This quiz contains eight questions (with answers) which are all word problems involving length and distance. The calculations are mostly addition and subtraction with some basic multiplication towards the end. There are a range of metric units use, mostly km. For each question a one-minute timer is provided which will start when clicked. You could use it as the actual timer for children to do the working or you could have it as a final minute timer which is what I usually do. Play it by ear. After each question when the answer is revealed, we go through the working on the board and create bar models to help explain where necessary. The quiz is fully editable so you can easily change the content. I like to use the names of children from my class to make it more personalised. I also spent time creating a colourful and well-designed template too so you can reuse this quiz format for other topics and subjects also.

This worksheet could be printed out, but was designed to be completed by children online in Google Docs. It’s made up of 10 questions, a bonus and an extension task. The first five questions involve the children shading in the given shape (using the background colour changer in Google Docs) as well as naming the fraction either as a word or in its number form. The second five questions involve naming the fractions based on a given shaded area of the shape. The bonus is a slightly trickier question based on the second half of questions and the extension involves children creating their own table shape, shading the cells and typing up the fraction name. It’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.

This worksheet is for use towards the end of a maths unit where the children start to make their own word problems for others to solve. The worksheet is split into two sections. The first part has a space for children to write their facts and question and another space for drawing a small illustration related to the problem. The second has spaces for using a bar model or equivalent to help determine how to solve the problem and then spaces for the calculation and answer.

This art/maths crossover is designed to be used online as a Google Doc. It could still be printed out though. It’s made up of a 10x10 grid in which children have to create a pattern or picture (with the Google Doc background changer) using six different colours. Once they have created their art, the second job is to identify the fractions of each of the colours they used in making it. It’s a fun way to connect maths and art and let’s the children create pixel type art. Expect a lot of Minecraft related stuff to be handed in! Finally, it’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.

This worksheet could be printed out, but was designed to be completed by children online in Google Docs. It’s made up of 4 questions, a bonus and an extension task. Each question involves a table shape with different numbers of cells shaded different colours. Children have to identify the fraction of each of the colours shaded. It builds in difficulty up to where the children then have to place the fractions in order of size. The bonus question involves ordering fractions with different denominators. It’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.

This worksheet is designed to be used as a Google Doc so children can complete it online, however, it could also be printed and used that way instead. LO’s: I can tell the time before and after a given time. I can tell the differences in time. It’s made up of two parts… Part A involves two clocks (a mixture of digital and analogue). One is the start time and the second is the finish time. Children have to find out the difference in times. An example is given at the start. Part B involves a series of word problems. Children have to find out how much time before or after a given event. The worksheet finishes with a riddle bonus question. It’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.

I designed this worksheet to review the basic methods of bar modeling and used blocks from the Super Mario games to add a little more interest for the children. The worksheet is split into four parts. Each has a question, a bar model and a space for the children to do their working and answer underneath. All the questions are also Mario related and use relatively simple and round numbers. The objective is to encourage children to use bar modeling so they can help visualise what is required in a word problem, ultimately to help them choose the correct operation and solve the problem. Here are the four parts and the required operations for each… a) Part-part whole (addition) b) Comparison (subtraction) c) Equal Parts of a whole (multiplication) d) Equal Parts of a whole (division) It’s worth following up each model with children drawing their own for another example question. Please note that this worksheet is a fully editable document, so you can change any of the questions. And with some basic table editing skills, you can change the bar models by copying and pasting the different blocks where you need them.

This game will help children review and improve their calculation of the timestables for numbers 1-6. Between 2-4 players works fine. Each group will need two dice and each player needs a different colour to shade their result on the grid. Instructions: Choose a different coloured pencil each and select who will start. The first player rolls the dice, multiplies the numbers together and shades the result. Rotate turns clockwise until a player has three in a row! The children really enjoy this game but sometimes get so carried away with blocking a friend that they miss opportunities to setup a win! Great game to get them thinking outside the box, inside the box. *The document is fully editable so you can change numbers or instructions as you please. If you have dice with more sides or number spinners etc. then you can move into higher multiples and change the numbers to suit. *

This worksheet is for children to record their estimates and actual masses of different classroom objects in grams. It comprises a table with three columns - the object name, the estimated ass (g) and the actual mass (g). To help them with their estimation I provide a set of masses for each child or group so that they can compare the objects to known quantities. Once they have estimated several objects they can then find the actual mass using a set of digital scales. The worksheet is fully editable so you can change it as you please. It could be easily adapted for mechanical scales.

This sheet is by the children to estimate and then record the content of various drinks after researching or provided with the data. The build-up for this process leads to those classic displays showing each drink container with the bag of sugar underneath to demonstrate the sheer amount in a drink or the lack of. The project is great because it covers all sorts of maths, health and science curriculum objectives and ultimately (hopefully) makes children reconsider what they drink or at least how much they drink of it. *The document contains two tables on each A4 page for saving paper. It is also fully editable so you can change headings, drink names etc. *

A set of three (fully editable) maths calculation worksheets. Make creating maths calculations easier! Includes light gray lines to show the place values. 8 Simple calculations - Write the calculation in but leave one of the parts blank for the student to complete. Template for 10 maths calculations in the tens. Template for 12 maths calculations in the hundreds and thousands. Extra idea: Project onto the white board to have a set template that is easy to edit on the go.

This is a mass problem which involves determining the masses of various fruit on the pictured scales. Logic, addition and subtraction skills are required to solve the four parts to the challenge. You could use real scales with relative masses to help children grasp the ideas in this. The document is fully editable so you can can change the scale pointers, fruits or questions to create your own new and more challenging problems.

I use this setup to type up different examples of addition and subtraction problems to show on the projector. It is fully editable as well, so could be easily adjusted for multiplication and division. There are spaces for place values up to 1000 as well as spaces for regrouping or carrying numbers on.

This introductory worksheet about 2D shapes, lines and curves, and types of circles, is split into three objectives and tasks. Here they are as presented in the document… LO: I can identify lines and curves in different shapes and patterns. Task: Sort out the Capital letters of the alphabet A-Z into the correct groups. LO: Recall the names of different 2D shapes. Task: Retrieve from your memory only, the names and spellings of as many 2D shapes as you can think of! LO: I can identify the different types (fractions) of a circle. Task: Use Google Image search to find real life examples of objects that are one of the following. Copy and paste them under the correct name. See if you can find three examples of each. One example of a semicircle might be half a slice of pizza. This worksheet is designed to be used online as a Google Doc but could also be printed. I use it in Google Classroom and create a copy for each of the children to work on.

This subtracting fractions worksheet is designed to be used online as a Google Doc, however it could still be printed out and used that way. It’s made up of 17 questions plus a bonus. Each question involves subtracting fractions of the same denominator. The calculations get progressively more difficult and the final few questions involve answers which require a written fraction name instead. It’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.

This adding fractions worksheet is designed to be used online as a Google Doc, however it could still be printed out and used that way. It’s made up of 17 questions plus a bonus. Each question involves adding fractions of the same denominator. The final 6 questions involve either answers that are more than a whole and answers which require a written fraction name instead. It’s great for use in Google Classroom where every child gets their own copy. You can then easily check their individual progress live and then check their results.

Several length word problems aimed at LKS2. Involving mainly addition and subtraction. Small spaces after each question for children to draw models and show their working. The final question involves calculating the perimeter of a basketball court from the given diagram. *The document is fully editable so you can alter the names or questions to suit your class better. *

The Challenge This Code Breaker Challenge is made up of 4 challenge sheets, each containing three sets of questions about multiplication and division. The content is based on the Whiterose topic - Multiplication and Division for Year 3 (Spring Block 1). There is also a final challenge sheet for obtaining the master lock key. The Setup Ideally, the Code Breaker Challenge requires a box which can be locked with four three digit combination locks and one (master) padlock. How to Use Fill the box with treasure, for example some sweets and then setup the combinations on each of the locks and lock the box with them and the master lock. Split the class up into four teams and provide each team with one of the challenge sheets. Start a timer of approximately 30 minutes (depending on the ability and age of your class). Each team works together to solve the challenge and tell the teacher the three digit code. If they get it correct, they may open their lock. If not, then they will need to check their answers. Once all four combination locks have been opened, or even after the first team has finished, provide the master lock challenge. If they complete it correctly and within the time, they can then have the master lock key to open the treasure box. Great Fun! The children absolutely love the Code Breaker Challenge and we repeat it at the end of every major maths unit. They really need to work together and check their work carefully if they are to succeed in opening the box and retrieving the treasure within. The documents is fully editable so you can use it as a template to create your own challenges if you like. You can also use it for other subjects as well, but it definitely lends itself to maths the most. I hope you and your children enjoy it as much as mine do! This challenge is one of many. Please take a look at my shop for other units. Thank you.
