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 worksheet that requires children to practise being able to find fractions of amounts. As well as a number of practise questions there are then also reasoning/ problem solving style questions with the answers also included.
A worksheet that requires children to practise being able to find the whole based on fractions of amounts. As well as a number of practise questions there are then also reasoning/ problem solving style questions with the answers also included.
Two PowerPoint lessons that focus on the objective of one step and two step functions 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 complete (bar properties of shapes due to copyright) scheme of work for maths in Year 6 for the first two terms with fully resourced lessons, including PowerPoints that have arithmetic starters, worksheets with answers and challenge tasks for children who complete these accurately.
The units are as follows with the number of lessons in brackets:
Algebra (10 lessons)
Converting Units (5 lessons)
Decimals (10 lessons)
Four Operations (20 lessons)
Fractions (24 lessons)
Percentages (10 lessons)
Perimeter, Area and Volume (10 lessons)
Place Value (10 lessons)
Position and Direction (5 lessons)
Ratio (5 lessons)
Statistics (5 lessons)
10 questions that check children's understanding of the 8 times table through more complex methods than just giving them a 8 times table test. Included are word problems, reasoning questions and showing the relationship between numbers.
A series of PowerPoint lesson that focuses on some of the algebra objectives from the Year 6 WRM planning including variables, one step functions, two step functions and substitutions. 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.
Also included is a two lesson PowerPoint and activity focusing on finding the values of letters when they are a set value as part of an equation. Answers are included with the worksheet that provides practice and challenge.
There is also a PowerPoint full of previous SATs questions that link to algebra or can be shown to link to algebra.
Finally, there are some puzzles to work out the value of shapes and a Premier League table activity that has potential variables.
A double lesson that focuses on being able to find fractions of amounts. Included is a PowerPoint for the lesson that includes an arithmetic starter as well as an activity with answers and four challenge activities for those that are confident.
A breakdown of all the questions from the KS2 2017 Maths papers, split in to the various year group strands they have come from. 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.
A lesson that focuses on being able to find square and cube numbers. Included is a PowerPoint for the lesson that includes an arithmetic starter as well as an activity with answers and three challenge activities for those that are confident.
Two sets of 10 questions that check children's understanding of the 6 times table through more complex methods than just giving them a 6 times table test. Included are word problems, reasoning questions and showing the relationship between numbers.
Mini-assessments that cover nearly all of the curriculum statements for Year 5 Maths. The only statements missing relate to estimations and some of the shape statements.
The idea is that if they can do a particular question without any teaching or a few weeks after some teaching then you have the evidence to tick and say they can do it. Question 1 generally relates to beginning, 2 is middleish with the third question then helping show they are secure in that statement.
40 cards that look at addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Handy to just give children as a challenge task or a starter to get them thinking, with questions that challenge fluency, reasoning and problem solving.
Written with 5/6 in mind but could be used in other year groups.
Two lessons on volume that introduce the concept, thinking about cubes and cuboids and their properties initially. This then moves on to working through practice examples and questions where there is chance for children to practice before seeing if they are right. Included are pink and green bubbles to support and challenge before it then moves on to one of the two activity sheets. The second lesson then follows up with some recap before focussing on challenge questions before children continue with their activity, checking mistakes and finishing off challenge questions.
A Maths game that works on revising some key vocabulary such as prime numbers, multiples and using the greater than and less than symbol as well as opening up varied discussion about why particular numbers fit where they do or why they should be used elsewhere. Everything needed to play this is attached including an explanation of the rules. Perfect for a starter, plenary or just for a 5-10 minute break where they can practise some reasoning activities.
10 questions that check children's understanding of the 10 times table through more complex methods than just giving them a 10 times table test. Included are word problems, reasoning questions and showing the relationship between numbers.
A brief PowerPoint that can be used as part of a bigger revision session that focuses on the radius and diameter of circles. Included are some starter questions to focus on radius and diameter. This is then followed by practice questions and the example question from the 2017 reasoning paper where there was a radius and diameter question.
A double lesson that focuses on being able to read and plot coordinates in all four quadrant. Included is a PowerPoint for the lesson that includes an arithmetic starter as well as an activity with answers and four challenge activities for those that are confident.
A sheet with two place value grids on that can be photocopied and sliced up to be used. The place value grid follows the idea of splitting the place values into threes to help show how thousands and millions truly work as well as signposting where commas should go. It also shows decimal points and the following three values after the decimal point, as well as showing their fraction equivalence.
