Colourful monster characters invite pupils to cover a 6 by 6 square with 1/4, 1/3, 2/9, and 1/12 of 36 with a square or rectangle in order to reveal a hidden square. For the second challenge pupils have to find 1/4, 1/5, 1/20, 1/10, 1/25 and 2/10 of 100 to reveal a hidden square. This pair work gives an opportunity for practical activity and discussion. Square numbers, fractions of an amount and shape are included in this fully animated resource. The last task is open ended where pupils can invent their own challenge.

This fully animated resource with fun monster characters invites pupils to consider a square divided into 18 triangles. Halves, thirds, sixths and ninths are displayed. The slides offer an opportunity to talk about what they see. This activity leads into 2 dice games. The first game, played in pairs, pupils take turns to roll the dice. On their turn they have to colour the correct fraction onto a copy of the square . The winner is the first to complete the whole square.The second is an open activity which challenges pupils to make up their own game for halves, fifths, quarters and tenths.

Match 10 graphs, tables and equations. Print off and use in pairs.

There are two PowerPoints. At the Gym and The Health Centre This resource has questions relating to The Health Centre. Making Appointments. Prescriptions. Baby Clinics. Diabetes. BMI. A learner should be able to: • understand and use whole numbers in practical contexts • add, subtract, multiply and divide whole numbers using a range of strategies • add and subtract decimals up to two decimal places • solve simple problems involving ratio, where one number is a multiple of the other • use simple formulae expressed in words for one- or two-step operations • solve problems requiring calculation, with common measures, including money, time, length, weight, capacity • convert units of measure in the same system • extract and interpret information from tables, diagrams, charts and graphs At the Gym includes Membership costs, Swimming distance, Vending machine, Area and perimeter of gym and Tiling.

This animated resource is ideal for recapping. There are 2 activities and 2 questions. The first activity consists of 20 slides showing a magician performing a trick. The students have to predict which trick he will do. Then data is collected. The other activity shows a conveyor belt with ten items and students have to remember as many as possible in 30 seconds. This is an interactive, engaging resource. There are 2 extended questions, one based on Zener cards and telepathy. The other on a matching game. The last part involves estimating the mean. Revised 15th June 2017 so that data can be entered via the keyboard.

This fun, colourful and animated investigation engages students with the latest craze in a meaningful way. How many ways of capturing Pokemon?
