Written Calculation Methods for Years 3, 4, 5 and 6
Spring Term 2021
We have made a series of four videos for each of the four operations for each year group to show the written methods that our children in KS2 are currently using to add, subtract, multiply and divide.
Please click on the links below to view these.
Maths on the Move!
Home challenge sheets are available for Year 1&2, Year 3&4 and Year 5&6. A great way to practise maths skills but keep on the move too!
We'd love to see photos of you completing the challenges. Send them to your year group email addresses.

Interactive Puzzles
There are lots of interactive games and puzzles on the nrich website.
Click here to explore some.
Try this one...
In Teddy Town, teddies are either red or yellow and they live in red or yellow houses. There are 4 teddies - 2 red and 2 yellow, and 4 houses - 2 red and 2 yellow.
Can you match each teddy to a house so that the four pairs are all different from each other?
If you solve that quickly, the puzzle gets harder so well done and keep going!
