A maths investigation based on 3D shape.. I used this with years 5 and 6. It is good for SATS practice as it gets them to explain their answer.

Here are 6 different tasks I made. They are reasoning problems all based on some of the old Nrich maths problems for more able children upper KS2- but all altered and with a Christmas theme. Eric the elf Elf City Christmas Treats Mother Claus good Deals? North Pole Diner Christmas Animal Crackers Pack includes all 6 of the reasoning problems/tasks on easy to print/laminate individual sheets and all answers. This is a fun activity that keeps the learning going until Christmas and my class are loving these. I may well make some more (if I have time!)

Some word problems all require division and some require another operation too as they are multi-step. All Christmas themed and answers provided. I will be using these with years 5 and 6 next month Merry Christmas

This pack includes 3 of my maths mastery/reasoning activities for KS2, all with an ELF Christmas theme. All answers included.

I made these tasks for my class to focus on now the SATS are over. They are loving them so far. They love working in groups and presenting to the class. It also creates a healthy bit of competition. Both group tasks involve working collaboratively, budgeting, research , recording information and preparing a presentation. They are clear and visual and give them plenty of clues and instructions- they also take up a good few lessons! Enjoy! Lots more availabe at: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/richbreeds
