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.

Ten fully resourced lessons for a Year 6 unit on working with percentages. Included are PowerPoints for each lesson that also include an arithmetic starter as well as activities and challenge activities as appropriate.
The ten lessons are as follows:
Lesson One and Two - Converting between fractions, decimals and percentages
Lesson Three - Fraction, decimals and percentages equivalence
Lesson Four and Five - Comparing and order fractions, decimals and percentages
Lesson Six and Seven - Finding percentages of amounts (multiples of 10 and 5)
Lesson Eight, Nine and Ten - Finding percentages of amounts
A PowerPoint that focuses on a previous SATs question where children were asked to work out the value of the missing length around volume where they could solve it from the numbers they know. The presentation focuses on solving the question before working through other examples to practice and apply the method.
A triple lesson that focuses on being able to round numbers. The first lesson is used as a recap to support the understanding of basic rounding before a PowerPoint for the additional two lessons that includes an arithmetic starter as well as an activity with answers and challenge activities for those that are confident.
Two sets of worksheets that focus on the inverse operations, looking at how multiplication and division are interlinked and how addition and subtraction are interlinked by working on the corresponding number sentences.
An activity that gives children number facts for the 5x table within triangles with children then having to find all the facts they can from the given numbers. This can work well as a starter and helps children see the commutative whilst seeing the link of operations. Children can then be extended to think about how the = sign can move around and what fraction facts they can find.
A lesson for Year 6 that focuses on the place value of decimal numbers. Included is a PowerPoint that includes an arithmetic starter and questions with answers provided. There are also three challenge questions from WRM to take learning and understanding deeper.
A PowerPoint that includes all the questions from the 2018 KS2 Arithmetic paper on separate slides so that you can go through methods easily for each question individually should you wish/ should you use the 2018 paper for practise.
Two different worksheets that give the chance to practise multiplying a 3-digit number by a 2-digit number using the written method.
Both worksheets are set out in two ways: one where the questions are just written and children need to set them out and one where they are already set out ready. Answer sheets are also included for both sheets.
The first sheet focuses on multiplying a 3-digit number by a 1-digit number before then multiplying the same 3-digit number by a 2-digit number to introduce the new step. The final questions are then a range of 3-digit by 2-digit to apply the new learning.
The second sheet focuses on multiplying different 3-digit numbers by 2-digit numbers.
There is also a multiplication square attached to support if necessary.
Two sheets that look at helping children understand how to convert from an improper fraction to a mixed number fraction and vice versa. Both include pictorial representations to help children understand what the fraction looks like as well as having a colour coded step of instructions to complete it mathematically.
10 questions that check children's understanding of the 12 times table through more complex methods than just giving them a 12 times table test. Included are word problems, reasoning questions and showing the relationship between numbers.
A worksheet with word problems that look at testing children on picking out key information from the question then work out the fraction they are dividing and then complete the calculation with questions getting progressively harder.
Answers are included.
A mini-assessment for children based on a number of fraction topics. The idea of this assessment is to give them it before they begin a unit on fractions and then after again with improvement being shown in their knowledge and understanding. Questions towards the end also include elements of reasoning to show a deeper understanding.
N.B: Written with Year 6 in mind.
Answers are included on a separate page.
Blank squares of differing numbers that children can use as a laminated mat to help them solve problems involving fractions using the Singapore Bar model. Simply put the sheets back to back, laminate and children will have a reusable template for the Bar model.
It is a simple sheet but is just an idea for people to use and saves a few minutes creating it should you then wish to use it.
A lesson presentation and activity sheet that goes with it for practise questions. The focus is being able to find fractions of amounts by using the bar model to support them with an example, six practise questions that link to the sheet and a reasoning style question.
A fun game that can be used to revise being able to read coordinates or even as an activity as part of learning to read coordinates.
Included is a coordinates grid for themselves and an enemy grid to colour against with both of these being all four quadrants. Also included are pairs of ships for both players, either using the thinner versions or thicker versions.
A range of differentiated resources available for children that require them to use the Singapore Bar method to help them solve problems. These include finding fractions of quantities and finding original numbers from fractions as well as then working through a range of tricky word problems.
The final resource provides real challenge for children in working with a range of fractions and steps.
This resource contains the first of four packs designed to support the delivery of the White Rose Maths Scheme Year 5 – Decimals for the Summer Term.
The resource focuses on the following White Rose Maths ‘small steps’
Addition within 1
Subtraction within 1
Complements to 1
Adding - Crossing the whole
The resource contains worksheets / activities linked to the above small steps with an emphasis on the mastery approach to learning advocated by the White Rose scheme. The resource includes reasoning, problem solving and activities and varied fluency activities and tasks.
Complete set of planning, slides and worksheets to provide 14 lessons on the four operations, working between written methods, mental methods and also working on the order of operations. This has been written with Year 6 in mind but the resources are easily adaptable for other year groups.
The worksheets have written with mastery in mind and so follow the following structure:
Worksheet One - Works on practise and fluency
Worksheet Two - Practise, fluency and reasoning
Worksheet Three - Practise, fluency, reasoning and problem solving
Worksheet Four - Practise, fluency, reasoning and problem solving (This is a spare worksheet should children finish problem solving on worksheet three)
Differentiation is achieved through self-assessment of own abilities to choose which worksheet they do. The worksheets will be clear in which is LA, MA and HA.
Lesson 1 and 2 - Column addition and subtraction
Lesson 3 and 4 - Same as Lesson 1 and 2 but with decimal numbers
Lesson 5 and 6 - Adding and subtracting mentally
Lesson 7 and 8 - Written multiplication
Lesson 9 and 10 - Written division
Lesson 11 and 12 - Mental multiplication
Lesson 13 and 14 - Order of operations
These have had great success in previous lessons and challenge and stretch children of all abilities.
Three differentiated worksheets that work on algebraic equations for Year 6 children. Having used a similar format in my own lessons, these sheets often provide enough challenge for two days lessons, with children taking on the easier work then moving on to harder challenges within the other sheets.
These have all been made with mastery in mind and so follow this pattern.
Worksheet One - Works on practise and fluency
Worksheet Two - Practise, fluency and reasoning
Worksheet Three - Practise, fluency, reasoning and problem solving
