Maths resources

From a list students select the compass direction or directions that children on a playground grid need to move to reach pieces of equipment or objects.

For this NEMP task students interpret a table of Olympic 1500-metre times, identifying fastest and slowest times.

For this NEMP task students represent the number six in ten different ways using the four arithmetic operations.

Students calculate different fractions of given whole numbers.

Students calculate fractions of whole numbers using number of goals scored in a soccer season.

Students identify given fractions of sets.

Students identify windows that are covered by curtains for given fractions.

Students match the descriptions: certain, impossible, good chance, poor chance, even chance to a set of probabilities shown as a fraction.

This task requires students to interpret a pie graph about sports watched on TV and answer multiple choice questions.

Students identify the smallest fraction of a turn so that a shape remains the same.

Students calculate the scale factor and length of one side of a building extension, then draw in a different extension from a given scale factor.

Students select from a range of given numbers to complete a 4 x 4 'number square' with given row and column totals.

Students identify the coins that make up specified amounts of money.

Students complete addition and subtraction story problems using the vertical algorithm.

For this NEMP task students draw the other half of a shape by using its line of symmetry.

Students perform addition, subtraction and division calculations based on numbers of coloured jelly beans.

Students use matchsticks to continue a triangular spatial pattern and write a rule to describe the number needed for each pattern. They then complete a table and a rule to show the relationship between the number of triangles and the number of matchsticks.

Students calculate the area of a composite shape.

This practical task requires students to order numbers with 2 decimal places from smallest to largest using digit cards. New numbers with 2 decimal places are then created with the digit cards.

Using grids, students show three different ways of tessellating four identical shapes.
