A sheet with two place value grids on that can be photocopied and sliced up to be used. The place value grid follows the idea of splitting the place values into threes to help show how thousands and millions truly work as well as signposting where commas should go. It also shows decimal points and the following three values after the decimal point, as well as showing their fraction equivalence.
A Powerpoint that looks at the relationship between addition and subtraction and between multiplication and division.
Useful as an introduction or a recap for children, exploring the links between operations as well as introducing algebraic links for children and the way in which the equals sign can move about fluidly. Includes questions for children to try and solve, with some being more complex than others.

A range of IWB slides that offer ideas for what to teach and different questions for teaching Year 6 ratio. These are to act as a starting point to be added to/ edited for regular lessons though they can be readily used as well.
A set of three differentiated worksheets that work on calculating the area and perimeter of shapes for Year 6 children. Having used a similar format in my own lessons, these sheets often provide enough challenge for two days lessons, with children taking on the easier work then moving on to harder challenges within the other sheets.
These have all been made with mastery in mind and so follow this pattern.
Worksheet One - Works on practise and fluency (LA)
Worksheet Two - Practise, fluency and reasoning (MA)
Worksheet Three - Practise, fluency, reasoning and problem solving (HA)
Answers are included for each sheet.
A worksheet that focuses on the objective from Year 5 Spring White Rose Maths for Multiplication and Division for multiplying a 2-digit number by a 2-digit number. Included are practise questions as well as problem solving/ reasoning style questions. Answers are also included separately.
Four worksheets that work on multiplying by 10, 100 or 1000 where the answer is whole numbers.
Each worksheet includes 12 questions, each with a place value grid for placing the original number in and a place value grid to then move the digits appropriately. Answers are also included separately.
Worksheets include one x 10, one x 100, one x 1000 and a mixed sheet of all three.
A bundle of worksheets focused on multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000.

Most lessons come in double lessons bar the two triple lessons where there is an introductory lesson followed by a double lesson. Each double lesson includes a double lesson PowerPoint that includes an arithmetic starter for every lesson, key vocabulary, modelling, discussion and practice before moving onto an independent activity and challenge tasks that stretch over the two lessons. Answer sheets are included for all independent activities and challenge tasks.
The single lesson at the start of triple lessons has all the same features but only has a single lesson PowerPoint.
Four lessons that focus on being able to work with perimeter in Year 5 with lessons set out as two double lessons.
The first double lesson focuses on being able to measure shapes and calculate the perimeter of rectangles and squares where a ruler has been provided to measure the shapes.
The second double lesson then follows up by focusing on being able to calculate the perimeter of different shapes, using the information provided or what children already know about the property of shapes.
Each double lesson includes:
A double lesson PowerPoint that includes an arithmetic starter for each lesson, key vocabulary, modelling and discussion points as well as guided practice before moving on to independent activities.
An independent activity that applies what children have learnt during the teaching part of the lesson. An answer sheet is included for the activity and there are challenge activities for children that finish which also include answers. The activity and challenges run over both lessons as it is expected that there may be more time teaching and talking in the first lesson before having more time to practise in the second lesson. However, everything is uploaded in PPT format so can be easily edited to suit.

Five lessons that focus on being able to calculate the area of quadrilaterals and compound shapes.
Included is:
A fully-resourced double lesson that focuses on the objective of finding the area of quadrilaterals, with a particular focus on squares and rectangles.
Included in the resource is:
A double lesson PowerPoint that includes an arithmetic starter for each lesson, key vocabulary and areas to model and discuss as well as then having some guided practice for children to work through to check their understanding.
This is then followed up by an independent practice activity and challenge questions for those that finish. These are planned to run over the two lessons with the first lesson potentially taking more teaching time and the second lesson giving more time for practice and challenges. Answer sheets are included for both.
All attachments are uploaded as PowerPoints so they can be easily adapted, especially in adapting to any misconceptions or needs that arise from the first lesson.
Three fully-resourced lessons focusing on being able to calculate the area of compound shapes.
The lessons are split so that they act as an introductory lesson before having a double lesson that provides the opportunity to develop and become confident in finding the area of compound shapes.
The first lesson includes a lesson PowerPoint that includes an arithmetic starter, key vocabulary, modelling and discussion as well as guided practice. This is followed up with an independent activity and challenge tasks to apply what has been learnt, with answer sheets included with these.
The double lesson includes a double lesson PowerPoint that includes an arithmetic starter for each lesson, key vocabulary, modelling and discussion as well as guided practice. This is followed up with an independent activity and challenge tasks to apply what has been learnt (that stretch over both lessons with more time teaching first lesson and more time practising in the second lesson), with answer sheets included with these.
Four fully resourced lessons that focuses on being able to convert between various measurements from mm to cm up to g and kg. The lesson presentations focus on a range of questions and building understanding as well as guided practise questions for children to practise what they are learning. This is followed by one of two sheets based on confidence (answers included) before a final challenge question on the lesson presentation.

Within the lessons, small steps are applied when appropriate such as doing a 4-digit x 1-digit before then doing the same 4-digit number by a 2-digit number that includes the previous 1-digit number.
Most lessons come in double lessons. bar lesson one. Each double lesson includes a double lesson PowerPoint that includes an arithmetic starter for every lesson, key vocabulary, modelling, discussion and practice before moving onto an independent activity and challenge tasks that stretch over the two lessons. Answer sheets are included for all independent activities and challenge tasks.
The single lesson at the start has all the same features but only has a single lesson PowerPoint.
Also included within each lesson pack is a multiplication square should it be needed for support.
A presentation with 200 different questions that can be used when working on tens and ones.
These can be used either as questions to do as a class or to print and get children to work through at different points.
Within the presentation, there are representations using Base 10, numerical representations and sentences. This includes saying how many tens and ones there are before saying what the number is, looking at the whole number to say how many tens and ones there are and saying what a missing value is, both with tens and ones and other partitions e.g. 92 = 50 and 42.
Twenty worksheets that focus on being able to work with bar charts in different ways.
Included are ten worksheets that require children to practise drawing charts when given a set of data. These include different examples of data and different scales, with some data matching the scale and some requiring children to consider drawing data inbetween scales. Alongside this, they are required to label the axis and give the graph a title.
There are then ten worksheets that require children to answer questions based on data presented to them. This includes a range of questions and again includes different intervals, with data being set on the intervals and inbetween the intervals where they need to consider half way points.
Answer sheets are also included for all activities.
The activities can be used in a range of ways, including stand alone practice, intervention, used as activities during lessons on data handling or for home learning/ homework.
