I created these because I had no resources and they turned out to be amazing! They proved so successful with the children and the two other Reception teachers; I continued to produce them for the rest of the year. Worksheets, matching games etc. are included. The next 5 PowerPoints are for sale here https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/5-weeks-mastery-interactive-mathematics-powerpoints-and-resources-reception-weeks-2-6-11965274 I use each presentation at least 3 if not 4 times a week prior to Maths session. The children are chosen to come to the whiteboard for most of the PowerPoint pages e.g. to pop the bubbles whilst counting down from 10, which they love (better listening skills on the carpet). The PowerPoints start from scratch. Unfortunately, the difference between the highest achiever and lowest at Reception can be enormous and my philosophy is ‘no one left behind’. They change pace quickly and certain aspects such as the ‘doubling bunny’ rely on repetition and learning ‘the action’ (children physically perform it) so that they can say the answers before tackling the maths later on in the year. Each lesson begins with: Shape discussion (click the shape to make it dance), Counting upwards (from the number of the week), Counting from 10 to zero (clicking on the images so that they disappear one by one). Different concepts are then added each time. I have created these PowerPoints to satisfy: • Maths mastery, • Little Big Maths, • The Welsh foundation phase curriculum (it also satisfies the English eyfs curriculum), • Individual profiles (Reception), • It introduces the part part whole aspect of Singapore Maths and also the bar method, • It also utilises ideas from the White Rose Maths. Week one is free so that you can see how this works in your class. The rest are in half termly packs. Week 1 PowerPoint is arranged as follows: Page 1 : Cover page – shapes to discuss (triangle, square, rectangle and circle) Page 2 : Counting to 10 (1 to 10) Page 3 : Counting down from 10 to 0 (balloon pop) Page 4 : Reading numbers 0 to 5 Page 5 : Writing numbers in the air (1 to 5) Page 6 : Counting coins 1 to 5 Page 7 : Doubling bunny 1 + 1, 2 + 2 Page 8 : Adding basics (how to make 2) Page 9 : Comparing numbers to 4 objects

I’ve created these 4 worksheets and a poster in response to the new digital competence framework and for the fact that I couldn’t find many resources myself. Internet safety is such a broad spectrum, I have focused on the following in these. Sharing online – scenarios to discuss, Traffic light poster for sharing, Sharing their own ideas for the traffic light system, Strong and weak passwords – tick sheet, Adult supervision – make their own rules. They have been created to use in a year 5 class but are suitable for any KS2 or KS3 year group.

A huge choice of 40 certificates ready to print or easily edited. One document is locked as a PDF, ready to print. The other is editable in PowerPoint so that you can change or personalise the achievement. The background digital papers and borders are available to buy separately to pimp your worksheets / presentations at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/digital-papers-and-frames-11690165.

Numbers posters ready to print and laminate. Each containing the word, coin representation (least number of coins), the number itself, numicon representation and hands/fingers representation.

I’ve created these 6 worksheets in response to the new digital competence framework and for the fact that I couldn’t find many resources myself. Internet safety is such a broad spectrum, I have focused on the following in these. E-mail safety and phishing - true or false, Private and personal information - table distribution Genuine and scam websites - colouring, Computer cookies – missing words, Identity theft – what is it? How to protect yourselves and what to do when you’re a victim, The perils of free software and downloads - comprehension. They have been created to use in a year 4 class but are suitable for any KS2 or KS3 year group.

Ready to print and laminate. There are two sets of dominoes, one with dominoes 0 - 10p and another with dominoes 0 - 20p.

Pimp up your class clock with this display that turns it into a teaching resource. You have a choice of 24 hour clock or minutes.

4 PowerPoints to use alongside the Big Maths clic sessions. I also use them as whiteboard sessions at the beginning of Maths lessons. They get progressively harder from the first to last, breaking the tens barrier twice by the end. There are 4 pages to each PowerPoint which I have been using in year 4, but are suitable for other ages.

Mathematical reasoning has been brought into focus with the poor results of the PISA tests. These 5 investigations focus on re-ordering work with emphasis on a given set of options. They are ultimately suited to year 3 but without prior investigation work, I’ve used these successfully in my year 4 class. I would advise using equipment/resources to spark interest in the task. Each investigation has an extension which is a level above the problem for those children who are capable learners already. This assists classroom management, where high achievers can be disengaged when problems seem obvious to them. There is also vocabulary specific to re-ordering work, to assist the teacher in promoting the language and therefore facilitate progress.

Here is my strategy for teaching 100 number bonds. It is similar to the Big Maths clic session jigsaw addition. There are 4 PowerPoints, getting harder each time. The children love it and find it an easy strategy to follow. I have included my differentiated worksheet too.

4 PowerPoints to use alongside the Big Maths clic sessions. I also use them as whiteboard sessions at the beginning of Maths lessons. They get progressively harder from the first to last, ending up introducing decimals. There are 5 pages to each PowerPoint which are suitable for year 1/2 upwards.

I’ve used these very successfully with year 5 to introduce a practical application to probability. I recommend that you use coins, dice, dominos and playing cards during the lessons but they can be used just as easily without. You may also have a large dice, dominos or playing cards that you can use to introduce the 4 lessons, or to use with lower abilities. The tasks in order of complexity are; • Coin toss investigation, • Dice roll investigation, • Dominos investigation and • Playing cards investigation.

9 colouring sheets for fun differentiated times table practice. Answers are included as are times tables cards for LA. Pupils need to calculate the remainders for each number, follow the key at the foot of the page and colour the boxes accordingly. Pupils guess the picture at the end.

6 enjoyable snap games focusing on two elements at a time e.g. fractions to decimals, starting with easier matches e.g. ½ and 0.5 and increasing in complexity. The first three games are targeted for level 4 (big maths too) and the last three are level 5 questions. The pupils click on two choices, which are then revealed. If they are incorrect, they need to reset the board. If they are correct, they may continue until they match two incorrect tiles. The game needs instruction initially, as with the limits of PowerPoint, it will not say if the matches are correct or not. They can be used as a fun introduction, plenary or independent games. The games will work on an iPad that has PowerPoint. The game can be sent to the iPad as an email attachment or through Dropbox / Google Drive and opened with PowerPoint. There is one larger version with sound and a smaller version without. Both have the same questions.

Fun game / presentation to introduce the language of probability. It uses the terms; Impossible, Very unlikely, Unlikely, Even chance, Likely, Very likely and Certain. There is a brief introduction and these slides can be removed if you wish, including rules of the game. The board has 12 interactive questions where pupils click on their choice before the question is revealed. There are 7 possible answers to each question. Clicking the wrong answer will make the answer shake to indicate that it is wrong. When a correct answer is chosen, it will take you back to the question board. You can keep a record of the scores when the presentation is active by typing them in yourself on the question screen. It is also possible to name the teams in the same way.

10 sets of fact family triangles (tables 2 – 10). 12 fact family worksheets (tables 2 – 12).

My new thing in class is not to introduce work but rather start at the end, with a quiz. Can they remember what they’ve learnt previously? Can they discover the concepts on their own? Let’s guess / infer together? We can get it wrong, but let’s try. (Metacognition) This fractions game isn’t straight forward. The halves are pictured as 3/6, 2/4 etc. so this would be the next step on from simply naming fractions. It’s an introduction to equivalent fractions (1/2 and 1/3). The game is interactive, with the aim of popping all of the bubbles. Press a bubble to choose a question. Press the correct answer on the question slide and you return to the question screen with your bubble popped. Press a wrong answer and it simply shakes. Keep going until you choose the correct one. You can keep a record of the scores when the presentation is active by typing them in yourself on the question screen. It is also possible to name the teams in the same way.
