The 78 slides in this PowewPoint or Smart Notebook contain SATs-style reasoning questions that the children will encounter in their Y6 tests. Although children could work independently, discussion with a partner would be encouraged so that they can share problem-solving skills. Although aimed directly for those teaching Years 5/6, it is also relevant for any KS2 or Y7 teacher. It is intended that the slides are used over several revision sessions.

If your children like mathematical conundrums like Sudoku or love the beauty of algebra, then they will find arithmagons truly fascinating. The 23 slides in this PowerPoint presentation, which can last several mornings, introduce children to these polygon number puzzles before deepening their understanding by applying algebraic formulas or using more complex shapes. Not only will your children enjoy being challenged with identifying missing numbers but they will also be challenged in trying to find a method for their solution (and in my experience, some will even find their own which work). Although aimed directly for those teaching Years 5/6, it is also relevant for any KS2 or Y7 teacher. I will always appreciate some feedback on the content of the lesson and any improvements that could be made.

The slides in this Smart Notebook contain various questions that often appear in the arithmetic paper. These are best used for half an hour or so on the morning of the test before the children undertake it as a quick recap of methods used, ‘tricks’ that might need to be remembered and various prompts with regards to do’s and don’ts. Although aimed directly for those teaching Years 5/6, it is also relevant for any KS2 or Y7 teacher. It is intended that the slides are used on the morning of the test, prior to the children undertaking it.

Whether you prefer the triangle because it’s the strongest shape or the rounded beauty of the circle, 2-D shapes are truly fascinating. The 49 slides in these two PowerPoints revise our two-dimensional friends: an area of geometry that is often forgotten about in Y5/6 as we often wrongly presume that the children have remembered everything from previous years. However, children enjoy being challenged with knowing more than just the names and basic properties of shapes. There are 49 PowerPoint slides covering 4 lessons: • The Euclidean plane, open and closed shapes, links to 3-d shapes, polygons, regular and irregular shapes, parallel and perpendicular sides, lines of symmetry, sorting shapes using Venn and Carroll diagrams, and identifying shapes using decision trees. Although aimed directly for those teaching Years 5/6, it is also relevant for any KS2 or Y7 teacher. I will always appreciate some feedback on the content of the lesson and any improvements that could be made.
