3 sheets of 2D and 3D geometry shapes.
The first two sheets are the same activity of describing shapes, but the shapes are different on each sheet. The third sheet asks the student to draw, in the correct columns the 2D and 3D shapes they have identified.
Can be done individually, but originally designed to be completed collaboratively in small groups.
A set of 4 activities designed for students to practice reading scales for liquid measurements. Students can also practice recording the readings given. One of the activities is a cut-and-paste example, where students relish the opportunity to have a kinesthetic element to their work.
These activities can be used to provide diagnostic information on students’ prior knowledge of reading volume measures, support their learning or as a follow-up set of activities.
Provided; 4 activities and a sheet of cut-outs.
A single worksheet where students cut and match up 4 measurement maths terms (area, length, perimeter and volume) with their definitions.
A nice hands on activity for generating discussion.
A collection of Worksheets working with Shape.
Included areas of learning are; Rotation, Resizing (Enlargement and Scale Factors), recognising and describing 2D and 3D shapes.
A worksheet for students to practice working with the rotation concept.
The idea here is rotating a shape around a point. There are various exercises, graduating in difficulty.
Answer sheet is included.
These worksheets require students to record their knowledge of a range of 3D shapes. It includes asking them to draw the shape, describe the shape, draw from another angle and give an example of the shape outside the classroom. The Upper Elementary worksheet also asks them to draw the cross section.
Can be done individually or in small groups. Suitable as an on-going activity. Best worked at A3 paper size.
This is a bundle collection of all my maths products to date, and I intend to add more over time.
As this is a collection of all my maths products they range across strands and levels. You may only need some of what you find in this bundle, BUT…you get the bonus of having all that is included, some of which you may discover you can use.
Included are worksheets and activities on; place value, fractions (junior primary), measurement (junior/middle primary), volume(junior/middle primary), shape (junior/middle primary), rotation (junior/middle primary) and scale factors (junior/middle primary).
There are a total of 13 worksheets and activities, not including instruction sheets.
This resource is two games to support place value learning.
Both are fun and are great warm-up activities.
Each game involves throwing dice and recording the place value the student gives to the number shown on the dice.
The winner of Game 1 is the student who makes the highest score.
The winner of Game 2 is the student who has their answers in numerical order.

My Times Tables Workbook
An excellent resource to focus students on exclusively MINUTES PAST the hour or exclusively MINUTES TO the next hour.
This resource to allows students to simply concentrate on either just ‘minutes past’ or just ‘minutes to’. Each worksheet here only focusses on one at a time.
This resource is for those students who have mastered telling the time to the hour, half hour, quarter to, quarter past and probably to the nearest 5 minutes.
These worksheets are focussed on telling time to the nearest minute.
Two worksheets, one for each ‘side’ of the clock.
Teacher notes included.
A hands on activity for 1st and 2nd grade students. Students work with the concept of a third and cut and paste representations of a third.
This resource includes;
Teacher instructions, 1 recording sheet, images to cut into fractions, an answer sheet example
Great for follow-up work, consolidation, revision and discussion about simple fractions.
Activity sheets that combine the maths concepts of position and direction within a New Zealand ANZAC unit study (with a focus on World War 1 and World War 2 battles).
Students work on locating New Zealand battle locations in World War 1 and World War 2 using longitude and latitude.
Students will require access to an atlas or (more preferably) an online map app, such as Google Maps.
Students are provided with the recording sheets and information cards that contain information on three WW1 battles and four WW2 battles New Zealand was involved in, the dates of the battles and the countries. Please note - they are not in order on the cards!
Using the information cards and the coordinates on the recording sheets students then work out which battle took place in which country and when.
Includes; recording sheets, information cards, teacher instructions and answer sheets.

This resource provides an introduction to the concept of rotation around a point.
This is a simple worksheet with a choice of two objects to rotate 4 times around a point. Students have the choice as to how they position their object for rotation.
This resource contains a recording sheet, 2 sheets of objects (4 per sheet) and a range of possible answers.
This is a short, engaging, hands-on measurement task that will allow teachers to quickly gauge or assess student understanding of measuring objects with non-standard units.
This is a resource that can also be used as an assessment sheet. It can be used prior to a lesson plan or at the completion.
This activity can be used to support Module 11B and 11C of the New Zealand Junior Assessment of Mathematics test (Jam Test).
This resource includes worksheet, teacher notes and answer sheet.
Four worksheets for students to practice working with the concept of rotating around a point.
The first two involves the idea of rotating a shape a half turn around a point. There are 6 exercises on each of 2 sheets, graduating in difficulty. The second sheet is slightly more challenging than the first.
The third worksheet involves the idea of rotating a shape a quarter turn once clockwise around a point. There are 6 exercises on the sheet, graduating in difficulty.
The fourth involves the idea here is rotating two shapes around a point - one shape does a half turn, the other shape does a quarter turn. There are 6 exercises on the sheet, graduating in difficulty.
Answer sheets are included.

This is a bundle of 4 individual Halloween themed resources. If you liked one of the Halloween themed coding resources and wish to do more, then this may be a better option than purchasing all four separately.
I have made these resources to help begin meet the needs of our 21st Century learners. The skills they will need will involve a capability of working in a digital environment.
These activities focus on coding. However it can equally be seen as a sequencing activity, a problem solving activity or a positional maths activity.
These are introductory activities to using coding. They don’t require the use of a device or access to the internet. Though you may like to show students the actual Scratch Jr app as well.
The success of these tasks is best achieved with plenty of prior discussion and modelling.
This should include;
• Explaining they are trying to give a character a set of instructions, or maybe programming a character to follow a set of instructions.
• Discussing the icons
The yellow block with the flag is to start the instructions
The blue blocks do the action on the block
The orange hand block is to stop
The red block is to tell you the instructions have finished
• Explaining that one block is one action
• That the activity is a cut and paste one
This resource comes with
4 variations of simple coding. Each of the 4 variations has two activity worksheets (two levels of difficulty), for a total of 8 worksheets.
Each variation has an answer sheet.
Variation 1: code involving a single turn.
Variation 2: code involving a single turn, with an extra block (which will not be needed) to challenge students’ thinking.
Variation 3: code involving two turns
Variation 4: code involving two turns, with an extra block (which will not be needed) to challenge students’ thinking.
The challenges with this activity are
working with an anticlockwise and clockwise turns
deciding which block is superfluous and not needed to complete the code
This is a great way to get all my Halloween themed coding activities to date in one purchase!
