You have enough to do so let me do some of the hard work for you. I have been a teacher in England for almost 10 years but I've been working in schools even longer than that. I have taught across year groups from Year 2 upwards in primary schools therefore I know what good resources look like and require. I also know how little time teachers have to prepare quality resources so wanted to share great resources for teachers to have the option of using instead of creating their own from scratch.

The children can choose where to place their rides and how the spacing of their rides is important and why area skills fit into the context of real world problems. As an additional task, they can solve the perimeter of each of their rides.
