Mr C's Keep It Simple Resources

Average Rating3.50
(based on 2 reviews)

One of the hardest elements of teaching can be finding good quality resources that don't overcomplicate what you are teaching. I am all about breaking down resources into small steps so children understand whilst also appreciating teachers don't need too much or overcomplicated material to deliver their lessons. A range of tried and tested English, maths and wider curriculum resources focused on Years 4, 5 and 6. High quality resources from an experienced primary teacher.

Multiples of 10, 100 and 1000 for Rounding

(0)
This resource focuses on children identifying different multiples of 10, 100 and 1000. It has been a very effective resource in the Years 4, 5 and 6 classrooms in children being able to round to the nearest 10, 100 and 1000. The worksheet follows on from the smart notebook and ensures children are confident at identifying multiples and which multiples their number sits between. It also has a fluency sheet and sentence stems to use for the lesson. Even up to year 6 this is very effective when teaching rounding. Kept simple for teachers to access and use.
