Once students have completed the woodland, they can create their own using the templates available or they can draw their own. They can create a festive woodland scene using their woodland sheets. Students have to think about dividing by other numbers than 2, but the difficulty lies within the primes of 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11. There are blank trees which could be used for a display too. **Merry Christma(th)s! ** ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳ ꙳

This activity is designed to practice: Multiplying and dividing numbers by 10, 100 and 1000 giving answers up to 3 decimal places Description of Activity: Students are to complete the table by multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 or 1000.

Description of Activity Students should complete each question individually and write their answers within the cross number. If a number contains a decimal point, the decimal point is placed in the same square as the unit digit E.g. 314.2 is written as: 3 1 4. 2 Questions vary in difficulty, rounding to decimal places, integers, and other powers of 10. Use the RAG analysis to track progress. Answers are provided within the cross number. Teaching hints and tips provided.

This negative number line can be used to facilitate learning both in class and at home. Many areas of the curriculum require knowledge of negative numbers including the four operations, real life problems with negative numbers, order of operations and ordering numbers. From my experience, vertical negative number lines can encourage a deeper understanding of the concepts of operations with negative numbers, as well as their application to more real life problems such as temperature, where the scale is usually vertical. Suggested uses: Print out each A4 page and cut out each diagram. Stick each diagram together using the tab to create a large vertical display of negative numbers. Note: Each diagram is around 20cm tall so printing full size will extend over 2m. If this is too large, print 2 pages per page.
