I am a KS2 teacher, Primary Maths Specialist, mum of two and music lover! Lots of maths resources with a sprinkling of English and music planning and display resources. Thank you for looking at my resources; I hope that they help you in some small way to take back the weekend!

I created these ‘Odd One Out’ activities as part of a maths corridor display. It was designed for use by the whole school (Foundation to Y6) and the aim was the develop reasoning and raise the profile of maths in the school.
This could also be used alongside my Developing Reasoning Powerpoint as an activity for staff to try during the session.
As well as PDF, resource is provided in Word format for easy editing.
Using the context of a dodgy car dealer, children must practise finding fractions of quantities to make sure that they get the best deal.
Originally I used this with Year 4, but I think it could also work with Year 5 and less able Year 6 pupils.
Resource is provided in PDF and editable Word format.
I am passionate about developing pupils ability to reason mathematically and - as the current National Curriculum states - make rich connections across mathematical ideas.
The bundle features:
PowerPoint that can be used for staff CPD to encourage them to create opportunities to develop reasoning in their maths lessons.
PowerPoint of ‘Always, sometime, never?’ investigations. Where children have to reason and justify their decisions with evidence.
PowerPoint of ready-to-go reasoning activities. These are all open-ended activities that have a low entry and high ceiling - suitable for across KS2, but especially useful in Years 5 & 6.
A ready-to-go quick reasoning activity to use on a maths display or in the staffroom.
There are hours worth of activities here that prioritise reasoning but will touch on all areas of the mathematics curriculum.
