A set of 8 worksheets following on from the scheme of work and reinforcing the concept that the denominator can be changed when you multiply a fraction by 1. They can be completed by hand or electronically on a PC/tablet.

An investigative approach to equivalent fractions for years 3/4/5 to promote a deeper understanding of fractions and how number can be manipulated to solve problems in different contexts. The scheme of work is complete with resources included. However a further follow-on resource pack will be available for purchase at a later date.

Practice in calculating fractions of numbers. The tasks can be completed by hand or on a tablet/computer. The diagrams can be tailored to meet the criteria for real-life problems.

These are four whole class/group activities for upper primary pupils to develop and reinforce understanding of, and mental dexterity with, place value and larger numbers. They each provide 30 questions to ask around the class or group.

The principle objective of this activity is to teach systematic thinking, in this case to test numbers chronologically with their factor partners up to the square root to ensure that all the factors are found as quickly as possible. It also provides opportunities to consolidate knowledge and understanding of times tables, square and prime numbers, mental strategies for calculating division, and the efficiency of using divisibility rules. The sheets can be completed by hand or electronically on a PC or tablet. It is an exciting and popular task, especially when used as a daily warm up in the form of a race. The race ends when a child finds the full solution, with merits for the winner and runners up. With a robust group the pupil sheets can be abandoned and the task completed on individual white boards, so the children are not prompted with the correct format and number of factors. When the number of factors is high you will find children calling time when they are a pair or two short, and having to go back to the drawing board; this all adds to the excitement. The pack contains a set of three sheets, one in each of three levels of difficulty. Coming soon: A pack containing a set of sixty sheets, twenty in each of three levels of difficulty, along with a set of blank grids to make further sheets.

This is a scheme of work to introduce the concept of factors through the investigation of the shape of numbers, and to encourage the use of a systematic approach to problem solving. Five activity sheets are included. There is also a related follow-up collection of sixty short factor-finding investigations in three packs of twenty, each at different levels of difficulty. These can be purchased separately.

These are three whole class/group activities for secondary or more confident upper primary pupils to develop and reinforce understanding of, and mental dexterity with, place value and larger numbers. They each provide fifty two questions to ask around the class or group.

The principle objective of this activity is to teach systematic thinking, in this case to test numbers chronologically with their factor partners up to the square root to ensure that there are no factors missing, and they are identified as quickly as possible. It also provides opportunities to consolidate knowledge and understanding of times tables, square and prime numbers, mental strategies for calculating division, and the efficiency of using divisibility rules. The sheets can be completed by hand or electronically on a PC or tablet. The sheets can be used as homework, or as a time-filler to occupy more able children. It is also an exciting and popular task when used as a daily warm up in the form of a race. The race ends when a child finds the full solution, with merits for the winner and runners up. With a robust group the pupil sheets can be abandoned and the task completed on individual white boards, so the children are not prompted with the correct format and number of factors. When the number of factors is high you will find children calling time when they are a pair or two short, and having to go back to the drawing board; this all adds to the excitement. The pack contains a set of twenty sheets at the mid level. There is a further set of twenty sheets progressing to a higher level of difficulty and a related scheme of work that can be purchased separately.
