A fully resourced lesson plan for children to apply their skills in calculating the area and perimeter in a real life situation.
Children are presented with a floor plan of carefully proportioned rooms. Within the pack, you will find three differentiated tables for different abilities of children to complete. Each table includes a short list of rooms which are relevant to that ability group. Children calculate the area of carpet and the perimeter of skirting board their rooms require.
Low ability - rectangular rooms
Average ability - rectilinear rooms
High ability - includes triangular areas and 'holes' in the shape
This lesson was originally designed for a Year 5/6 class.
3 fully-prepared resources that are ready to go!
Covers the 2014 National Curriculum's core aims - fluency, reasoning and problem solving.
The lessons have been used to secure an outstanding grading in a lesson observation with a Year 5 class.
3 lesson plans for KS2, each including a starter, a differentiated main activity, a mini plenary, an extension activity and a plenary.
All resources included within the pack, including a letter from Henry VIII and maps of Henry's gardens.
Investigation approach used to ensure deep understanding of perimeter and area.
The lessons currently centre around King Henry VIII's gardens to link to a Tudor topic, but they could easily be adapted to fit in with your topic by simply changing the main character from Henry VIII to another individual who might own a large amount of land.
The three lessons focus on different parts of King Henry VIII’s gardens:
• Lesson 1: The Knot Gardens (a perimeter investigation)
• Lesson 2: The Rose Gardens (finding the area of rectangles and rectilinear shapes)
• Lesson 3: The Stables (an investigation into the relationship between area and perimeter)
My class loved this sequence of lessons. Please leave feedback - I'd love to hear how you get on with them!
A self-contained game to be played in pairs.
Use to revise reading coordinates on a grid. Best played once coordinates have already been introduced, as a consolidating activity.

A revision pack for Year 6 pupils to revise their number knowledge in the lead up to the Key Stage 2 SATs.
Carefully created for the 2014+ curriculum.
The 7 worksheets include place value, rounding, negative numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, written and mental calculations, factors, simplifying fractions, comparing fractions, adding and subtracting fractions, finding a fraction of a number, finding a percentage of a number, equivalences between fractions, decimals and percentages and problem solving.
So that the pack can be used as a homework task, an answer sheet is included to pass on to parents so that work can be marked as the child goes along if appropriate.
Also a list of useful websites is included in the pack, indicating where to start for any further revision.

Save £2 when bought together!
These three games are the perfect way for children to revise their number vocabulary, coordinates and times tables skills.
The games are the perfect resource to have for a discrete lesson or prepared and ready to use for interventions, plenaries, early finishers and morning starters. They encourage children to revisit the same basic maths skills on a 'little and often' basis to boost children's knowledge and recall.
All three games have been thoroughly tried and tested to give you a robust game that can be enjoyed by a range of primary ages. You will wonder how you coped without them!
A game that can be played in pairs, threes or independently. Please note that this game focuses on times tables facts from 2 to 10 to ensure children are confident in these tables before progressing to the 11s and 12s, which will need to be taught subsequently.
Children need a 'Table Splat' mat and counters (different coloured counters for each child). Children take turns to turn over a card, revealing a times tables question. The child who is the first to place their counter on the correct answer (whilst shouting 'SPLAT!') can leave their counter on the board. The winner is the player with the most counters on the board once all of the times table cards have been used.
Differentiate by choosing the multiplication cards relevant for that child, depending on which times table they are currently working on.
*Update: 6s and 9s have been underlined, to avoid confusion.*

I created this as a four week homework programme for my Year 6s to practise their calculation methods whilst encouraging parental involvement.
After a parent workshop to introduce the methods my school uses to teach the main calculation methods (not included), each child took home a game board (included) and one set of calculation cards each week (included) as their maths homework for 4 weeks:
Week 1: Addition
Week 2: Subtraction
Week 3: Multiplication
Week 4: Division
I asked the children to record who they had played the game against at home and encouraged them to play for 10 minutes a day to practise their written methods. I have seen huge improvements in my Year 6 class's written calculation skills as a consequence and many parents have commented how it has helped them to understand the calculation methods too.
I designed this as a fun game to practise the written methods of calculation. Although I chose the option of encouraging the link between home and school and asking the parents to join in too, alternatively you might decide that the game is best in your school to be played in the classroom as a morning starter or within intervention sessions.
A set of instructions is included.
Please note, fraction questions are not included in this game, as I wanted it to focus purely on numerical written methods.
I am currently working on differentiated packs of cards so that this game can also be given to younger year groups.
A lot of time and love has gone into this project, and I hope you and your class enjoy it. I'd appreciate any feedback.
This pack will guide children through the areas of maths that will appear in the KS2 Paper 1: Arithmetic. Created for the 2014+ Curriculum, all of the questions are strongly linked to those found in the sample paper, but are sorted by area of Mathematics to aid revision.
A perfect revision book for the week leading up to the KS2 SATs, so that children can practise all of the main concepts required for the test.
8 pages including cover page, instructions and answer page. A low ink version is also provided.
Use either within the classroom, or as homework. Answers are provided to either help the teacher with the marking or to give to parents/children for self marking at home.

Vocabulary cards for the key KS2 2D shapes required for the Year 6 SATs under the 2014 curriculum.
I used these Geometry cards for the children to sort into 'families' of shapes to see the connections between various 2D shapes.
The children then categorised various 2D shapes using Venn and Carol Diagrams.
A game for children to practise and develop their understanding of place value.

Pick a times table for your children to work on, give them the board game and off you go! Travel around the board collecting as many Easter eggs as you can. To win an Easter egg, just land on an Easter egg space and answer the times table question correctly. Keep going until either a player has collected a certain number of Easter eggs or until the time runs out.
You might choose to give children just one set of times table cards to focus on, or give them a range of times tables cards to make the game even more challenging!
Perfect to use as a morning starter, an end of lesson extension, a golden time activity or an intervention to practise times tables.
I hope your children enjoy this Easter treat!
