Hello! Thanks for viewing my shop. I've been teaching now for over 10 years and was a teaching assistant before that. I'm currently teaching Year 3/4 but have taught in EYFS, Year 1 and 2, & Yr 6. I've worn many hats during my teaching career and I'm now deputy head of a small but ever growing successful first school!
I love creating resources that can be used to capture and engage the children in my class that allow them to really enjoy their learning.Please get in touch and leave feedback!

**The aim is to improve pupils scores over the year and parents/teachers are encouraged to either record time or score to see if the child can better themselves each time.
I also use these in class as revision aids or for quick games like make a column or row v a partner. Recently, I’ve started quizzing my class at the end of the week on the colour that they are on in the style of a Maths Bee! A bit like a spelling bee but obviously with Maths facts! The children love it!**
I also use these as homework activities every week! That means there are 23 weeks worth of Mental Maths Homework with this resources
This is set 3 and covers curriculum areas in Years 3 and 4
Included in this resource is set 3 of challenges that I send home to parents to help increase my pupil’s mental maths abilities and readiness for any impending Multiplication test at the end of Year 4!
The pdf is a thorough guide on how to use and gives yourself and the parents suggestions on how to use and adaptations to try at home.
There are 23 challenges with 13-15 questions for each challenge.
Each challenge/colour set is broken down into 3 abilities. 1 star 2 stars and 3 stars.
I really hope that these help support and further your class. Any feedback would be welcome as I’m currently trying to create other sets for Reception to Year 2.
Many thanks

This 1 more/less 10more/less hunt can be differentiated many ways. I have already differentiated it 5 ways for my own class and printed out the sheets on different coloured paper for each group to find. Once the children have found the coloured shape that they've been given they must solve 1 more/less or 10 more less depending on their ability. They record on the answer sheets provided in the download.
I hope this helps and feel free to differentiated to suit your class.
Many thanks
The children must try and solve which numbers are covered up to get the correct answer.
Some questions have more than one way of making the answer.
There are two worksheets with 6 q's on each.
Many thanks

Hi,
This resourse focus on allowing the children to engage in key critical thinking skills and practice their skills in place value, adding and subtracting.
The 20 questions vary from asking the children to Fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction and reading and writing numbers to 1000 using base-ten numerals and number names.
I’ve included a word version so you can edit the questions to suit the needs of your class.
Here’s some suggested ways to use this resource.
Cut them up and laminate them- place them on the tables and ask your pupils to collaboratively solve them.
Stick them in the children’s books and get them to answer them.
After the children have solved a few ask them to place them in order of difficulty - ask them why and what they found most difficult.
Thanks for buying this resource and I really hope that it helps your class with their learning.
Here is 1 sheet of 10 more 10 less 1 less 1 more puzzle grids. Ask the children to try and solve the number sentences to solve the numbers they must add/subtract 1 or 10 more/less than. I've included some coins for the children to recognise and keep their skills up to date.
Thanks

Hi,
This resource focuses on multiplication, area and perimeter and allows the children to use reasoning and problem solving skills to solve two investigations. The investigations focus on the 9 and 8 times tables.
Investigation 1:
Santa wants a new floor design for his grotto 10m x 10m and a new floor design for his ballroom 20 m x 20 m (for higher attainers)
Investigation 2:
Santa would like to know how many presents fit in each room. Children have to work together to solve.
There is a short task to solve the presents area and perimeter which involves the 9 and 8 x tables.
Feel free to edit this resource to suit the needs of your class. For example, you could change the multiplication, area size to 5 x 5 or change the grotto to the sleigh. Also you could change the actual measurement to cm and get children to draw in books.
I am going to get children to cut areas from spare grids and place on until they have a final version. I’m also going to set my highers off with the challenge of only using calculations to solve first.
Hope your class enjoy it and have an awesome Christmas!
