What’s included in the Year 5 Understand Negative Numbers Homework resource and why is it useful?

Year 5 Understand Negative Numbers Homework is a worksheet to consolidate this step after it has been taught, at home or in class. The content includes two varied fluency questions, one problem solving question and a full answer sheet, covering understanding negative numbers in context using thermometers, a sea level scale and a lift keypad.

Expected

• Q1 using clues about freezing and boiling points to colour four thermometers with negative and positive temperatures.
• Q2 using a scale with sea level at 0 m to find approximate heights above and depths below sea level.
• Q3 using a building’s lift keypad to decide whether three statements about floors below and above ground are correct, and explaining why.
