A two-way differentiated activity sheet/worksheet that will develop the children’s understanding of bar graphs, data handling, averages, negative numbers and data handling vocabulary.
Sheet 1 - 8 Questions asking about the average temperature in three cities across four months.
Sheet 2 - Questions asking about the average temperature in three cities across five months. Averages, decimals and extrapolation skills will be tested.
Answers are provided for both sheets. I have provided two different layouts which also add to the challenge. One has a wider line graph set, the other has a narrower set. This will test children’s adaptability to varying presentations.
Included in this detailed bundle:
Bar charts (including answers)
Line graphs (including answers)
Pie Charts (including answers)
Tally Charts
A massive time saver! Please see individual files for details.
This activity will enable children to have a deeper understanding of percentages off amounts or quantities - a key skill in life.
Included is:
- A pdf version of the questions and answers
- A .doc version of the questions and answers so that you can edit the questions to meet your class' individual needs.
These are excel spreadsheets Gap Analysis documents for the 2016 Year Two SATs Papers for Maths .
The sheet totals up the scores automatically and each child’s final score changes colour to reflect their ability.
If their total score for a subject goes green, it means they would have passed the 2016 SATs with that score. If it goes Green with a yellow font, it means that child would have achieved a ‘More Able’ score for that tested subject.
I have also included an instructions and document page, linking to a freely available copy of each test, mark scheme and instructions. Additionally, I have included a link to the conversion tables from RAW Score to Scaled Score.
All a teacher has to do is enter their children’s names and enter the 0’s, 1’s, 2’s or 3’s for each question, which also change colour too for a visual reference. I recommend that a teacher should enter ‘N’ if a child did not attempt that question. This gives an idea of who is not even attempting certain questions, not just whether they got the question wrong.
The sheets are set up for 32 pupils but more can be added/deleted and instructions are on the first page/sheet. Some cells are locked/protected in this document but the parts that you need to insert yourself are editable. This is so that the formulas/algorithms do not break and render the spreadsheet’s functionalities as broken.
I take requests for Gap Analysis Grids. Please leave feedback if you like this resource as I am planning to produce more for each SATs paper going forward, as well as CGP Practice Papers.
