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.

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.
Activities that require children to use known facts to then be able to reason how to solve other calculations. Each page gives children a known fact and then calculations where the numbers have been manipulated and a box where they can explain how to use the known fact to find the answer.
A lesson that focuses on being able to translate shapes. 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 lesson made for Year 5/6 that takes on an arithmetic style lesson but incorporates challenge through green bubbles, variation and challenge questions taken from the NCETM documents. The lesson focuses on the link between operations so that children can identify missing numbers in an incomplete equation before beginning to look at this algebraically. Also included is an 11x starter that gets them to then see the inverse.
Activities that require children to use known facts to then be able to reason how to solve other calculations. Each page gives children a known fact and then calculations where the numbers have been manipulated and a box where they can explain how to use the known fact to find the answer.
Two sets of sheets 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 with the second place value grid then including up to three decimal places.
Also included are place value counters. They all say 1, 10 or 100 on them but have the colour of the place value section they belong to. They have been created this way rather than saying 10,000 on so that children can gain a better understanding of the values within each three sets and the reason for 0.
A coloured chart that helps children revise the different fraction, decimals and percentages. Can be used for display or stuck in books/ organisers for children to revise from.
A lesson input presentation of being able to find fractions of amounts using the Bar Model. Included is also a practise sheet that children can use on the practise questions.
A set of three differentiated worksheets that work on mental addition and subtraction for Year 5 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 (LA)
Worksheet Two - Practise, fluency and reasoning (MA)
Worksheet Three - Practise, fluency, reasoning and problem solving (HA)
Worksheet Four - Same as worksheet three as a spare for anybody who finishes problem solving
Answers are included for each sheet.
112 slides with 5 questions on each that act as quick oral/mental starter questions. These cover a range of topics that children in Year 5 and 6 will cover in Maths. These can be used as a quick starter for children to work through with answers then being looked at as continual mini-teaching moments.
These include:
Adding and subtracting fractions.
Multiplying and dividing fractions.
Finding fractions of quantities,
Simplifying fractions and finding equivalent fractions.
Using written methods for division, multiplication, addition and subtraction.
Multiplying and dividing by 10,100 and 1000.
Finding perimeter and area of shapes.
Finding percentages of numbers.
Calculating using negative numbers.
An assessment that can be used to check children's knowledge and understanding when it comes to converting measures. Written with Year 6 in mind but could be used in other year groups. It can be used as a pre and post teaching assessment or a post teaching assessment to check what children have retained. Answers are included.
10 practise Arithmetic papers with 20 questions in each to use for practise in Year 6 ahead of the new Key Stage 2 Arithmetic assessment. These questions have been formed by using the exemplar material and other practise papers released. These have then been used to look at the type of questions that appear regularly, with these then being tested regularly throughout the various tests.
It will provide children with test practise as well as regularly being able to review what children understand and what they still need to work on.
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.
This is then followed up with 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 bundle of seven different sets of worksheets for fractions within Year 6.
Each set of three differentiated worksheets that work on multiplying fractions together 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 (LA)
Worksheet Two - Practise, fluency and reasoning (MA)
Worksheet Three - Practise, fluency, reasoning and problem solving (HA)
Worksheet Four - Same as worksheet three as a spare for anybody who finishes problem solving
Answers are included for each sheet.

Five lessons that form a week focusing on being able to work with number bonds and being able to partition numbers.
The lesson sequence for the week is as follows:
Lesson 1 and 2 - Bonds within and up to 10
Lesson 3 and 4 - Bonds within 20
Lesson 5 - Partitioning numbers
Each lesson has a lesson PowerPoint with vocabulary, discussion, practice and then time for activities. There is an activity per lesson and challenge activities for each lesson to check children’s understanding.
Lesson 1 and 2 and then lesson 3 and 4 act as double lessons with the majority of teaching being done in the first lesson before a chance for a recap and to address any misconceptions in the second lesson.
The lessons work as either an introduction for the first time or as a recap/ introduction back into maths following the holidays.
A worksheet that provides a variety of questions linked to being able to calculate the area of triangles.
Included as part of the worksheet are 10 different questions that provide variation to check understanding through the use of different models, representations and question styles.
Answers are also included for all questions.
Can easily be used as a worksheet when teaching the objective or used for recap/ revision or even to be sent home as homework.
