Perfect for practice of arithmetic with money and decimals in Key Stages 1 and 2, this resource includes a menu for ‘cafe maths’ in three difficulty levels: a beginner menu where all prices are in multiples of 50p, an intermediate menu with prices in multiples of 25p and an advanced menu with prices in multiples of 5p. All prices are written in pounds and pence.
There are three sets of cut-out question cards of varying difficulties ranging from finding the price of an individual order, through to calculating cost and the expected change from an order, and working out what can be purchased for a set amount of money.
There is also a sheet of four large orders for pupils to calculate the total cost.
The menus and questions can be mixed and matched, so easier questions can be used with trickier numbers or vice versa to increase differentiation.
The menus and question cards are illustrated with pictures of the menu items to allow easier use for those with reading difficulties.
12 printable Mathematician of the month posters. Each poster is on two sides of A3 and features pictures, information, trivia and questions on a mathematician who was born in that month.
From people renowned for their maths such as Isaac Newton and Evariste Galois, through to less well-known mathematicians such as Katherine Johnson and G. H. Hardy and people more famous for other things such as Florence Nightingale, each month highlights some of the mathematics of each person along with further information about their impact on the world.
Perfect to put up as a changeable display each month and great for showing pupils that there is more to maths than just arithmetic and quadratic equations.
The posters come as PDF files with two A3 sheets for each mathematician. Each month of the year is included (maybe August could be put up in September).
