I like to ask the class a question, give the class a certain amount of time to solve the question and then show me the answer on their mini whiteboards. I have taken the KS2 SATs numeracy question papers for the 2015 test and combined the question and answer booklets into a single presentation. This is a great way of teaching as there is an instant feedback and explanation as to how to solve each problem. This helps to challenge and consolidate the classes learning. This teaching resource could be used for whole class teaching and checking, or at home as a one to one resource with a tutor. These teaching resources make maths less stressful and so the students are more motivated to succeed! I have created resources for levels 3-5 and also separate resources for Level 6 students. All the students should attempt all the papers to both consolidate and strengthen their basic learning and also extend their skills to a higher level.

Here is a list of the different lessons in this Year 3 SpringBoard Pack: Lesson 1a: PLACE VALUE AND ORDERING OF NUMBERS TO 100 Lesson 1b: PLACE VALUE AND ORDERING OF NUMBERS TO 100 Lesson 2a: ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION FACTS Lesson 2b: ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION FACTS Lesson 3a: COUNTING AND ORDERING Lesson 3b: COUNTING AND ORDERING Lesson 4a: DOUBLING AND HALVING NUMBERS Lesson 4b: DOUBLING AND HALVING NUMBERS Lesson 5a: MENTAL CALCULATION STRATEGIES Lesson 5b: MENTAL CALCULATION STRATEGIES Lesson 6a: SUBTRACTION BY COUNTING ON FROM THE SMALLER NUMBER Lesson 6b: SUBTRACTION BY COUNTING ON FROM THE SMALLER NUMBER Lesson 7a: UNDERSTANDING MULTIPLICATION Lesson 7b: UNDERSTANDING MULTIPLICATION Lesson 8a: SELECTING THE APPROPRIATE OPERATION TO SOLVE A PROBLEM Lesson 8b: SELECTING THE APPROPRIATE OPERATION TO SOLVE A PROBLEM Lesson 9a: USING MONEY Lesson 9b: USING MONEY Lesson 10a: READING SCALES Lesson 10b: READING SCALES Do you ever wish there was a simple to use, comprehensive way to boost your Year 3 Numeracy grades? Something with all the teaching and homework included in one place? I discovered that I was now allowed to use original Government teaching documents to make a complete course of PowerPoint lessons which follow the original UK Year 3 Numeracy Booster programme.

Here are the main topics covered in the Year 4 Maths PowerPoint Pack Lesson 1a: PLACE VALUE AND ORDERING Lesson 1b: PLACE VALUE AND ORDERING Lesson 1: Learning Objectives: Read and write whole numbers to at least 1000 Know what each digit represents and partition three-digit numbers into a multiple of 100, a multiple of ten and ones Order whole numbers to at least 1000, and position them on a number line Lesson 2a: ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION FACTS Lesson 2b: ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION FACTS Learning Objectives for lesson 2: Know by heart all addition and subtraction facts for each number to 20 Derive quickly all pairs of multiples of 5 with a total of 100 Lesson 3a: MENTAL CALCULATION STRATEGIES Lesson 3b: MENTAL CALCULATION STRATEGIES Partition into tens and ones, then recombine Lesson 4a: PLACE VALUE Lesson 4b: PLACE VALUE Count on or back in twos and recognise odd/even numbers Count in steps of 3 or 4 Count on or back in tens or hundreds Say the number that is 1, 10, 100 more or less than any given two or three-digit number Lesson 5a: UNDERSTANDING MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION Lesson 5b: UNDERSTANDING MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION Understand division as grouping or sharing.

I have taken the Springboard 4 planning and made simple to use lessons, with everything a teacher needs to teach their lesson. With 20 lessons in the pack, this could be used for booster lessons.

• This pack contains 17 templates for creating your own worksheets, for use in lessons, for testing, or for homework. You can use them with any level – your choice of vocabulary and tenses will determine the level. • This pack also includes a sample set of finished worksheets (with answers) on the topic of “Dentist”. The level is pre-intermediate to intermediate. • You don’t need to create all the worksheets for a given topic; simply choose the ones you need. The worksheets are in four categories: vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and speaking & listening. Of course, you can also adapt the worksheets and include your own activities and categories. • Remember, as the teacher, you should know the answers to the worksheets! By thinking about the answers and researching what you do not know, your teaching skills will improve. • The worksheets practise concepts and skills that are fundamental to the You Are The Course Book method of teaching, for example: discussion words, spelling statements, tense conversion, idioms, word stress, sentence stress, collocations, connected speech, discussion, and so on. • In keeping with the YATCB method, why not encourage your students to make their own activities based on these worksheets – then swap them with one another, or give them to other classes. • You can write on the blank worksheets then photocopy them for your students, or create your own templates modelled on these worksheets

Welcome to the 'Let’s Talk in ESL!' pack. This pack contains a 31 Teaching Activity Teacher Guide using these photo flash cards. These activities are quick and fun to do and will improve both your students' memory and vocabulary skills. ***** Please note - these resources provide visual prompts and support to the students, not direct language instruction ************** This set of cards looks at 57 different settings. The teacher describes something in the top card. The students then use this to model a sentence using the bottom set of pictures. There are lots of things to see and describe in every picture. When the students have completed this task, they can repeat it by working in pairs to discuss each picture. There are lots of different ways you could use this pack. You could laminate them into two cards and get each student to talk about what they had seen in their picture.

I have tried to make learning fun. My powerpoints combine the original question papers with the original marking scheme. This means that after each question, immediately comes the answers. My idea is that a teacher shows the question, lets the class answer it using mini whiteboards. Then the students can explain their different strategies and see what would have gained marks and how to improve their work. This pack contains both Level 3 to Level 5 material and also Level 6 tests. Every child should try every test. This helps to extend and challenge the main group, while consolidating the learning of the more advanced children. Even more effective teaching learning is to pair the advanced and less advanced - the effort of teaching the less able child actually improves the understanding and verbal explanation of maths. This teaching pack could be used in the classroom for whole class teaching, small group teaching or at home with a tutor.

Do your students like a structured day? Are they always asking what is next? It sounds like you need a new EYFS Visual timetable. I use Visual Timetables in all my lessons - it lets the students know what to expect throughout the day. It really helps with classroom management and behaviour management.

Year 6 Students: Lesson 1 - Introduction to Fractions Every lesson includes a PowerPoint to revise the topic and a detailed lesson plan. Why Students Will Love This Lesson: Students will enjoy this lesson as it connects math to real-life scenarios, such as sharing food or measuring ingredients. Understanding fractions is essential for their daily activities, making learning engaging and relevant. Sample Questions: If we share a pizza among 4 friends, what fraction of the pizza does each friend get? What is the numerator in ? Can you convert the improper fraction \ to a mixed number? Benefits to Teachers: Engaging Materials: Each lesson provides structured resources, saving time on preparation. Real-life Applications: Students learn to apply their knowledge of fractions in everyday contexts. Assessment Tools: Quizzes effectively evaluate student understanding. Objective: Students will define fractions, identify the parts (numerator and denominator), and distinguish between proper, improper, and mixed fractions. Assessment: A quiz with 10 questions will assess their understanding of fractions, including definitions and conversions. Key Points: Definition of Fractions: A fraction represents a part of a whole, expressing a ratio. Parts of a Fraction: The numerator indicates the parts we consider; the denominator shows the total parts. Types of Fractions: Proper fractions (numerator < denominator) Improper fractions (numerator ≥ denominator) Mixed numbers (whole number + proper fraction) Equivalent Fractions: Different fractions with the same value. Real-World Examples: Used in time, recipes, and measurements. Opening: Start with the question: “If we share a pizza among 4 friends, what fraction does each get?” Use visuals to illustrate fractions. Guided Practice: Students work in pairs to identify numerators and denominators, classifying fractions as proper, improper, or mixed. Independent Practice: Complete a worksheet with 10 problems, including definitions and conversions, with explanations for answers. Closing: Review key concepts by having students share one new thing they learned about fractions. Extension Activity: Provide extra problems for converting fractions to decimals or percentages.
