The pages in this book are designed to support the Mathematics Curriculum. Year 1 of the Mathematics Curriculum is focused mainly on number and the manipulation of small numbers. Students should be able to count to 10 and add, subtract and multiply numbers with totals up to 10. They should also be able to recognise shapes and compare lengths areas and capacities. Finally, they should be able to follow or give directions forward, back, turn left and turn right.
Hope you enjoy this FREE resource. Hand it on to your colleagues and don’t forget to visit my shop and download the other free books for Years 1 and 2. There are also some you can buy!
This sampler consists of 60 free pages from Part 2 of my resource Mathematics for Years 2 and 3. Please use these pages in class and if you like them, purchase all 260 pages for only £3.
Download 1 has 110 pages of worksheets. It is arranged in 3 sections. The first section introduces several topics that are important in early mathematics learning such as drawing graphs and shapes. However, there are also excellent practise sheets on counting and ordering numbers. Section 2 is concerned with counting numbers up to 20 and writing them in order. This topic is introduced in a number of interesting but different ways to help consolidate the concept. Section 3 consolidates the arithmetic concepts of addition and subtraction with many interesting examples to practise on. These pages are ideally used in class alongside the second download.
Download 2 contains 155 pages. This is also arranged in 3 sections and can be photocopied as 3 separate workbooks for students to take as homework, or the pages can be used in parallel with the other resource. If students are taking home a visible homework book, then parents are happy. Working through the pages in each of these downloads help consolidate learning of the concepts, give your students a good grounding in the basics of number and introduce your students to work being covered in mathematics in the next few years.
These sheets contain 3 end-of-term or last period, end-of-week activities. They are also something visible for the students to take home and all are a lot of fun.
I Know Your Number
This is just a little fun activity that students cut out and show to their friends and family. The template can be photocopied onto normal paper or card. There is some mathematics involved with the placement of the numbers in the master card and the way the templates are designed, but overall it is best to leave that up to the better students to investigate and further develop in their own time.
Five Card Addition
Although it only contains level 2 addition, with this exercise students have a lot of fun and will not realise the number of additions that they are actually performing. If they take the cards home and play the trick 10 times they are potentially completing 10 additions. Compare that with giving them 10 arithmetic sums for homework. How many would actually do these when they went home? The exercise is also a good introduction to BEMA (order of operations).
The Mind Reader
Like the previous exercise this is a lot of fun for students but they are actually completing a lot of good addition for totals between 1 and 63. For example if the number 63 was chosen, the mind reader would have to add 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32. Therefore they should be practising some good numeracy strategies in each of the additions such as making 10s and adding in parts.
This booklet is designed to help Year 7 and Year 8 students develop and build skills in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The sample pages are taken from my larger 2 booklets on general maths practice for Years 7 and 8. While this sample only covers arithmetic the other 200 page booklets cover all maths topics and are of similar style. Download it, it is free to use and distribute. While you are at my shop download the other free booklets for Years 1 up to Year 8 and send on to your colleagues.
This is the full part 1 of my 3 part, easy-to-follow series of fun activities designed to stimulate and challenge the maturing mathematician. Download the other FREE samples for other years and distribute to your colleagues! The whole series can be purchased from this site for only £3. This booklet (Part 1) covers methods of multiplication, number patterns, ordinals and counting up to 1000, adding and subtracting strategies, fractions and money calculations.
Not all worksheets are created equal. Each page in this series delivers value. They are not just to keep students busy and occupied but they are designed to directly support active and progressive learning.By the end of the book students will have a better awareness of numbers and number relationships and more confidence when manipulating larger numbers.
Here is information about the other books in the series.
Part 2 covers number sequences, arithmetic strategies, measurement and fractions. By the end of the book students will have gained confidence with arithmetic and will recognize the value of each digit that makes up a number
Part 3 covers arithmetic strategies, fractions, statistics and measurement. By the end of the book students will be confident in their ability to manipulate numbers.
Success and confidence in mathematics will lead to an increase in motivation and an enjoyment of learning. This resource can be as separate extra sheets to reinforce concepts being taught in class or copied into 3 booklets for students to take and study at home. This will complement school work and have an enormous impact on future academic achievement.
This is 80 page resource is Part 1 of my 3 part series of fun mathematics activities for Years 5/6 students. It is a structured, easy to follow series designed to stimulate and challenge. If you have used the other books series from Years 1 - 6 then you will be familiar with the structure. If you are not familiar then download the rest of the free samples and distribute to your colleagues.
This booklet (Part 1) covers: numbers and place value to 1000, arithmetic strategies, adding and subtracting in columns, fractions, equivalent fractions, adding fractions and multiplication strategies. By the end of this section students will be more confident with larger numbers and arithmetic. Awareness of larger number relationships will give more confidence when manipulating numbers.
To receive the other 2 booklets then go to my shop and you can get them for only £3. Part 2 covers: place value and number relationships, adding and subtracting fractions, decimals and decimal arithmetic, graphs and handling data, units of measure, perimeter, area, angles, multiplication strategies, division and averages.
Part 3 covers fun arithmetic, order of operations, temperature, integers, integer arithmetic, fractions, decimals, percentages, perimeter, area, volume, probability and a final test of progress.
Ideally these books could be copied and given as homework books or sheets. These are then a visible record of work for teachers, parents and students. Each page is easily completed and are designed to lead to success and confidence which then leads to increased motivation and an overall enjoyment of learning.
This is a 15 page sample of the Algebra Project resource.
It contains contents of the Algebra Project as well as sample pages to show you the layout and style.
The sheets have been used at Year 11 but also for advanced Year 9 and 10 classes. All the relevant Algebra needed for Year 10 and 11 exams.
