Differentiated Equivalent Fractions Homework activity - aimed and used with a mixed ability year 5 class.
The sheet covers; writing equivalent fractions using a diagram, identifying the odd one out, filling in the missing numbers,and solving worded problems. It moves through fluency, reasoning and problem solving questions. I designed this for use with one of my Year 5 classes, but could also be used in Year 6.
This activity could also be used as part of a lesson.

You will need physical Base 10 Blocks or similar (e.g. printed bar models) for the children to use alongside this worksheet.
Children are asked to prove and show different number and fraction facts using the physical resources.
Both pages are identical for easy A5 printing. Aimed at and used with Year 5 during their Fractions unit.
This resource is aimed at Year 3 children, who are learning how to multiply using the Grid Multiplication method. This worksheet covers 3x, 4x and 8x. Another sheet covers worded problems for the HA children.
Learning Objective: I can use the grid method to multiply two-digit numbers by 3, 4 and 8.
Includes answers.
This activity asks children to multiply a 2-digit number by a 1-digit number using the grid method, then the part whole model, and then partitioning without a visual support (i.e just showing their working in their book).
I used this with Year 4 to recap the grid method and part whole models before moving onto column multiplication. The worksheet is differentiated 3 ways. Word and pdf files included.
Includes Answer Sheet!
This sheet shows the children the method to use when dividing by sharing. The example shows 6 ÷ 3 using sharing circles.
This is ideal to stick into children’s books, to help with a lesson or to be a part of a learning guide folder. I used these with a mixed age Y2/3 class to help them to remember the method during the lesson.
Here are a few column addition questions aimed at a Year 3/4 class. I used this for an interview lesson so there are only a few questions for each level - ideal for use as a starter or a quick recap session!
The sheets are differentiated, with the Silver and Gold sheets requiring children to complete missing number questions.
Learning Objective: To be able to use the column method of addition.
Full (albeit short) lesson is available here:

A worksheet of word problems for Comparing Fractions.
Both docx and pdf file provided.
Aimed at a Year 5 class but could also be used in Year 6 for revision.
Answers included.
In this 3-way differentiated worksheet, children are completing fluency and reasoning questions for converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers.
Children will;
Use bar models to convert between improper fractions and mixed numbers (and vice versa)
Convert improper fractions to mixed numbers
Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions
Fill in the missing numbers to complete the conversions
Spot and correct mistakes when converting
Answer word problems that involve conversions
3 way differentiated and aimed at Year 5, although this could also be useful in Year 6 for revision.
Word document and pdf (for easy printing A4 and A5) included.
Answers included!
This is a Comparing Fractions activity, aimed at Upper Key Stage 2 children. The activity is differentiated for HA, MA and LA children. Children will use bar modelling to compare fractions, before moving onto using < , > or =. Children will then move onto reasoning questions and missing number problems. I found it beneficial for the LA children to complete a more visual style activity (e.g. one using circles to show the comparisons before moving onto this task).
Children will need to understand how to find the common denominator in order to complete this activity. In addition, HA children will need to be able to order fractions.
Learning Objective:
To be able to compare fractions.
Answers included.
These are an update of one my resources for the Grid Multiplication method. Children are completing fluency and reasoning questions before moving onto worded problems. The worksheets are differentiated and aimed at a Year 3 class.
Learning Objective:
I can use the grid method to multiply.
I have created a follow on resource for this (link below). It looks at using the grid method to multiply by 3, 4 and 8.

Answers are included as a pdf. Worksheets are docx format for easy editing.
These are a differentiated set of Grid Multiplication worksheets. They are aimed at Year 3 class. This could be used as a simple starter, lesson activity or revision task. I used this as during the first lesson of teaching the grid method, so that the children to develop fluency with 3x and 4x.
HA children are stretched by adding over the 100, multiplying by the twenties and at the end some 8x questions.
Learning Objective:
To be able to use the grid method to multiply by 3 and 4.
Answers are included.
This is a Multiplying Fractions (by a whole number) activity, aimed at Upper Key Stage 2 children. The activity is differentiated for HA, MA and LA children. Children will be adding and subtracting fractions (as a recap), before moving onto multiplying fractions by whole numbers (and converting the answer to a mixed number). Children will then move onto similar activities involving, comparing, ordering and converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers (and vice versa). HA children will be completing missing number questions.
Children will need to understand how to find the common denominator, compare fractions, order fractions and convert from improper fractions to mixed numbers (and vice versa), in order to complete this worksheet. This activity does not cover multiplying fractions by fractions, only multiplying a fraction by a whole number.
Learning Objective:
I can multiply fractions by a whole number.

This is a full lesson on investigating area for use within KS2. Perimeter is also recapped at the start of the lesson.
To investigate the area, children are given various shapes (pieces of paper) of varying sizes and they are challenged to work out the area with the only knowledge that area is the inside of the shape. An example on the sheet shows that the 10 (length) multiplied by 5 (width) will give an area of 50cm2, but it is up to the children to work out the correct formula.
Each of the shapes have been measured and drawn onto an A4 piece of paper (also included). The shapes are differentiated and fall in line with the times tables. Some children are told which shapes to measure where as some children are given free choice.
I taught this with a mixed y4/5 class and therefore the worksheets cover both y4 and y5. You could use this activity across KS2.
This resource is aimed at a Year 3 class studying Grid Multiplication. Children are completing fluency and reasoning questions before moving onto worded problems. The worksheets are differentiated 3 ways for HA, MA and LA children.
