Ambleweb Numeracy Hour

  
Mainly suitable for:
Well suited for use in UK schools KS1, KS2
Review: An impressive collection of Numeracy related games, puzzles, teaching tools and resources that are ideal for class and group teaching or for children working alone. The activities have been made by adults and children from Ambleweb school. The teaching tools are an excellent resource for using on an interactive whiteboard. For example the tools contained in the ‘Teaching Angles’ section are so visually attractive and simple that they make it easy to teach a lesson on estimating angles and then measuring the angle to see who had the nearest guess. This would not be as effective if a teacher used only a large protractor and had drawn an angle on the board. Teachers of all age groups can find resources here – number lines, number squares, graphs, clocks, games where children can practice skills, interactive geometry tools and interactive maths quizzes. An excellent site to support teachers in embedding ICT into the maths curriculum.

Review: This group of lesson plans came from the a group of teachers from America. This webpage simply lists them with a brief description of the content and the learning objective for each lesson. These lesson are really interesting and would need little adapting to use in UK schools. Indeed some could be used in their existing format. The lessons cover different aspect of maths and the intended age level is indicated clearly. Maths topics covered include Mental maths, ratio, addition, division, money, estimating and algebra.

How long does it take?

  
Mainly suitable for:
Well suited for use in UK schools KS2
Review: This is another worksheet from Primary Resources that is designed to be used in a lesson on ´time´. It requires the children to perform a series of simple activities and to time how long it takes them to perform each. They then have to estimate how long it would take them to do the activity a given number of times. This could be useful in reinforcing pupils ability to measure time accurately and also carry out estimations using time. The final part of the worksheet asks children to calculate how many hours and minutes there are on the entire worksheet. This is quite a challenge! Overall, a useful actvity that children would probably enjoy doing.

Review: This worksheet is a very simple activity which would be useful for young children developing a knowledge of measuring and length. This worksheet asks children to think about what units (m or cm) they would use to measure particular objects. They are then asked to estimate the lengths and finally measure them and record them on the sheet. It is anticipated that this will be used as part of a practical measuring session. It is part of the excellent Primary Resources website which offers a wide range of quality resources free of charge to Primary teachers.
