This lesson offers your class practice for the different kinds of addition and subtraction that come up in the arithmatic SATs paper.
e.g. = 897 - 567 (equal on the left side)
567.8 + 34.98 =
10-8.66 =
You can discuss and model the different methods that your class can use to answer these questions (e.g. the number line)
The worksheets are differentiated three ways: LA=*, MA=** and HA= ***.
The answers are at the end of the word document to save time.
This lesson begins with opportunities to discuss as a class how you would add/subtract 10, 100 and 1000 from a number without using the formal written method. It then has differentiated practice questions and the answers for your class to complete on their whiteboards. One penultimate slide can be printed off as a worksheet and has 3 levels (Blue for LA, Orange for MA and red for HA). The last slide is the answers to these questions for you to use or for you to get your class to self mark and save you some time!
While the class are working independently, I always display the third last slide that has the Learning Objective on it and two challenge questions for children to complete if they finish early and need an extra push.
This is a complete lesson on reading and writing numbers to over 10 million; it includes differentiated practice questions which can be done on whiteboards (with answers on a separate slide), a (differentiated) worksheet slide which you can print off or get your class to work from the board and choose their own level. The lesson also includes a slide with the answers to save our valuable teacher time. Why not get your class to self-assess at the end of the lesson?
This is a complete lesson on square and cube numbers; it includes a starter, opportunities to model methods, reason about square numbers, differentiated practice questions, a printable (differentiated) worksheet, challenge question and the answers to save our valuable teacher time. Why not get your class to self-assess at the end of the lesson?
This is a complete lesson on subtracting fractions with denominators that are multiples of the same number; it includes differentiated practice questions, a printable (differentiated) worksheet and the answers to save our valuable teacher time. Why not get your class to self-assess at the end of the lesson? I did two days of adding and subracting fractions with my class -one day on subtracting fractions and another day practising adding them.
This year 6 whole lesson included many differentiated practice questions on subtracting and adding decimal numbers with up to 3dp. It also includes a slide for independent work which is differentiated (3 ways: Lower, middle and higher) that is printable or the children can choose their level off the board. Answers are on the final slide. Get pupils to correct their work in another colour pen!
This is a complete lesson that I gave to my year 6 class on the formal written method of addition with up to 3 decimal places; it includes differentiated practice questions which can be done on whiteboards (with answers on a separate slide), a (differentiated) worksheet slide which you can print off or get your class to work from the board and choose their own level.
The lesson also includes a slide with the answers to save our valuable teacher time. Why not get your class to self-assess at the end of the lesson?
The lesson is differentiated three ways for lower attaining, middle attaining and higher.
An entire lesson on adding and subtracting fractions that I have used to teach my year 6 class. The lesson has mental starter, chances for the teacher to discuss and model the method, differentiated practice slides and a final slide which can be printed off as a worksheet. Finally, I have included challenge questions which can be displayed while the children are working independently and that they can complete when they have finished. I have included the answers on a separate slide which you can use to get your class to mark their own work or just make the teacher’s marking quicker!

This is an entire lesson on comparing fractions that I have used to teach my year 6 class in the Summer term as it is comparing improper fractions alongside proper. It has a mental starter, chances for the teacher to discuss and model the method, differentiated practice slides and a final slide which can be printed off as a worksheet. Finally, I have included a challenge question which can be displayed while the children are working independently and that they can complete when they have finished.

This is an entire lesson on algebra which I did with my year 6 class. The lesson includes lots of differentiated practice questions and a printable differentiated worksheet for independent work at the end. The answers are on the last slide. Challenge question which they can complete after finishing independent work.
This is a lesson that I did with my year 6 class to solidify their understanding of fraction, decimal and percentage equivalents. I taught them how to convert a fraction into a percentage by finding the equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100. (e.g. 3/4 = 75/100=75%) but also told them, in the end, they need to know these off by heart. This lesson also really strengthened their understanding of equivalent fractions.
I started with a starter of putting fractions into their simplest form. Then looking at the different ways we can represent parts of a whole (decimals, fractions and percentages).
There are lots of chances for the teacher to model the method and differentiated practice questions for the class to complete on their whiteboards. (I always freeze the board so that I can see the answers to these and move the children onto the challenge if they get the answer correct).
There is a slide that is a printable worksheet for independent work (differentiated 3 ways) or can be displayed on the board to get the class to choose their own level of confidence). I display a slide with the LO and challenge question usually while the class are working independently.
I have included the answers so you can mark quicker or get the class to mark their own work!
Print off the SATs style question to stick in their books when you’re marking.
I taught this lesson to strengthen my year 6’s confidence in their place value and to help them answer the questions in the SATs arithmetic like 6-4.56 or 7-4.569. We discussed that, by the end of the lessons, some of them might be more confident to answer the question using a number line and some might be more confident to use the formal written method but that they should all be able to have the option.
There are lots of opportunities for modelling and lots of differentiated practice questions (with the answers). At the end, I have included a slide that is a printable worksheet or get your pupils to work from the board to save paper. I always display the LO and Challenge question while they’re working independently so they can complete this when they’ve finished.
The final slide is the answers to save valuable teacher time!
This is an entire 2 lessons on working out the missing angles on a straight line, around a whole turn and lesson 2 is about finding missing angles in triangles with the prior learning. The lesson includes lots of differentiated practice questions and a printable differentiated worksheet for independent work at the end. The answers are on the last slide.
Blue = LA
Orange = MA
Red = HA
This a lesson I used to teach my year 4 class in the autumn term to revise the units, tens, hundreds and thousands place value columns. The practice questions are a mix of word problems and pictorial questions involving counters. The worksheets are differentiated for lower attainting, middle attaining and higher attaining. There is a challenge question to display while your class are completing their independent work fot the pupils who finish early.
This is two lessons I used to teach my year 4 class in the autumn term on reading and writing numbers to the ten thousands. The practice questions (for whiteboards) are differentiated for lower, middle and higher attaining pupils and have answers on the next slide to facilitate marking.
The worksheets (which are on a printable slide) are differentiated for lower attaining, middle attaining and higher attaining. The answers are also on a slide to make marking quicker or for you to display at the end of the lesson so you pupils can mark their own work and save your valuable teacher time.
