The resources that I am sharing I have used successfully as a Primary Tutor to develop learning, understanding and confidence with individual students. They can also be used for group work. To keep my teaching skills sharp and to continue to develop my understanding of the curriculum, I also work as a Supply Teacher. Before becoming a Tutor I was a Senior Leader in a large Primary school holding the position of Assess Co-ordinator; I have also been a Year Leader and a SENCO.

Quick Maths Assessment

(0)
A short maths assessment focusing on place value, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, multiplication tables, finding 50% and 1 tenth. I have created this to help me quickly assess the understanding and confidence of individual students. There is no time limit and I emphasise that it is ok not to know or understand any of the questions as they are the areas that we will focus the learning on.

AREA activity

This activity not only supports students in understanding area but also gives them an opportunity to practice and recall multiplication facts. (Students may also find the perimeter). The activity can be completed by an individual student although my students enjoy playing it together as a game to see who has the largest area (or perimeter) after 6 throws of the dice. As an extension to the activity, use a blank dice and write larger numbers on it e.g 7, 8 9.
