A year 2 resource for length.

Today's problems are ones that involve number. There are two problems for KS1 and two for KS2. In KS1 problem children have to use simple multiplication facts to work out the length of a particular rectangle. They then have to find a missing value given a total, perhaps using a bar model. At KS2 children have two problems they have to solve involve number properties. The first one they have to know what factors make up a particular number and in the second problem they have to find a particular number that satisfies particular criteria.

Friday's questions. There are two problems for KS1 and two for KS2. In KS1 problem children solve number problems. Encourage students to use a bar model or other diagram for Q2. At KS2 children have a number problem to solve (bar modelling would be good here) and also a problem involving area and perimeter of a square and rectangle.

The White Rose Maths Hub have created a maths trail to be used at the fabulous Yorkshire Sculpture Park - 200 Year 4 children took part in the trail on June 20th and a great day was had by all. Although designed for Y4 children, children of all ages can benefit from a visit to the park. Maybe even share with parents to use over the Summer holidays? NB - Occasionally some of the Sculptures are changed at the YSP but we will try our best to keep this free trail up to date and accurate. Enjoy! The WRMH Team

A collection of worded problems. Children should have access to concrete objects to explain their calculations.

5 Topics to Revise for Key Stage 2 SATs Since the White Rose Maths Hub began creating questions for Diagnostic Questions just a few months ago, there have been 337,221 answers given by primary school students all over the country. Perhaps more importantly, 116,437 of these answers have been incorrect. So, with SATs on the horizon, we thought it would be a perfect time to reflect on five areas of mathematics that have proved particularly troubling to Key Stage 2 students. The five key areas are: - Area and perimeter - Angles - Equivalent fractions and fractions of an amount - Factors and multiples - Percentages For each of these areas we have provided some supporting resources that you could use with your classes to help overcome these difficulties, together with a mini 5 question quiz you could give your students to see if their misconceptions have been resolved. We really hope you find this useful. Craig and the White Rose Maths Hub team

This resource gets children to start thinking about grouping and equal and unequal groups.

Today's problems are all based around the four rules and some fractions work. There are two problems for KS1 and two for KS2. In KS1 problem children have to work out a possible question that could be asked given the information. They then have to use times tables knowledge to work out the cost of some expensive ribbon. At KS2 children have to solve problems involving offers on chocolates and then work out how much profit is made from selling oranges. Every day in March the White Rose Maths Hub is aiming to put out a question of the day. Not long to go now to benefit from this.

There are two problems for KS1 and two for KS2. In KS1 children have to work out the missing values on a number line and then find the difference. They then have to work out the values of each shape in a square grid. At KS2 children have two problems they have to solve involving weight of objects.

There are two problems for KS1 and three for KS2. In KS1 children have to work out what prizes can be claimed for a certain number of tokens. They then have to use reasoning to work out the value of a particular object. At KS2 children solve problems using fractions and percentages. Q3 requires a little more thought and children may benefit from using a bar model or other diagram to help them solve it.

Every day in the run up to the GCSE exams we are intending to put up two GCSE problems of the day on Twitter. Here are the files you can use in the classroom. For each problem there are some variations that you might want to use instead or in addition. The first problem is suitable for foundation and higher and the second is suitable for higher. The first problem involves reasoning to find the base and height of a triangle and use this to find the area. The additional problems involve fractions and Pythagoras. The second problem involves students finding the perimeter of a sector given its arc length. Alternative versions require students to find the length in exact form and find the area of sector. These problems will give students practice is rearranging formulae. We hope you enjoy using them. Please tweet your student solutions to @WRMathsHUb for a chance to win a prize.

For each problem there are some variations that you might want to use instead or in addition. The first problem is suitable for foundation and higher and the second is suitable for higher. The first problem involves forming and solving an equation based on information given. Subsequent questions then involve substitution and Pythagoras. The second problem involves students equating expressions for areas and then finding the length of the sides. Alternative versions include where the rectangles are put together, We hope you enjoy using them. Please tweet your student solutions to @WRMathsHUb for a chance to win a prize

Every day in the run up to the GCSE exams we are intending to put up two GCSE problems of the day on Twitter. Here are the files you can use in the classroom. For each problem there are some variations that you might want to use instead or in addition. The first problems are suitable for foundation and higher and the second ones are for higher only. The first problems involve find the area of a shaded region and then reasoning with fractions to work out how many cookies are in a jar. The higher problems involve straight line graphs and some algebraic manipulation. Can students see the easy way of answering Q2. We hope you enjoy using them.
