May 2016: New Resources

Mystery Grids: Ratio & Factors!

Ratio Mystery Grids

This month we've uploaded two new sets of mystery grids. In these tasks students must use a set of clues to work out the missing numbers in the grids. The first set of activities is all about ratio - students must work out the numbers in the grid based on the ratios between them. The second activity is about factors and multiples, including prime and square numbers. In total there are six different activities at a range of difficulty levels.

Subtraction Puzzles

Calculations: Subtraction Puzzles & Dividing Fractions

For students working on the four operations, check out these subtraction puzzles. They include a set of calculations where some of the digits are missing. A few of the questions are quite challenging and designed to really test understanding of the standard written method.

We also have new resources on multiplying and dividing fractions. Check out this calculation match, where students must use the idea that dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal to match equivalent calculations. We also have this dividing fractions missing calculations activity that requires students to work out the missing numbers in a set of divisions. Includes some work with mixed numbers.

plans and elevations and 3d drawing on isometric paper

Plans & Elevations / 3D Drawing on Isometric Paper

We have new activities to motivate drawing on isometric paper, including this activity that requires students to draw solids with a given surface area or volume. Also check out this plans and elevations matching activity, where students have to work out which views belong to which solids. Finally, this activity, requires students to draw the plans and elevations of solids from an isometric drawing of them.

Highest Common Factor & Lowest Common Multiple

Highest Common Factor & Lowest Common Multiple

This activity contains a set of varied problems where students will need to think about using the highest common factor and lowest common multiple. Using the prime factorisation will help with some of the problems.

graphing inequalities tool

Graphing Inequalities Tools

This month we've made two interactive tools to help introduce the idea of graphing inequalities to students. The first interactive tool focuses on describing and recognising the regions enclosed by horizontal and vertical lines. The second tool addresses more complicated inequalities such as 4y - x < 8
