reflection task. All you need for Step 1, teaching your Year 3 children all about pounds and pence. I hope you enjoy this resource. Thank you :)

2 days of detailed planning to teach Year 1 children about halves and quarters. Day 1 recaps doubling in the mental oral starter and moves on to encourage children to investigate halving quantities using strips of paper with Spring themed pictures, unifix cubes and books/coins. Day 2 recaps halves of shapes in the mental oral starter and moves on to investigating quarters through Easter themed activities. Fun, hands on lessons which are clearly differentiated. A lovely introduction to fractions for young children.

Very simple powerpoint to help children understand how to quarter quantities through halving and halving again. Includes some simple word problems to check understanding.
