Head Start Maths - IF THEN Multiplying Up to 12

(0)
This resource is a series of weekly tests on Multiplying up to 12. E.g. If 5 x 6 = 30 … Then 5 x 60 = 300 Description of Activity: Cut out, fold, and glue the weekly test into their book so that each IF… THEN… question can be covered and revealed. Set an appropriate timer. Get students to complete all the IF questions first. Set another, shorter timer. Gets students to complete all the THEN questions. Mark using the provided answers. Students record their mark for each IF question and each THEN question on the marksheet by shading correct answers, or by using two colours. Differentiation: Provide students with a multiplication grid. This will help them complete at most half of the questions and then use their knowledge on multiplying and dividing by 10 to determine the other answers. Set shorter time limits for high ability students (or vice versa for students that need more time) Hints and Tips: A suitable time limit for this resource would be 5-10 minutes. Students can mark their own / their neighbour’s answers.
