<p>Four examples/questions on prime factor trees using the ‘Backward Faded’ structure whereby the scaffolding given is gradually removed and students need to fill in an increasing number of steps.</p> <p>Colour coding has been added to help students see the structure of the solutions.</p> <p>Can be used as independent investigation work for new topics, structured practice for topics already taught, or as whole class examples for the teacher to talk through.</p>

<p>A crossnumber focused on fractions of amounts. Perfect for extensions, or a problem solving lesson. Solutions and original document included.</p> <p>Includes palindromics and primes for a small number of clues. I have used with calculators and without depending on the focus and time available.</p>

<p>A small set of questions on parallel and perpendicular lines using the structure ‘change one number so that…’. PDF and original word documents included.</p> <p>These questions are a high ceiling task for extensions, or to summarise the topic. Students must change only a single number to make the pair of lines parallel or perpendicular. More able students will be able to give multiple answers and confirm that all possible solutions have been found.</p>
