This resource features a comprehensive flipchart with mental starters and main lesson activities. Lesson objectives are conveniently organized in a skills grid. Worksheets are included for lessons 3 and 5, while adaptable resources from TES can be used for other lessons.
Bonus: A PowerPoint version is now available for those who don’t use Active Inspire!
The first Flipchart was uploaded 2016, the additional files were added 8 years later! in 2024.
This lesson is a basic lesson to get pupils measuring MM and CM and being able to convert the two, this lesson will be a good base to then move children to convert to KM,CM,MM.
In Week 1, pupils will explore 2D and 3D shapes, focusing on identifying, naming, and describing their properties. Activities will include recognising common 2D shapes such as squares, rectangles, triangles, and circles, and understanding 3D shapes like cubes, cuboids, spheres, and cylinders.
Because i taught this unit after addition and subtraction in term two i’ve named it Week 5, but it’s first week of teaching shape in Year 2.
Pupils will also learn to describe shapes using mathematical vocabulary, such as “sides,” “vertices,” “edges,” and “faces,” and begin to sort shapes based on their properties. Practical tasks, including hands-on exploration with shape manipulatives and sorting activities, will build their understanding. Lessons align with the White Rose Maths Scheme, ensuring structured progression and a strong foundation for geometry skills. Adaptive resources are included to support all learners.

This resource is differentiated for LA to divide by 10, MA to divide by 10,100 and HA to divide and multiply by 10 and 100. I have also added a whole weeks flipcharts for teaching decimals.
This resource focuses on teaching students how to convert between kilograms (kg) and grams (g). Through engaging activities and practical exercises, students learn the relationship between these two units of mass, developing their understanding of metric conversions. The resource includes clear explanations, visual aids, and practice worksheets that guide students through converting from kilograms to grams and vice versa, reinforcing their mathematical skills in a real-world context. Perfect for building confidence in measurement conversions, this resource is an essential tool for mastering mass in the metric system.
A variety of mental starters as well as Mathematical vocabulary that children can repeat before a topic in Maths. Works brilliantly with my class. This is a Promethean flip-chart that uses Active inspire.
Update: I’ve included Powerpoint now.

This is a 2 week worth of work and resources, differentiated worksheets on Addition, Subtraction, Inverse, Estimating as well as flip charts provided. The lesson worksheets are also differentiated and a few reasoning questions included. This is all based on the new National curriculum. These lessons were taught to Year 4 children, however they are applicable to Year 5,6 and more able in Year 3,
You may notice that the model answers, are not answered. This is because you are suppose to hand write them, and when the photocopies are given to children they can see how you worked it out. If you don't use everything here, you will definitely use something when teaching addition and subtraction. These resources are worth £30, but you will have it all for £3. Now that's a bargain!
Early Morning work that is sure to get children thinking.
Here are some examples from the PowerPoint:
1. Think of at least 5 WOW words to describe a sandwich. (remember to use your senses)
