Maths

A "Dodgy Data!" starter teaches pupils to spot misleading graphs. Groups then choose a genuine question, collect data via tally charts, create accurate graphs, write 3 conclusions, and deliver a 2-minute "Data Detective Report

A "Would You Rather?" starter explores the relationship between area and perimeter. Pupils design a bedroom to scale, fit furniture within their floor area budget, calculate costs (carpet per m², skirting per metre), and deliver a 30-second estate agent pitch.

A "Price is Wrong!" starter leads into a multi-round shop simulation where pupils rotate as shopkeeper, customer and accountant. Rounds progress from simple change to 10% sale calculations and exact-budget challenges.

Pupils identify struggles and suggest adaptations for a scenario card character with dyscalculia, then plan their Maths Buddy poster.
