White Rose Maths - Year 4 - Spring Block 1 - Factor Pairs (Varied Fluency and Problem Solving Practice)

A set of varied fluency and a set of problem solving and reasoning worksheets to use alongside the White Rose Maths scheme. Both sets of questions have been differentiated 3 ways, each with an individual sheet of questions for that level. Answers are also included.

These sets of worksheets are for Year 4, Spring Block 1 (Multiplication and Division), focusing on the third small step of factor pairs. Details of how they have been differentiated can be found below:
• 1 Star sheet (Working Towards Expected Level): Be able to use calculate and find factor pairs for numbers 1 to 10.
• 2 Star sheet (Expected Level): Be able to calculate and find factor pairs for numbers up to 30.
• 3 Star sheet (Working at greater depth): Be able calculate and find factor pairs for numbers up to 50.

The varied fluency worksheets contain a total of 8 questions, some broken down into parts (a, b, c etc.) with 2 examples of each question type. This provides children with the varied fluency that White Rose aim for. These questions can be used as a quick starter and cut up so that only the first 4 questions are used, or given as more of a main activity with all 8 questions. They could also be used for partner work, depending on the ability of the children.

The problem solving and reasoning worksheets contain a total of 6 questions. These questions could be used as a whole, or cut up into strips of 3 questions for a shorter task. They could also be used for partner work, depending on the ability of the children.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Likewise, I am still developing these resources, so any helpful comments would also be appreciated.
