In this pack, you will find 2 versions of each worksheet to suit your calculation policy (counting forwards and counting backwards on a number line).
4 differentiated worksheets:
A. Subtract a one digit number from a two digit number.
B. Subtract a one digit number from a two or three digit number.
C. Subtract a two digit number from a two or three digit number.
D. Subtract a three digit number from a three or four digit number.
Three differentiated multiplication grids:
Bronze - one number for each column and each row to allow for two numbers to be required to add.
Silver - the rows remain at only one number but the columns are one or two more numbers to add. Therefore, children will be required to add 2-3 numbers together.
Gold - the rows are one or two numbers and the columns one to three numbers. Therefore, children will be required to add 2-5 numbers together.
This pack contains one worksheet of each level.

A pack of quick, self-initiated activities for children to practise multiplying and dividing numbers by 10, 100 and 1000.
Work includes card games and dice-generated activities.
A blank template from 10 million to thousandths allows children to understand the place value of a number and to multiply or divide it by 10, 100 and 1000 easily.
A paired game perfect for interventions or as a morning starter.
Children take turns to roll the two dice and multiply the numbers together. They can then place one of their 10 counters onto the board.
The aim of the game is to place all of your 10 counters before your partner.
A fun and interactive way to learn times tables.
Two versions included - one for two 6 sided dice and the other for two 10 sided dice, for you to choose which one suits your class and your resources.

In this pack, you will find:
- A board game
- A set of instructions (one low colour version for printing)
- 11 sets of times tables cards (2-12 times tables)
Pick a times table for your children to work on, give them the board game and off you go! Travel around the board collecting as many Easter eggs as you can. To win an Easter egg, just land on an Easter egg space and answer the times table question correctly. Keep going until either a player has collected a certain number of Easter eggs or until the time runs out.
You might choose to give children just one set of times table cards to focus on, or give them a range of times tables cards to make the game even more challenging!
Perfect to use as a morning starter, an end of lesson extension, a golden time activity or an intervention to practise times tables.
I hope your children enjoy this Easter treat!
A fun and interactive way to practise times tables.

This pack includes 143 cards of times table questions including from 0-12 times each times table. All times tables from 2 to 12 are included in this bundle. Each flash card has the question on one side and the answer on the other.
You will find a page of ideas for different games for using the flash cards included.
When printing, select "print two sided" and "flip on long edge" to assure answers line up with questions when cut out. Also please make sure you have the correct paper size selected.
This is a nice activity to introduce the idea of ratio, by using sequences. Suitable for KS2.
I found it useful to use pieces of card (e.g. 1 yellow for every 2 blue) to visually demonstrate beforehand (using volunteers - each holding the correct ratio) and show how to record this into a table on the whiteboard as you go, before using this resource as the main activity.
I also allowed children to use counters at their table to aid them whilst completing the worksheet, as this was very beneficial to some learners.
A consolidating activity for KS3.
Two worksheets to choose from. Edit your chosen worksheet to input the first names of the children in your class.
The children can then work out the fraction and ratio of their names that fall into certain criteria.
Worksheet 1: Relies just on the first names of the children in the class, with no other knowledge required (e.g. number of vowels in the name)
Worksheet 2: Also requires research or prior knowledge of the others in the class before successfully completing the worksheet.
This worksheet can help children to discover the link between fractions and ratio.
I created this as a four week homework programme for my Year 6s to practise their calculation methods whilst encouraging parental involvement.
After a parent workshop to introduce the methods my school uses to teach the main calculation methods (not included), each child took home a game board (included) and one set of calculation cards each week (included) as their maths homework for 4 weeks:
Week 1: Addition
Week 2: Subtraction
Week 3: Multiplication
Week 4: Division
I asked the children to record who they had played the game against at home and encouraged them to play for 10 minutes a day to practise their written methods. I have seen huge improvements in my Year 6 class's written calculation skills as a consequence and many parents have commented how it has helped them to understand the calculation methods too.
I designed this as a fun game to practise the written methods of calculation. Although I chose the option of encouraging the link between home and school and asking the parents to join in too, alternatively you might decide that the game is best in your school to be played in the classroom as a morning starter or within intervention sessions.
A set of instructions is included.
Please note, fraction questions are not included in this game, as I wanted it to focus purely on numerical written methods.
I am currently working on differentiated packs of cards so that this game can also be given to younger year groups.
A lot of time and love has gone into this project, and I hope you and your class enjoy it. I'd appreciate any feedback.
A set of worksheets to deliver the objective 'to translate a 2D shape on a grid' differentiated to cover Years 4, 5 and 6.
A paired game is also included.
The resource is given as a Word document to enable easy editing so that you can adapt the activities for your own class as appropriate. A pdf version is also included.
A game that can be played in pairs, threes or independently. Please note that this game focuses on times tables facts from 2 to 10 to ensure children are confident in these tables before progressing to the 11s and 12s, which will need to be taught subsequently.
Children need a 'Table Splat' mat and counters (different coloured counters for each child). Children take turns to turn over a card, revealing a times tables question. The child who is the first to place their counter on the correct answer (whilst shouting 'SPLAT!') can leave their counter on the board. The winner is the player with the most counters on the board once all of the times table cards have been used.
Differentiate by choosing the multiplication cards relevant for that child, depending on which times table they are currently working on.
*Update: 6s and 9s have been underlined, to avoid confusion.*

A fully resourced lesson on finding the missing digit within addition and subtraction questions. This allows children to practise inverse operations and apply written methods in a fun and interactive way.
The lesson is designed as a code breaking lesson, where children must solve the missing digit problems in order to save a class prized possession. A lesson plan, 8 differentiated worksheets, a letter from the villains for the starter and an answer sheet is included.
The questions are differentiated and cover:
- 2 digit by 2 digit addition
- 2 digit by 2 digit subtraction
- 3 digit by 3 digit addition
- 3 digit by 3 digit subtraction
- 4 digit by 4 digit addition
- 4 digit by 4 digit subtraction
- Decimal addition
- Decimal subtraction
This gives you the flexibility to choose the appropriate level for your class, or differentiate for different groups within your class by assigning each group a different villain's lock to break.
A twist on the classic family game of 'Guess Who' based on the new 2014 curriculum.
My Year 3 class really enjoyed this game as a method to revise maths vocabulary and my Year 6 class loved it last year too.
Differentiated version of the game are designed for Years 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Also suitable for KS3.
This is a carefully thought-out game to be played in pairs to practise maths vocabulary such as greater than, less than, multiple, odd, even, factor, square, cube, etc (age-appropriate guidelines included within pack). Instructions and a list of the covered objectives for the 2014 curriculum are included.
Laminate for a game that can be reused again and again.

A fully resourced lesson plan for children to apply their skills in calculating the area and perimeter in a real life situation.
Children are presented with a floor plan of carefully proportioned rooms. Within the pack, you will find three differentiated tables for different abilities of children to complete. Each table includes a short list of rooms which are relevant to that ability group. Children calculate the area of carpet and the perimeter of skirting board their rooms require.
Low ability - rectangular rooms
Average ability - rectilinear rooms
High ability - includes triangular areas and 'holes' in the shape
This lesson was originally designed for a Year 5/6 class.
