Number and Algebra resources

Students give answers to basic facts in multiplication and division.

Students solve story problems involving multiplication and division.

Students show how to break given amounts into a number of equal sized groups and find the amount each person gets.

Students calculate how many adults got into a concert for free using information about the number of concert-goers and the ratio of free adults to children.

Students perform calculations using standard form.

Students circle part of a collection of fruit pictures to show their understanding of fractional numbers.

Students find the biggest and smallest numbers from a list of positive and negative numbers. They add, subtract and multiply using these numbers.

This task is about subtracting with different parts of the equation missing.

Students use sticks to continue given patterns, and identify the number of sticks needed to make the new shapes in the pattern

Students interpret a line graph showing the distance travelled and the time for two car journeys and answer questions about time, distance and speed.

Students identify the number of dots in the <i>n</i>th shape of a series of spatial patterns.

Students complete number pairs, and write the equations for three 'number machines'.

Students complete and interpret a graph to answer questions about time, distance and speed.

Students select the correct algebraic expression describing practical situations.

Students explain the variables in a linear equation involving speed and distance. They then solve the equation by substitution.

Students find and show given fractions of shapes and sets of counters.

Students select the correct factorisation of algebraic expressions.

Students solve multiplication problems involving negative numbers, finding the biggest and the smallest products.

Students place decimal numbers in the correct order and position on a number line.

Students draw the next shapes in spatial sequential patterns.

Students create three different sequential patterns using 12 squares or triangles.

Students interpret a line graph showing how high a skyrocket travelled over time.

Students demonstrate their understanding of place value by identifying numbers shown in a shape-based number system.

Students factorise algebraic expressions.

Students use substitution into equations to evaluate the number of blocks and total surface areas in shapes of different heights. The stimulus can be used as a challenging task to try and derive the rules from the spatial pattern. This is classified as Patterns and Relationships.
