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?
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.
Subtracting negative numbers can seem tricky, but there are rules to follow to make things more straightforward. Remembering these rules will help you to calculate answers without using a number line. Look at the rules then try applying them to these calculations.
When we are measuring temperatures we often use negative numbers. Complete this activity using a thermometer to help subtract (or find the difference between) a pair of negative numbers or a positive number and negative number.
Can you fill in the missing numbers to make each puzzle correct? Take care with the negative numbers!

Bar models can help us visualise a problem and work out what operation we need to use to find a missing number. The key to bar models is to label the model with the information you know and the number you are trying to find (which is normally shown with a question mark). Can you use bar models to answer these questions?
In algebra we use letters to represent numbers that we don’t know the value of. A string of numbers and letters joined together by mathematical operations such as + and - is called an algebraic expression. Try the following algebra problems.
Lucy wants to make a lovely new lawn. She has to work to a budget and has £220 to spend on turf. Can she have any lawn shape she wants? Work out if she has enough money to buy turf for each of the plans shown below!
When you first learn to find the area of a shape you do it by counting squares. You then learn that you can use formulae to quickly and accurately find the areas of some shapes. Can you remember the formulae and use them reliably? Now find the perimeter and area of all the shapes below (not drawn to scale). Remember to use the correct units of measurement (cm or cm2).
How good are you at tricky area and perimeter questions? Have a go at these calculations.
If you know that 28 x 16 = 448 you can quickly find the answers to lots of similar calculations. Draw a line from each calculation to the correct answer.
Do you know what BODMAS stands for? BODMAS tells us the order we need to complete operations in. If there is a bracket work out the result of the operation inside it first then do division then multiplication and finally do any addition and subtraction. Put your knowledge of BODMAS into practice by having a go at these calculations.
