Converting between cm and mm (WORD PROBLEMS) in the context of a Spider Olympics (Long Jump). There is a presentation with a short story and then some word problems to do together. Also, I have uploaded a sheet of differentiated word problems that I cut out and allow children to collect and tackle More…. The easiest problems are in the left hand column, the most difficult are on the right. Best for Y4 or 5, but could still be done at Y3 or even with struggling Y6s.
