I currently work at the top end of Primary school in Year 5/6. I create resources for a range of subjects and am always open to suggestions for resources people require.
I currently work at the top end of Primary school in Year 5/6. I create resources for a range of subjects and am always open to suggestions for resources people require.
Attached are a number of resources to try and help in the build up to SAT's.
This includes 36 fully planned lessons to run from February half term with planning, slides and worksheets attached that operate on a mastery basis to develop children's reasoning and problem solving. These are for children to pick between based on confidence.
The reason for 36 lessons is so that you can also focus on other areas such as angles, graphs and rotation as desired or key target areas within your class. Where lessons are repeated, worksheets are repeated as purely revision. Within the presentation are slides for other lessons as a starting point.
Also included are mini-arithmetic tests and problem solving task cards children can work through and a revision mat of key facts.
Different activity sheets that give children questions that look at their fluency, reasoning or problem solving skills for that area of Maths with the answers included. Example questions from the sample reasoning papers and 2016 reasoning papers are also being included for mini practise.
More topics will continue to be included.

A PowerPoint that can be used a revision lesson for angles, focussing on types of angles as a starter, angles on a straight line and finding missing angles before finishing with angles around a point and opposite angles being the same. Included are a range of practice questions to check understanding as well as challenge questions from WRM and a previous KS2 SATs question.
There are also a range of pink and green bubbles to support and challenge understanding.
A five lesson unit of work based on position and direction for Year 6. Included are all the required PowerPoints that also include arithmetic starters. Each lesson/ double lesson has a worksheet activity that includes the answers as well as challenge activities for those that are confident to deepen their understanding.
Lesson 1 - First quadrant
Lesson 2 and 3 - All 4 quadrants

Lesson 5 - Reflection
A lesson presentation and activity sheet that goes with it for practise questions. The focus is being able to find the whole based on fractions of amounts by using the bar model to support them with an example and six practise questions that link to the sheet.
This is then followed up with a worksheet that requires children to practise being able to find the whole based on fractions of amounts. As well as a number of practise questions there are then also reasoning/ problem solving style questions with the answers also included.
A revision mat made for Year 6 to help them remember key facts and rules. Two pages that can be
printed back to back and laminated so children can regularly refer back to it.
Included on the mat are:
Fraction, decimal and percentage equivalents
Measurement facts
Angle types
Averages
Order of operations
Circles
Perimeter, area and volume
Factors, prime numbers, multiples
Calculating with fractions
Roman Numerals
Angles within
A number of worksheets that check children's fluency with adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominator by getting them to fill in the missing circles to complete the calculation. This includes simple ones as well as adding steps to the calculation process.
A lesson made looking at adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominator. Included is a PowerPoint with L.O and S.C as well as examples to work through. This includes a practice sheet that children can work through for the questions on the board.
Also included are a set of three differentiated worksheets that work on adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominator for Year 4 children.
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.
This has been made for children in either Year 3 or 4.
A range of times table mastery check documents. Each one contains 10 questions that check children's understanding of the a times table through more complex methods than just giving them a times table test. Included are word problems, reasoning questions and showing the relationship between numbers.
Also included are times table builders and an example of how these can be used to then build different answers e.g. 16 x 4 from the 4 x builder.
All of the questions related to fractions from the two previous end of Key Stage Two tests under the new assessment framework and from the original sample test.
These questions have been split into arithmetic paper questions and reasoning papers and are also in a combined example. These can be used for a number of reasons including practise of fraction questions or pre and post teaching assessments for fractions
The Big Book of Fractions includes a range of fraction topics within it over 95 pages including:
What a fraction is
Colouring fractions
Representing fractions
Equivalent fractions including simplifying
Comparing fractions
Finding fractions of amounts including finding original numbers - Using the bar model
Converting between mixed and improper fractions
Adding fractions
Subtracting fractions
Multiplying fractions by whole numbers
Multiplying fractions by fractions
Dividing fractions by whole numbers
Fractions, decimals and percentages equivalence
Glossary of what particular terms mean
Within this there are help sheets, showing how to do different operations with fractions through the maths and also through showing pictorial representations, generally using the bar model.
After the help sheets most topics include practise questions and then questions that challenge children's fluency, reasoning and problem solving abilities.
This can be used for a range of things, whether it be just to print the help sheets to encourage children to be independent or to give children a practise activity or activity that requires them to think more deeply.
10 questions that check children's understanding of the 7 times table through more complex methods than just giving them a 7 times table test. Included are word problems, reasoning questions and showing the relationship between numbers.
Different activity sheets that give children questions that look at their fluency, reasoning or problem solving skills for that area of Maths with the answers included.
More topics will continue to be included.
A bank of questions from previous SATs papers including the sample tests that focus on addition and subtraction. These have all been pulled from the reasoning papers so they can be used to challenge children’s understanding or can be used as a mini-assessment of how children are with addition and subtraction.
