Year 4 Addition & Subtraction - Problem-Solving Investigations
These in-depth maths investigations are open-ended problem solving activities for Year 4 children.
In-depth Investigation: Make 100
Given a pattern of four one-digit numbers, children attempt to make a total of exactly 100.
In-depth Investigation: Total £10
Using only digits 1-9 without the ‘5’, children find all possible pairs of amounts to make £10.
In-depth Investigation: Cats and Dogs
Children work to solve a puzzle involving adding two 3-digit numbers. They find several possible solutions, and then invent their own puzzle.
In-depth Investigation: Hole-y Subtractions
Children create 3-digit palindromic numbers with a ‘hole’ (i.e. a zero) in the middle. They subtract 3-digit numbers with equal numbers of 1s, 10s and 100s and identify patterns in their answers.
In-depth Investigation: Present Prices
Children use logic and addition, along with some trial and improvement to solve a problem involving money.
In-depth Investigation: Wonderful 1089!
Children add two 3-digit numbers and subtract a pair of 3-digit numbers to find patterns. They use mathematical reasoning to begin to explain what they find.
In-depth Investigation: Mobile Subtractions
Children select 3 contiguous numbers from a mobile phone display and create a subtraction.
In-depth Investigation: Subtraction Trios
Children look for patterns in answers when subtracting 3-digit numbers from 4-digit numbers with consecutive digits.
In-depth Investigation: Prime Addition Squares
Children add sets of three 3-digit numbers to find patterns in a magic square based on prime numbers.
These investigations will develop maths meta-skills, support open-ended questioning and logical reasoning, and enable children to learn to think mathematically and articulate mathematical ideas.
These problem-solving investigations come from our Year 4 Maths Blocks. Each Hamilton maths block contains a complete set of planning and resources to teach a term’s worth of objectives for one of the National Curriculum for England’s maths areas.

Year 3 Place Value - Problem-Solving Investigations
These in-depth maths investigations are open-ended problem solving activities for Year 3 children.
In-depth Investigation 1: Three Coins
Using exactly three coins, children work out how many amounts can be made between £1 and £2.
In-depth Investigation 2: Money Bags
Children use their knowledge of counting in 10s to solve a problem involving money.
In-depth Investigation: Counter Place Value
Children place counters on a place value grid to make 3-digit numbers and then use logic to ensure they have made all the combinations.
In-depth Investigation: Lost Logic
Children use their knowledge of inverse operations to solve a logic problem.
In-depth Investigation: Guess my Number
Children use their knowledge of 3-digit numbers, rounding, and properties of numbers to work out a mystery number.
These investigations will develop maths meta-skills, support open-ended questioning and logical reasoning, and enable children to learn to think mathematically and articulate mathematical ideas.

Year 5 Multiplication & Division - Problem-Solving Investigations
These in-depth maths investigations are open-ended problem solving activities for Year 5 children.
In-depth Investigation: Prime Differences
Children find out if prime numbers become less frequent as we consider sets of larger numbers.
In-depth Investigation: Excellent Eights
Children explore patterns when multiplying numbers with consecutive digits by 8.
The PowerPoint can be used to guide your class through this investigation.
In-depth Investigation: LCM Squares
Children use trial and improvement to find the smallest possible total on a square of lowest common multiples.
In-depth Investigation: Division Remainder Patterns
Children look at patterns of remainders in 4-digit numbers when dividing by numbers 3 to 6. Can they establish a rule?
In-depth Investigation: What an Odd Thing!
Children create a triangle of odd numbers and identify patterns when rows are summed or their end numbers are averaged.
In-depth Investigation: Remainder Runners
Children divide 1234, 2345, 3456 by 3, 4, 5 … 12 and look for patterns in the remainders.
In-depth Investigation: Reverse Digits, Same Product
Children find the product of a pair of 2-digit numbers then reverse the digits of both numbers and find an identical product.
These investigations will develop maths meta-skills, support open-ended questioning and logical reasoning, and enable children to learn to think mathematically and articulate mathematical ideas.

Year 1 Fiction 3: Stories with repeating patterns and counting stories
Read a story with repeating patterns, Bringing the Rain to Kapiti Plain, by Verna Aardema. Retell the story using flow charts, write describing words and punctuate sentences. Read two counting stories Handa’s Hen by Eileen Browne and We All Went on Safari by Laurie Krebs, before guiding children to write their own. The Hamilton Group Reader, Boris and Sid go on a tram, is used to develop confidence in reading aloud.
