STOP THE PRESSES!! I’ve updated this post to include a set of Top Trumps for division too! I thought I’d share these … and I know its a very simple topic for secondary (and the resources are equally suited to primary) but for some of my students – especially at KS3 – I like to get them to practise their times tables … Read more
Well! It looks like Summer is here, so I’m trying to enjoy it while it lasts! This week gone in a whirl, so in my usual fashion here’s my week in bullet points: HAPPY = Results are out and we have already SMASHED FFT D targets. Yes we’ve beaten them by a long way and still have … Read more

Two things have come together this week that have sort of morphed into a nice little revision activity. I’ve been working on exam questions by topics and this developed into producing them with written answers on too … the ones for two way tables are here (Exam Qs and with solutions) .
