A slight change of wording is a quick win to ask more engaging questions.
Instead of simply asking pupils to "work out" the answer to a problem, try rephrasing the command to a more interesting alternative. Instead of "calculate the following"...​"Which of these have the same answer?"​ Instead of "complete the addition pyramid"​..."how many ways can you make the top brick equal to 20"?​ Instead of "calculate the perimeter"...​"Which piece of string is the longest?"​

I made some guided revision grids for my Year 8s to revise for their summer exam while I was out on a trip. They seemed to go down well, so I might make some more for them! They could be of use in the run up to exams...

End of the Year Mathy Activities
Some activities (I’ve tried and work!) that are mathy but great for moments when you need something non-curricular.

From Hawaii to Michigan, and from Oregon to Massachusetts, we are rallying to #ProtectOurKids.

Billionaire politicians want to destroy public schools—where 90% of kids go. Not on our watch.
