Here are today's questions. There are two problems for KS1 and two for KS2. In KS1 problem children have to find missing numbers in an addition pyramid and see if they can reason to find a missing number in a different one. They then have to solve a multi-step problem, which initially looks easier than it actually is. At KS2 children have to be able to adding fractions and decimals together and convert between fraction and decimal. For the second question children have to adding and subtract decimals after converting to the same unit of measure.

Here are two problems for KS1 and two for KS2. In KS1 children have to solve two number puzzles. The first one involves simple operations. The second problem involves fractions. Although the second problem seems quite simple it will tease out lots of misconceptions. At KS2 children have to reason and problem solve with two shape problems. The first one involves working out the length of a square given the area and the second problem requires a little bar modelling, algebra or trialand error.

Today's problems are ones that involve number. There are two problems for KS1 and two for KS2. In KS1 problem children have to use simple multiplication facts to work out the length of a particular rectangle. They then have to find a missing value given a total, perhaps using a bar model. At KS2 children have two problems they have to solve involve number properties. The first one they have to know what factors make up a particular number and in the second problem they have to find a particular number that satisfies particular criteria.

There are two problems for KS1 and three for KS2. In the KS1 problems children have to use information to find the cost of particular items or length of strips of paper. Children could be encouraged to use strip diagrams or bar models to solve the problems. At KS2 the problems involve fractions of amounts. Some of the questions are quite challenging. Again bar modelling can be used if you want to solve the majority of these problems. If you want more info on bar modelling feel free to email the Maths Hub.

Today's problems are ones that involve reasoning and problem solving with the numbers. There are two problems for KS1 and two for KS2. In KS1 problem children have to use a number line to work out the size of the interval and then locate a particular number. Children then have to work out the highest and lowest numbers you can make given three digit cards. Version 2 of the Y2 problems has a slightly less demanding problem Q1 that might be good as a warm up. At KS2 children also need to find intervals on a number line, but the problem is a little more involved.. The second problem should be tacked systematically.
