This is a differentiated worksheet to help children master opposite angles. Answers are included.
Children are challenged to:
- name the type of angle a ‘missing angle’ is.
- calculate its size in degrees
- measure it accurately using a protractor.
All angles are correctly sized.
There are two sheets, an Expected Standard sheet and a more challenging Greater Depth sheet (2016+ Curriculum). On each sheet there are nine missing angles, meaning that children have 27 things to do in order to complete one activity sheet.
Please rate and/or comment. All feedback is valuable.
A two-way differentiated activity sheet/worksheet that will develop the children’s understanding of bar graphs, data handling, averages, negative numbers and data handling vocabulary.
Sheet 1 - 8 Questions asking about the average temperature in three cities across four months.
Sheet 2 - Questions asking about the average temperature in three cities across five months. Averages, decimals and extrapolation skills will be tested.
Answers are provided for both sheets. I have provided two different layouts which also add to the challenge. One has a wider line graph set, the other has a narrower set. This will test children’s adaptability to varying presentations.

11 HD photographs of a sheep heart dissection including a look at a professional dissection kit.
Excellent for showing children the inside of a heart and great for stimulating debate.
Two information texts about the same subject (volcanoes). One is significantly better written than the other. A good activity to get children to compare and contrast written text, particularly good for getting children to spot grammar features and high-level punctuation.
The details are not glaringly obvious but word choice is markedly improved in the better version, as well as more detail having been added.
A VCOP'd poster version has been included to display the features in your class.
Also excellent for getting children to summarize a text.

Resource includes:
Number Bonds to 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100.
Fully interactive.
Greater Depth challenges for children who are fast graspers.
2, 5 and 10 times tables spinners included.
This is an activity that will challenge all children in a class. Suitable for Years 5-8 (depending on ability).
To complete this activity children will need to:
- recall the number of sides for polygons down to a dodecagon
- use algebra to calculate the sum of the interior angles for each shape
- find the size of each interior angle using logic (division)
- calculate the size of each exterior angle (180 - interior angle = exterior angle)
This will get the room buzzing and you'll see your children using many skills during the same lesson.
I have colour banded the activity four ways:
-Blue (easiest)
-White (Middle)
- Green (challenging)
- Purple (Mastery)
