When I am revising maths, I like to ask a question and then the students answer it on their mini whiteboards. We then check the answer on the following slide. I have combined the test papers with the marking scheme, making teaching and learning a lot more fun. There is differentiated revision material. There are tests for levels 3 - 5, and tests for level 6, and some which are for all the students. All the students should try all the tests, to both consolidate and extend their learning to make sure they have the maximum chance of reaching their true potential. I have presented them in the different PowerPoint formats for the older and more modern computers. Did you know pairing a high achieving and less high achieving child together actually helps both? As the more advanced student explains how to solve a problem, they too improve their knowledge of mathematical vocabulary.

These five complete PowerPoint lessons help to teach a student about division and multiplication. Each of the lessons starts with a mental warm up. This is followed by a fun, interactive, whole class learning session. The lessons finish with fun, differentiated learning challenges.

I have developed a set of weekly Mental Maths for Year 3 children for teachers who want to include Minecraft in the classroom. I wanted to develop resources where a teacher can teach with Minecraft in a classroom with a single computer and a projector. I need to mention that Minecraft was created by Mojang AB. and I am not endorsed, associated or affiliated with Mojang AB in any way.

FREE Maths PowerPoint Presentations for DFES SpringBoard 5 (Also Use As Year 4 Booster Lessons) FREE Maths Lessons Content: Lesson 1: Developing your preferred ways of doing multiplication. Lesson 2: The area method of doing multiplication Lesson 3: The idea of 'carrying' when doing multiplication Lesson 4: Developing the area method for doing multiplication. Lesson 5: Using doubling in multiplication Lesson 6: Developing a doubling - and - addition method of doing multiplication Lesson 7: Finding pairs of factors Lesson 8: Division of larger numbers Lesson 9: Division as repeated subtraction Lesson 10: Developing a standard method Lesson 11: Flexible approaches to division. Years ago I wrote series of numeracy lessons which converted all the DFES Numeracy SpringBoard 5 lessons into interactive PowerPoint lessons. I think these will still be great for optional SATS revision also also for covering lessons, or for giving to supply teachers. Please leave a comment.

I have been a keen fan of this book for a long time. I was really excited to see as part of the Open Government scheme, I was able to take this book and make it into something I believe is much more user friendly. When I used the original book with an interactive whiteboard, I was always annoyed at having to skim to the end of the book to show an answer. I wanted it on the next page. In addition, I have now replaced all the pictured with much more stimulating colourful pictures. I have also taken the time to follow the advice of Dudley council and sorted the different problems into age groups and blocks. You will notice there is some repetition of problems both between blocks and in different year groups. The students can try the same problem twice at different times, as this is excellent consolidation. It is also an excellent time to suggest students think about how they could change the problem. How can this be used in the classroom? This could be used as an assessment at the start or the end of a unit. It also could be used as an emergency set of lessons for any teacher while covering another teacher’s maths classes. In addition, it is also an excellent set of resources to prepare for different exams. Look at how the students resolve a problem and identify the different ways different students attempt to answer the same problem. In addition to answering the problems, this is also an excellent time to look into inverse operations. How do we know we have found all the answers? How do we know we have found the correct answer? I have really enjoyed making these mental maths problems a lot more accessible. I have enjoyed teaching them in a wide range of different classes and I hope that you too will enjoy making maths fun.

I want to make KS2 SATs revision fun. I want it to be something students and teachers really enjoy. I have taken each of the SATs revision tests and combined the original test papers and the original marking schemes into PowerPoints where you ask a question and immediately see the the answer on the next slide. This teaching packs covers KS2 Maths and KS2 SATs SPAG tests (Spag is English grammar, punctuation and spelling Papers) The idea is that you can now ask a question and all your students show you the answer on their mini-whiteboards and then you discuss the answers together and see what would have got one or two points. As the students can work in pairs or small groups on the questions, they are less stressed and enjoy the whole revision process. In addition, it gives them a chance to learn about other student’s strategies. This pack could be used in the classroom for whole class teaching, for small groups or at home as a great teaching resource.
