Mathematical challenges for able pupils in key stages 1 and 2
For all year groups the optional termly planning grids leave a week unallocated each term. This 'extra' week can be used in different ways. Some pupils may need to consolidate and develop a previous piece of work. Able pupils could, after an introduction by you, do a sustained piece of extension work. This might involve some research and investigation, and could be linked to the main teaching programme for the class or could be a new topic. It could draw on subjects other than mathematics. As an example, the work on palindromic numbers might be suitable for Year 4 pupils.
