Mean, median, mode & range - reminder rhyme

Mean, median, mode & range - reminder rhyme

(25)
A simple poster, that reminds pupils which method to use to find the mean, median, mode and range of a data set. Based on Hey Diddle Diddle, it's illustrated with colour-coded examples as well as a fiddle-playing cat. Could be part of a maths display, an on-screen reminder during a lesson or as a table mat. (I found the original rhyme from another resource on this site, but have adapted it)

Word problems using Division

(59)
When teaching the 'chunking' method of division, I could not find any decent word problems for my class, so I had to make some up. Here they are, with answers, for anyone else in the same situation. Eight questions, getting trickier, ending with two-step problems.

Use these for any subject you like! Couldn't find a simple one so I made my own. 8 to an A4 sheet: space for a picture a title and 4 categories to score. Use for places in Geography, people & places in history, set maths challenges... just print onto card and cut out. Print them blank for your class to make their own for great revision or Starter activities.

Leave one whole and cut up the others to match the fractions on the remaining pages. In Sassoon primary font. Simple colour coding used for emphasis. Notebook: same choc bar pics for IWB. My class love these :-) EDIT - typo fixed in the 40!

Rounding & estimating, using numbers, £/p & m/cm

(0)
Very simple set of cards - nothing fancy - use to generate random questions for starter, practice or plenary. One set has digits 1 to 10, plus the number operations, including the 'almost equal to' sign. The other set has two digit numbers, amounts of money in pounds and pence and distances in metres and centimetres with 1 or 2 decimal places. Choose a number / money value / distance at random for rounding practice. Generate random sums with the digits and operators for estimation practice.
