Children required to colour different amounts on measuring jugs. Of course practical work is better for instilling the notion of capacity, but this can be a good visual representation of varying amounts.

This is a fun and interactive way to help children find the mean/mode of sets of data.

This worksheet is designed for use with upper ks2. I have an extension group but it is adaptable. Images of the latest craze toys to capture their interest. Children cut and stick images into their books and calculate/record the reduced price of each toy, showing their method. Children could also use this as a calculator exercise. Please leave constructive feedback as I am NQT, many thanks!
