The UK went metric some years ago but not everyone has had the memo! Distances are still measured in miles, market sellers sell their fruit and veg by the lb and most people measure their weight in stones - all very confusing for children who learn about measurement from an early age in school.

This starter appeals to all children as it offers a challenge to every ability. A funny character appears on the screen with each section of his body containing a number. The pupils chose a number, such as 10, and make up an interesting way to reach it. Less able children might suggest that 1 + 9 = 10, another child might suggest that 5 x 2 = 10 while a more able child might suggest that 10 = the square root of 100! The teacher selects a child to tap the smartboard and, lo and behold, the body part disappears! This starter is open-ended which means that every child is fully engaged in the process.
