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.
