Interpreting graphs

(25)
Levelled questions on line graphs and block graphs with APP links Gladiator themed In response to people asking for the answers, I found with my class that the children produced a range of readings from the line graphs and therefore would produce a range of answers, all equally correct. I deliberately wanted the activity to be open ended - some children used reading rounded to the nearest ten, an element that I hadn't anticipated.

Deliberate practise short and long multiplication

(0)
20 questions with answers for short multiplication and 20 questions with answers for long multiplication. Each set of questions has groups of multiplication calculations with the same single digit to multiply by to build up confidence in process. The three digit numbers change each time. After a series of multiplying by the same single digit, the digit is changed. The last few calculations change the order of the numbers to encourage thinking. With multiplication by a two digit number, the two digit numbers begin with the same teens value to encourage confidence in process before changing the tens value. The last few questions change the order of the calculations.

APP linked activity where the children were given a sheet to write in decimal measurements, then use place value to convert the measurements. The acitivy was differentiated by the children being given decimal cards to use to fill in their grid. The l.a children had decimal cards to one d.p; the middle cards to 2dp and the tops had a mixture of dp. The tops were also expected to convert their measurements into imperial measurement using a calculator
