I'm a tired teacher just like you; fighting to balance the importance of my own life with the fun and high level of education I want to give my students.
I hope these resources save you time so you can focus on the important things in life.

A series of multiplication and division question divided into three levels of spice.
The questions have a common castles theme and are written in the same style found in KS1 SATs papers.
Appropriate to challenge y1, prepare y2 for SATs or to revise/assess early in y3.
19 celebrity profiles (including Mo Salah, Little Mix, Boris), all using multiplication, division, addition and subtraction sums to reveal information about themselves.
I have included one more difficult set of sheets with larger numbers and trickier calculations, the second should be accessible to children who have a grasp of basic multiplication. These are word documents but can be easily displayed on the whiteboard for a whole class lesson.
There are blank templates at the end of the document which I have sent home as a homework (encouraging them to research a celebrity themselves linked to another subject), used as a peer challenge (one child must create the questions and sums for another), a weekly challenge (lasted 2 terms for me and I printed the sheets in a3 and placed them on the wall for pupils to complete first thing in the morning) and also as a start up in the beginning of an ofsted lesson.
Hope this saves you some time :)
