A beautiful Manga style explainer worksheet for fractions. A Manga girl explains the different fractions and how we do the sum to find the fraction of a number, with one example. Students then have a try with five questions She introduces more fractions with examples and students take a try. She introduces bigger fractions and explains how to deal with the trickier sums and students have a try. At the end there is a simple 'stretch' question, with different elements for students to think about.

A presentation to introduce the process of pulling apart a fractions word question. Starts with a story involving a child sharing her chocolate and leads through the process of searching for important information and solving the sum, then using the answer for the previous sum to answer the next question with the information in the PPT. There is then a question which allows students to try for themselves, with a simpler feedback section. Finally, there is a worksheet. The worksheet contains the two questions from the PPT as well as three more questions (with multiple sub-questions).

A fantastic card game for Halloween. Just print out one set of cards for every set of 6-8 students. Suitable for US/UK Players work in a team of 2 and play in a group of 8. Cards are laid out in 2 piles - Action cards and Ghoul cards. On your team's turn, take one card from each pack and follow the instructions [eg...Sculpt a witch with a blindfold, Act a vampire with a puppet (one player is the puppet master, the other the puppet)] The other teams guess. The first team to guess your ghoul correctly gets a point and you get a point. The team with the most points when the game ends is the winner. 2 versions depending on the size of cards you want. Either print out version 1 and cut the cards out, or use the full page version and adjust your printer settings to make half page cards etc.

Communicative or individual activity including 3 different sheets of Alien code, the answer key, and a key to help students with the decoding. 3 sets of Alien code with a key. Leave the code or messages in a 'space ship' for students to find and let them find the other part elsewhere or simply explain that you 'found these strange messages at home'. Students either communicate to decode the messages or work individually, depending what you want them to do the activity for. Sheet 1 are motivational 'fortune cookie' style messages. Sheet 2 include a treasure hunt based on 5 clues. Sufficiently generic to work in any school. Sheet 3 is a letter from the aliens requesting help. Students decode the message and then the teacher produces a list of whatever the students need to do in order to help them (for example, complete their maths homework, or find the answer to a difficult question.). The children (grades 2-8) I've done this activity with have loved it!

A PPT which breaks down word problems to create simple algebraic equations before solving them. Funny stories make the questions, so I'd suggest you update the PPT with your students' names.
