Need your Year 4 children to practise key Maths and English skills? Need something to help settle your class at the start of the day? Want to save time but still need your class to revise? Let me introduce our Year 4 morning tasks! Covering the UK KS2 Primary Maths and English curriculum, our morning task questions are an excellent way to have your class practise and revise key skills while having a clear routine, helping them to settle quickly in the morning. Every morning is made of two Maths questions, two English questions and a spelling task. Answers are also included so children can self-mark. All of our morning tasks are in a** dyslexia-friendly** font and use coloured background to support different needs. Terms 1 and 2- The first two terms focus on prior learning from the past two academic years to support children in their consolidation. This allows children to continue to recall prior learning in addition to building their confidence and sense of achievement, leading to more independence completing our morning tasks. Terms 3 to 6- The rest of the terms incorporate learning from the current academic year in addition to further consolidation from previous years. Each day there will be two fluency/arithmetic style questions, with space for the adult to show workings out if required. English questions are split into two different types- writing comprehension/grammar and spelling/punctuation. There will be one of each type each day. Spelling- On the first day of each week, children will be required to find 5 words that match a specific spelling rule. We strongly recommend children having access to a dictionary for this. For the subsequent days, children will be completing different tasks based on their 5 found words.

Need a fun (and completely unfair) way to revise some of the Year 6 SATs arithmetic style questions? Then you definitely need to play That’s Not Fair! This games includes 21 questions based on the KS2 SATs Maths paper 1- arithmetic. It also includes answers for each question, along with a practice question to ensure all players understand the rules before beginning. The rules are simple, but incredibly frustrating: Pick one person to be the quiz master- it is best if this is an adult. They are responsible for reading out the questions, checking answers and keeping track of the score. Split into roughly equal sized teams Make sure each player has somewhere to write down their answers. One team goes ‘into play’. It is their turn to answer the question. If they get it right, they get to decide to keep or pass the points, if they get it wrong, the next team has the chance to answer. Sometimes there will be positive points, sometimes they will be negative- the teams won’t know until after they have decided to keep or pass. This game is deliberately unfair- keep this in mind as you play and make sure you are respectful to all players during the game. Good luck, and please remember- it’s not fair!
