Context: Construction Carpentry Plumbing, Painting Decorating & DIY
Level: L1, L2
Resource type: Investigation or project, Worksheet or assignment
A scaffolded investigation created for my Level 1 numeracy group but ideal for, and fully mapped to, L1-2 Functional maths.
Part 1 involves reading a description of a room and drawing simple scale diagrams (a grid is provided) before pricing up a carpet from a discount company.
Part 2 is more complex: calculate the length of skirting board, wallpaper, paint, dado rail and door framing required.

Resource type: Interactive presentation
Level: L1, L2
Powerpoint presentation introducing area, perimeter and volume for L1-L2 Functional Skills (maths) learners. Covers rectangles, compound shapes and circles.

Context: Gardening & Horticulture, Painting Decorating & DIY
Level: L1
Resource type: Worksheet or assignment
Work out the cost of carpeting a flat (compound shapes) and seeding and fencing a rectangular lawn.
The step by step problem solving approach also makes this ideal for underpinning L1 Functional Maths – although the scaffolded worksheet on page 2 can be removed for confident students or for assessment purposes.

Resource type: Interactive whiteboard
Level: L1, L2
Lovely introduction to perimeter, area and volume. The learner can move squares and 3D blocks around to see how area and volume relate to physical squares / cubes.
Please note you must have the ActivInspire interactive whiteboard software installed on your computer in order to open, view and use the flipchart resource.

Resource type: Revision material, Worksheet or assignment
Level: L1
A super, 32 page booklet created to provide busy tutors with a convenient workbook. Learners can either work through from beginning to end or pick out certain elements to focus on curriculum areas.
A workbook that covers the adult numeracy curriculum elements of number, shape and space and handling data.
It covers (and is fully mapped to) almost every Level 1 Adult numeracy curriculum element. It is also useful for underpinning many Level 1 Functional Maths coverage and range statements.

Level: L1, L2
Resource type: Worksheet or assignment
Draw a scale diagram of a room and then see if you can fit all the furniture in. Two identical sheets are provided – the only difference is the way the scale is expressed. Also includes perimeter and area questions. Fully mapped to L1-2 Functional Maths and adult numeracy.

Resource type: Hands-on / practical activity, Worksheet or assignment
Level: E2, E3, L1, L2
Graduated activity for E2-L2 mixed ability groups. Involves recognising and sketching and drawing nets; constructing a chosen 3D shape; and (for L1 -2 only) calculating volume and surface area. With detailed adult numeracy and Functional Maths mapping information.
The tutor will need some pre-prepared nets – suggested web links are included.

Free tags: St George's Day
Level: L1, L2
Resource type: Interactive presentation
Three fabulous PPTs – great for St George’s day but could be used year round.
The full length one (22 slides) was written for a 2.5 hour observed session and has in-depth coverage of multiplying decimals; area of rectangles, triangles, circles and compound shapes; substitution; and a general warm-up quiz.
There are alternative shortened versions (some activities are slightly different too) for a 1 hr L1 lesson (area of rectangles) and a 1.5 hr L1-2 Lesson (no triangles).
