I currently work at the top end of Primary school in Year 5/6. I create resources for a range of subjects and am always open to suggestions for resources people require.

A fully resourced fractions lesson for being able to add two or more fractions together with the same denominator (including answers less and greater than 1) in Year 4 based on the objective from White Rose Maths.
Included in the resource is:
A lesson PowerPoint with starter, vocabulary, modelling (with teacher notes) and guided practice
Lesson plan
Worksheet with answer sheet
Scaffolded worksheet with answer sheet
Modified worksheet for those who need additional changes to access the learning with answers
Challenge tasks
Support strips that can be stuck in books
Everything is included that could be needed to run the lesson successfully, with each resource carefully considered in ensuring accessibility for all as well as ensuring there are plenty of opportunities for challenge to provide depth of understanding.
A double lesson that focuses on being able to find multiples including common multiples. Included is a PowerPoint for the two lessons that includes an arithmetic starter as well as an activity with answers and three challenge activities for those that are confident.
A lesson or two lessons worth of slides (depending how much time you spend discussing and exploring using models and manipulatives) that focuses on the objective from Year 4 Spring WRM for what a fraction is. Included are different representations and examples and non-examples to discuss as well as some of the questions from the WRM document.
A lesson that focuses on being able to convert between cm and m. Included is the lesson presentation that includes starter questions as well as support and challenge bubbles. There is also a worksheet that includes answers and a place value grid to support learning.
A fully resourced multiplication and division lesson for being able to use different factor pairs to be able to complete multiplication questions in Year 4 based on the objective from White Rose Maths.
Included in the resource is:
A lesson PowerPoint with starter, vocabulary, modelling (with teacher notes) and guided practice
Lesson plan
Worksheet with answer sheet
Scaffolded worksheet with answer sheet
Modified worksheet for those who need additional changes to access the learning with answers
Challenge tasks
Support strips that can be stuck in books
Everything is included that could be needed to run the lesson successfully, with each resource carefully considered in ensuring accessibility for all as well as ensuring there are plenty of opportunities for challenge to provide depth of understanding.
A lesson that was used to work on children's multiplication and division skills through recap activities as well as then looking at their ability to become fluent through missing number problems. Included are the slides and worksheet with answer.
Make Maths Matter is a 12 week intervention that is designed to build children's number confidence in Key Stage Two. Within the scheme is an explanation of the thinking behind the way it has been planned out and why it is important to start with the basics.
There is then a mini plan for the three sessions each week to be led by either a teacher or teaching assistant that explains the purpose of each session.
This is finished off by an Appendix that explains particular concepts in more details and gives a brief description of how each resource is to be used.
A lesson that focuses on being able to convert between cm and mm. Included is the lesson presentation that includes starter questions as well as support and challenge bubbles. There is also a worksheet that includes answers and a place value grid to support learning.
A fully resourced addition and subtraction lesson for being able to use the written subtraction method for subtracting one 4-digit number from another (with no exchange) in Year 4 based on the objective from White Rose Maths.
Included in the resource is:
A lesson PowerPoint with starter, vocabulary, modelling (with teacher notes) and guided practice
Lesson plan
Worksheet with answer sheet
Scaffolded worksheet with answer sheet
Modified worksheet for those who need additional changes to access the learning with answers
Challenge tasks
Support strips that can be stuck in books

A range of previous KS2 SATs questions from the reasoning papers where children have found these challenging. Each one includes a PowerPoint to look at the method and getting children to identify where the most efficient method is before getting them to work through some practice questions so they can apply the learning and become more confident.
Three pages of calculations and questions related to addition and subtraction that rise in challenge, starting with simple column addition and subtraction questions before moving to fluency, reasoning and problem solving style questions.
All of the arithmetic questions from the 2017 paper that can be cut out as simple question cards for children to practise. This provides a different way of practising key areas of the arithmetic paper rather than just giving children a practise paper.
A lesson for Year 5 based on adding fractions together from the White Rose Maths planning, with the focus being on recapping adding fractions using the same denominator. The lesson starts with a starter that recaps key arithmetic features they have studied to support fluency before working on two different models and getting children to answer questions using these. This then moves on to challenging their understanding before giving them practice questions and challenge questions to solve.
Pink bubbles are included to remind them what they can use whilst green bubbles provide extra challenge to those who finish.
Also included is a sheet with the two models and two challenge questions so they can be cut out and stuck in books if necessary.
Attached is a presentation with 2 sets of 5 questions and a third set with 7 questions that acts as a teaching point for solving equations, using the bar model to help picture equations and answers afterwards.
The presentation is available as both a Notebook and PowerPoint. Also included is a worksheet that gets children to practise as you are delivering the input, checking understanding and helping develop their confidence. Take children through the five questions together at the same pace, ensuring that most if not all children are confident and ready to start their activities following the input.
These are based on ideas from Singapore and Shanghai and have worked extremely well with children, leading to children who normally struggle talking through methods to the class.
A number of worksheets that check children's fluency with adding and subtracting fractions with different denominators by getting them to fill in the missing circles to complete the calculation. This includes simple ones as well as adding steps to the calculation process.
A PowerPoint lesson that focuses on the objective of substitutions from the Year 6 WRM planning. There is an arithmetic starter included as well as a number of questions to work through (including pink and green bubbles for support and challenge) where answers can then be discussed. Finally, reasoning and problem solving tasks from WRM are included.
A breakdown of all the questions from the KS2 2019 Maths papers, split in to the various year group strands they have come from (except for Year 6 as they tend to use full papers anyway). Some questions overlap as they share curriculum strands from two different year groups.
Included is also a breakdown of the questions in statistical form to show what each year group contributed in terms of marks.
These are useful for sharing with staff in KS2 to show the types of questions children are expected to do for each year group as well as breaking questions down if people wish to practise easier or more challenging questions.
