6-9 lessons in 6 parts.
Designed to increase students understanding through step by step activities.
This Smartboard version allows students to move objects around to help solve problems.
Success Criteria:
Competent:
I can group concrete objects into twos, fives, and tens, and say how many groups of fives there are.
Accomplished:
I can find the total by counting in twos, fives, and tens.
Exceptional:
I can use my reasoning skills to solve problems involving multiples of twos, fives, and tens.
The first parts of each resource uses everyday objects, Numicon, money, pentagons, hands. feet, coins, rulers and scales to get students to count and think in twos, fives, and tens.
Part 2 recaps and reinforces previous learning- builds upon learning and then challenges students with mastery questions using 2p, 5p and 10p coins to buy small items. Also compares amounts of 5p coins to 2p and 10p coins.
Includes self-assessment slides for students and a “Whizz Bang” game as a plenary.

Starter activity - “How many reds?” an experiment in predicting. Object being that students understand that more trials, means the relative frequency is closer to theoretical probability

2 lessons:
Lesson objectives:
To solve equations with unknowns on both sides, including equations with brackets.
Includes; teachers notes on how to use the interactive elements, step by step guide, worked examples and practice questions.
The big idea is to rewrite both sides of the equation to eliminate like terms. Hence the phrase “Same Value, Looks Different”. It uses money to show that you can can have the same value, but in different ways. Hence, you can rewrite any equation in any way as long as you do not change the value.
This version 2 is designed to allow both teachers and students to solve the example equations by writing each step on an interactive whiteboard. (Version 1 has each step written done to be uncovered as the example goes on).
