This is an introduction to Column addition aimed at Year 3 (UK) or Second grade (US). It starts of with basic examples and moves to explain bridging through ten, hundred and both ten and hundred in a visual, child friendly and easy to understand way. The children will have great fun defeating my mathematics villain, Dr Doom! It has four worksheets which correspond to a code that the children use to defeat each stage of Dr Doom's plan. The PowerPoint has logical break off points meaning it's perfect to complete over multiple sessions. I have tried to provide children with a clear understanding of the methods underpinning column addition which relates directly to the new style mastery curriculum. I hope the children have as much fun with it as my students did! https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/d_roberts1 Happy learning :)

This is a challenging activity where children must use their problem solving and reasoning skills to solve perimeter, area and volume questions. It worked exceptionally well with my Y5 class and the horse racing theme really inspired the children! This activity works best over a whole lesson and I like to put the children into mixed ability groups. Some of the questions are quite challenging (although it doesn’t deviate from the national curriculum in anyway) which makes it ideal for Y5 and 6 children; it could also be used in a lower KS3 setting as a fun way to recap on perimeter, area and volume. This pack includes the activity, a question sheet and a powerpoint which not only gives the correct answers but explains each step visually for the children - this makes it ideal for the children to self-assess and provide on-the-spot feedback to the whole class once the activity has been completed. I’d be grateful if you could review the resources and please see my shop for other resources: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/d_roberts1

This resource contains a PowerPoint which fully explains how to work out differences in time for 24 hour clocks. It uses a scaffolded approach starting from comparing times within the same hour to comparing times differences between hours. It contains a relevant basic skills starter session (missing number problems and using the inverse operation to solve these), two worksheets and a differentiated group activity linked to my mathematical villain, Dr Doom! This worked really well with my class and produced some super work. The children found the final activity particularly fun and the feedback they gave me was extremely positive! It has been differentiated meaning it is suitable for all learners. Please rate my resources. I welcome all feedback! Please check out my shop using the link below.

This resource is a fun and engaging puzzle based chapter where children manage a fictional football team. The mathematical decisions you will have to make are all related to the British Year 5/6 Math curriculum. I really hope you have lots of fun as you embark on the season!

Children must draw a picture to illustrate the division problem. They can then use bus stop divisions to answer each word problem. More resources are available in my shop which can be found by following the link below. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/d_roberts1

Differentiated worksheet focusing on using the bar model to solve different fractions of whole numbers. Other resources are available by following the link to my shop below. Thanks for downloading. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/d_roberts1

A sheet I made for my Y3 class. Please see my shop!

A worksheet to revise Year 3 measure. Please subscribe and check out my shop. Happy learning!

Division word problems, division questions (including units of measurement) and illustrations for higher and middle ability Year 3 children.

A simple worksheet which allows students to translate different shapes on an axis in several directions. This was aimed at my Y5 class but will also be appropriate in other settings. Please leave see other resources at my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/d_roberts1 Thanks for viewing.

An activity where children are given a simple recipe that serves six people. They must upscale the recipe to make different amounts and finally downscale it to make three. This is a way to test and consolidate the children’s knowledge on ratio. Please see my shop for more resources at:

Here are two worksheets (differentiated by complexity) which require children to work with negative numbers. Firstly they must add the missing numbers to the pattern. Then they have some addition and subtractions which require the use of negative numbers. Finally, they apply their knowledge to answer word problems. Enjoy! Please see my shop for more resources! https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/d_roberts1

This is a resource I use with my Y5 children. It encourages them to visualise the word problem by drawing a picture to illustrate the mathematics at hand. It is differentiated into a higher sheet (multi-step problems) and a normal sheet (one-step problems). Please leave a review and see my shop for more resources! Thanks. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/d_roberts1

Four problems which require children to problem solve with percentages, decimals and fractions. This is aimed at Y5/6 children and the sheet can be easily adapted for differentiation if needed. For more resources please see my shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/d_roberts1
