Maths calculating time intervals with Amazon rainforest link

(0)
Links to cross curricular theme - Amazon rainforest. This is a challenging maths activity where pupils have to calculate how long the journey takes from Manchester airport to Manaus airport in the Amazon rainforest. Pupils will have to calculate up to 3 different flights per journey and include any layover or connection times in their final total journey time answer. On the activity worksheet, there are six different journeys all with the same destination. Pupils could be further challenged by calculating which journey is the quickest/slowest and order them. The flight times have been taken from the internet and were accurate on 22nd April 2017. We have been reading Journey to the River Sea in class and Maia (main character) in the book travels from England to Manaus, so this activity is a great link.

KS2 SATs arithmetic question sets

(0)
9 full KS2 SATs Arithmetic tests. 36 questions in each paper. 30 mins to complete. Answers included. I hate paper waste so I have created these tests on one piece of paper for pupils to complete, rather than printing out arithmetic booklets that waste tons of paper. I have used these in a variety of ways: pupils have used jotters and maths books for working out then written their answers on the sheets; they have had 1 sheet between 2 and completed the whole test in maths books and I have also displayed the sheet on the iwb and pupils have made their way through the test.

Orienteering Clues with maths link

(0)
cross curricular orienteering clues - 2D and 3D shapes 10 orienteering clues for OAA PE lessons with 10 flags and score cards for teams of 2. I laminated the flags, hole punched, attached string then dotted them around the school field attached to the fence, trees and other objects. I then paper clipped the shape clues to the flags. I gave each pair of children a different shape which they then had to find the properties for and the number of the flag that the clues were attached to. Aimed at KS2.
