Let's Calculate
This Year 5 Maths scheme of work will give your class the chance to consolidate their understanding of the four operations and help them to use each different operation in a variety of appropriate contexts. With a mixture of written calculations, number problems, and single and multi-step word problems, children will have plenty of opportunities to select the correct operation to solve a given problem and understand how to express their working out in a single calculation with brackets.
With five easy-to-follow lesson plans, slideshows for the teaching inputs, differentiated activity ideas and a range of printable activities, these 'Let's Calculate' lessons provide everything you need to deliver a full week of Maths teaching to make your class feel confident in solving a varity of calculations.
Using Brackets
In this first lesson, children will start to explore the function of brackets in a calculation and start to solve calculations involving one set of brackets. They will be encouraged to solve such problems mentally whenever they can. They will also read and understand a two-step word problem, expressing the problem as a single calculation involving brackets. There is also the opportunity to see how many different ways they can find to find the answer to a calculation where the answer is given.
What's included:
- Lesson plan
- Slides
- Activity ideas
- Differentiated domino cards
- Differentiated challenge cards
The Equals Sign
During this lesson, children will explore the meaning of the equals sign and investigate different ways of solving an equation so that it is correct, such as 35 ÷ 5 = 32 - 2 or 35 ÷ 5 = (40 + 9) ÷ 7. They will also solve missing number problems in equations. Children are encouraged to solve calculations using all four operations, brackets and square numbers.
What's included:
- Lesson plan
- Slides
- Activity ideas
- Differentiated challenge cards
- Calculation cards
Scaling by Simple Fractions
This lesson will help your class to solve problems that involve scaling by simple fractions, e.g. finding half more or a quarter less than a given amount. They are challenged to do this through word problems as well as straightforward calculations in a game situation that will encourage them to solve problems mentally.
What's included:
- Lesson plan
- Slides
- Activity ideas
- Differentiated worksheets
- Game boards
- Game cards
- Instruction card
Single-Step Problems
This lesson challenges your class to solve a variety of word problems that will require them to really understand what the question is asking them and which of the four operations they will need to use in order to find the answer. They can also solve written problems that will require them to know and understand key vocabulary associated with all four operations.
What's included:
- Lesson plan
- Slides
- Activity ideas
- Differentiated worksheets
- Differentiated word problem cards
- Help card
Multi-Step Problems
The final lesson in this series gives your class the chance to try some more challenging two-step or multi-step problems involving all four operations. They will be asked to express the working out they need to do for each problem in a single calculation involving brackets. This is a great lesson for assessing how well your children can understand, interpret and solve multi-step word problems. There are also some tricky number riddles to solve!
