1000s of arithmetic questions for year 4 at your fingertips! The resource has 10 individual arithmetic workouts that can be randomised to give you an unlimited number of combinations. This means it can be used over and over again throughout the year. A great way of getting pupils to practise their arithmetic skills and aid with retention.
Each test also generates an answer sheet for easy marking or (preferably) self-assessment. This is a must have resource that begins to prepare pupils for the KS2 arithmetic test and a massive time saver…

This isn’t just one phonics screening check, or two…or three. This resource draws on a bank of over 1000 (editable) words to randomly generate 1000s of checks at just the push of a button. Answer sheets and pupil cards are randomly generated and then all you have to do is print and go!
For each check, 40 words are generated (20 real words and 20 pseudo words) in line with the national checks and should be carried out in exactly the same way using the corresponding pupil cards.
Also included is a colour coded tracking sheet to easily track pupils across the academic year. Enter names, enter scores and the spreadsheet will do the rest and calculate a class average,
These resources are great to prepare pupils for the phonics screening check and to track pupils progress throughout the year.

Lesson 1 involves the children identifying whether a line of symmetry is correct or incorrect and then challenged by drawing in the correct or missing lines.
Lesson 2 involves the children drawing all of the lines of symmetry on to 2D shapes including complex polygons as well as regular shapes. Extension activity involves the children investigating symmetry in the alphabet.
Lesson 3 involves the children identifying and drawing lines of symmetry into patterns/designs. The challenge activity: identifying a reflected pattern.
Lesson 4 involves the children completing symmetrical figures by reflecting across a mirror-line. The challenge activity: Complete a symmetrical figure on various different types of grids and questions for deeper understanding.
Lesson 5 involves the children completing symmetrical patterns by reflecting across a mirror-line. The challenge activity: Questions to encourage deeper thinking - solving symmetry problems.
ALSO INCLUDED: Two mini-assessments for the two learning objectives.
Objectives covered in unit of work:
Identify lines of symmetry in 2-D shapes presented in different orientations
