I have worked in both KS2 and KS1 as class teacher and am also English Leader in KS1. For the last 5 years, I have been teaching in Y2, which gave me plenty of ‘SATs experience’. However, I have been trying to ensure that the skills children need to apply in their SATs are linked to everyday life experiences and have applied them as much as I could to our topics, in order to avoid 'teaching to the test'. I really value your feedback on my resources. Happy browsing!

Here are 5 worksheets for finding all possibilities problem solving lessons. I could not categorise this resource on here properly as 'Using and Applying' or 'Problem Solving' are not on the TES system.

Most of these resources are differentiated 2 ways but I found it worked best to do them in partners and discuss as class etc. It's good to do those over a few weeks as some are similar and reinforce learning points such as using a system/logical way of working eg always starting with same colour...

Tower building challenge:
Use 4 differently coloured blocks - in which order can you arrange the blocks? How many ways are there? Notebook File attached.

Ice Cream challenge:
Use 4 different ice cream flavours - in which order can you arrange them on the cone? How many ways are there? (A 3 scoop version available too)

Design a flag challenge:
Use 3 or 4 different colours- in which order can you arrange them on flags? How many ways are there?

Mini beast hunt:
3 different kinds of minibeasts were found, 10 or 20 altogether. What are the different options?

Chinese New Year Race Challenge:
3 (or 4) more animals turn up for the race of the zodiac. They missed it and have their own race. In which order could they finish?
