This unit is made up of a number of mini activities. After finding the 12 pentominoes pupils use the shapes in the following activities: •Find the symmetry and rotational symmetry of the shapes •Investigate which pentominoes will tessellate without being rotated, then which will tessellate when rotated •Fit the shapes into varying sizes of rectangles The unit contains pentomino shapes to download and print out.

This unit is made up of three mini interactive activities focusing on the properties of 3D shapes. The first activity is based on Euler’s theory. The pupils need to find a rule that links the faces, edges and vertices together. The interactive activity allows them to manipulate the shapes on screen to count the faces, edges and vertices. The second activity has them using their knowledge of the properties of 3D shapes to form a polyhedral chain. The third activity allows the pupils to investigate which edges will meet when a net folds to form a 3D shape.

This is a simple open ended shape and space investigation focussing on the formula for the perimeter of a shape. This is an ideal unit to introduce younger KS2 children to maths investigation skills as the patterns are simple to spot. The unit can be used to assess AT1 or as a KS2/3 Transition project

These activities introduce pupils to a fully open ended maths investigation focusing on number patterns. There are detailed teacher notes aimed at non-maths specialist for support in the teaching of this topic. The unit is aimed at upper KS2 – KS3. It can be used as a transition project or as assessment of AT1. 'Press F11 key for full screen&'

These activities introduce pupils to a fully open ended maths investigation based on the famous Towers of Hanoi problem, focussing on number patterns. There are detailed teacher notes aimed at the non-maths specialist for support in the teaching of this topic. The unit is aimed at upper KS2 – KS3. It can be used as a transition project or as assessment of AT1

These activities introduce pupils to a fully open ended maths investigation focussing on triangular number patterns. There are detailed teacher notes aimed at the non-maths specialist for support in the teaching of this topic. The unit is aimed at upper KS2 – KS3. It can be used as a transition project or as assessment of AT1.

The presentation is designed to be used primarily with upper key stage 2 children but may be adapted as appropriate. It is intended that the package be used over a series of lessons, with a number of mathematical problems having to be solved at strategic points. All of the activities have a whole class teacher led input with some lessons then leading on to additional activities for the children.

The activities cover every area of the maths curriculum and are graded according to difficulty. Each activity can be used front of class or independently by pupils at a computer. A record page is available with each activity allowing for a maths journal to be built up across the resource.

Investigate the mode, maximum value, minimum value and range of the data presented.

Sorting and grouping objects with Carroll diagrams.

transition project allows pupils to handle data in a real life context. Year 5 collects discrete data, finds the mode and range and displays the results on an interactive bar graph. Year 6 collects discrete data, finds the mode, median, mean and range and displays their results on an interactive pictogram.

Olympic themed KS2 resources in Excel and Powerpoint to develop Maths skills by way of mental starters and group work. Areas covered include symmetry, co-ordinates, angles and numbers to 2 decimal places. All resources can be adapted by a school to create additional activities.

A selection of interactive spreadsheets to assist pupils with basic number concepts. Activities include counting on, counting back and high/low exercises.

A resource that covers nearly all aspects of mathematics - numbers, symmetry etc.

A series of PowerPoint games covering the key objectives from the 4 Programmes of Study. Each game could be used for assessment at the end of a unit

A wealth of activities such as multiplication, fractions, shapes etc

4 Excel workbooks covering Area, Linear Equations, Percentages and Sequences.
