I have created resources for nRich, University of Cambridge, University of Plymouth, Abacus and various other publishing organisations.
Do your children find counting and visualising numbers difficult? Do they need extra resources on hand to help them work independently? Then look no further than this set of 5 number lines with different scales: 0 to 30 with colour-coded 10 blocks. (Y1 to Y4 version) 0 to 20 with colour-coded 5 blocks and marked quarters and halves. -9 to 0 with intervals of 1. (Y3 to Y6 version) 0-100 with colour-coded 10 blocks. 0-1000 with colour-coded 100 blocks. Number lines are essential tools for understa
Do your children need practice solving problems and puzzles? Do you need activities that specifically practise reasoning about multiplication? Then look no further than this ‘Start the Day’ activity pack.

LESSON TYPE: Investigation and Low-Threshold High Ceiling This is a full lesson PowerPoint for KS2 children. The lesson is a Low-Threshold High-Ceiling task as defined by nRich and the University of Cambridge. It can be used as an 'out-of-the-box' lesson, whereby teachers can simply use the PowerPoint to generate a lesson filled with child-led interaction, problem solving skills, deeper understanding, and challenge for all. This lesson is appropriate for challenging all students between Years 3
A collection of 20 ‘Start the Day’ activities to support your children’s mathematics reasoning and problem solving skills whilst also developing their fluency in addition, subtraction, algebra and even compass directions.
Do you operate a ‘ mastery’ classroom? Do your students take too long to recall addition and subtraction facts, or worse, cannot recall them at all? Look no further than this Daily Fluency with Calculations booklet. This resource has been developed through a proven research-based approach. The sequence of sessions follows a specific sequence which helps children to build upon common techniques of calculation. For example, the first week is as follows: Day 1: Adding 9 Day 2: Subtracting 9 Day 3:
