Reading scales and solving problems
A KS2 numeracy worksheet created by an educator to help your child practise reading scales and solving problems.
Calculating perimeters
A Year 5 and 6 printable worksheet created by an experienced teacher to help your child practise calculating perimeters.
To find the perimeter of a shape you must add up the lengths of each of the sides. Can your child calculate the perimeters of these common shapes?
To find the perimeter of a shape you must add up the lengths of each of the sides. Can your child calculate the perimeters of these common shapes?
Calculating volume
Volume is the amount of 3D space that an object occupies. Volume can be measured in cubes. Calculate the number of cubes in each shape to work out the volume.
Estimate volume
Look at these containers. Which do you think has the greatest volume? (Think about their real-life size by considering what is inside.) Put them in order from smallest to largest volume. Estimate the volume in cm3, then calculate the volume to see how accurate you were.
Division using chunking practice
Chunking uses multiplication to help us divide. It involves taking away chunks of the same size from the number (repeated subtraction) until we run out. Can you use chunking to solve these division problems?
Using the short multiplication method
Can you use the short multiplication method to solve these problems?
Using the short division method
One of the quickest ways to divide numbers is to use the short division method. Can you use this method to solve these problems?
Using the long multiplication method
In long multiplication we multiply the top number by the bottom number (units first and then tens and then hundreds and so on). Can you use this method to solve these problems?
Using decimal notation for tenths and hundredths
When starting to think about decimals, it is useful to imagine a square divided into 100 equally sized squares. Look at the following diagrams. Can you write the decimal they are representing underneath each one?
Using decimal notation for measurement
Look at each of the measurements in the left-hand column. For each one, write its decimal representation.
The long multiplication method
One of the quickest ways to multiply two two-digit numbers is to use the long multiplication method. Can you use this method to solve these problems?
Solving word problems with short division
Work out these problems using the short division method.
Short multiplication with missing digits
Can you work out which numbers should go in the gaps by using the short multiplication method?
Short multiplication practice
Here's a reminder of how to to multiply numbers using the short multiplication method. Can you use this method to solve these sums?
Short division with remainders
Sometimes when we divide we are left with a remainder. Can you use the short division method for these calculations? Remember, you will get a remainder for each one.
Short division practice
Look through this step-by-step reminder of how to use the short division method and then see if you can answer these questions.
Positioning hundredths on a number line
Each of the following number lines go up in hundredths (so each division = 1/100 or 0.01). Look at the following number lines. Write the decimal numbers that the arrows are pointing to in the boxes.
Positioning decimals on a number line: tenths
These number lines are going up in tenths. Can you add in all the missing decimals on these number lines?
Positioning decimals on a number line: hundredths
Each of the following number lines go up in hundredths (so each division = 1/100 or 0.01). Write these decimals in the correct places on this number line.
Ordering decimals by relating them to money
When ordering decimals it can really help to imagine them as pounds and pence. Look at these sets of decimals. Can you order them from smallest to largest?
Long multiplication word problems: multiplying four-digit and two-digit numbers
Work out the answers to these problems by using the long multiplication method. Remember to set out your working neatly and line the digits up carefully so that you don’t get muddled.
Long multiplication practice
Can you use the long multiplication method to solve these problems?
Fraction and decimal equivalents
We can write the same number as a fraction or as a decimal. Look at all the fractions in the left-hand column and write their decimal equivalents, then do the same for the fractions in the right-hand column.
