This powerpoint has been used for year 6 maths intevention. The group was a mixed ability class and so is well-differentiated. You can see how two students were asked to complete a different topic/activity based on what they needed. Feel free to add more questions/change the activities as your class need. Not only does it show how long division works (with animated questions, step-by-step) but it shows long division alongside short division so that students can see where ‘the numbers come from’. This gave them a much firmer understanding of the process/method and why they need to do what they’re doing. It also has a ‘spot the difference’ between a long division and a short division question from a SATs paper. This will help them to distinguish between the questions in their arithmetic paper. Sometimes students are confused which method it is that they need. Students made excellent progress and enjoyed the challenge of timing themselves when they felt confident. Students who weren’t confident with their multiplication tables were allowed to use multiplication grids/squares to help them.
