This resource has been used in class to track progress when completing quizzes during the Accelerated Reader programme. The resource creates a ‘board-game’ style ladder vertically upwards on a classroom wall when displayed. It has proved effective in motivating pupils to complete quizzes within their range. When pupils ‘pass’ a quiz they will move their name to the next square. A PDF has been included together with an editable version.

Labels used in class to organise Accelerated Reader books. Colours go from 0.1 - 1.9 (Yellow) through to 6.0+ (Purple). Labels are sized to fit standard classroom cardboard book boxes.

A game to assess one of the fundamental building blocks of primary mathematics: understanding of ‘place value’. Differentiated to meet the needs of a typical Key Stage Two classroom. Game Board One for two players - up to numbers in millions Game Board Two for two players - up to numbers in hundred thousands Game Board Three for two players - up to numbers in tens Comes with custom-made spinners. How to play: Player One will use a paperclip and pencil, placing the pencil at the centre of the spinner with the tip of the pencil inside the end of the paperclip. Player One will flick the paperclip and will be given a designated place value column when the paperclip stops. The process is repeated for spinner two where the player finds the number they should search for in that column, e.g. 6 in thousands column. If a player has the number in the correct column, they will place a counter on the game square. If they do not, Player Two will take their turn.

Enable Key Stage Two pupils to practise mentally dividing a range of two-digit and three-digit numbers by a one-digit number. In the board game, pupils will state the correct answer to progress. Sums are designed to encourage pupils to use already-known facts to solve more difficult problems, such as using 16÷4 to solve 160÷4. The game increases in difficulty as players move around the board, with the final calculation being 360÷9. Play by rolling a dice or number spinner. This resource is perfect as an introductory aid, extension task or plenary in the Key Stage Two classroom. Aimed at Primary 6/Year 5 or Primary 7/Year 6.

Enable Key Stage Two pupils to practise stating antonyms of a range of words. In version one of the board game, pupils will state an antonym to progress. In the ‘extension’ version two of the board game, pupils will either state one antonym or two antonyms to progress. Play by rolling a dice or number spinner. This resource is perfect as an introductory aid, extension task or plenary in the Key Stage Two classroom. Aimed at Primary 6/Year 5 or Primary 7/Year 6.
