About this resource

Spotlight Sheets: focused practice, one question type at a time Within a single small step, pupils often meet a range of question types. For many children this provides valuable challenge. For others, moving between question types can make it harder to secure the underlying concept. Spotlight Sheets address this by isolating one question type at a time. Pupils can practise it with focus, develop fluency and build confidence before moving on to mixed questions. They are well suited to targeted intervention, same-day catch-up, or any pupil who benefits from a more focused approach. Differentiated in three ways Sheet 1: Supported: Every number is labelled. Pupils make both numbers with base 10 before choosing the phrase. Sheet 2: Core: Pupils circle the numbers on the number line, then choose the phrase. Sheet 3: Extended: The ends of the number line are clues. Pupils label the numbers, then compare them in two ways. Please note: Master the Curriculum is an independent resource provider.

This pack is print and go. Our catalogue does not list an editable copy of it, so none is offered here rather than promising a file nobody has opened. Page counts are not printed either, because we do not publish them and a guessed number is worse than none.
