What's included in the Compare and Order Any Integers Varied Fluency resource and why is it useful?

Year 6 Compare and Order Any Integers Varied Fluency is a set of worksheets during the Try it/You do section of your maths lesson. Each set has been carefully designed to help you meet each child where they are at to ensure progress for every child, not just the average child. The content includes a knowledge organiser for Compare and Order Any Integers and 4 levelled worksheets covering ordering and comparing any integer up to 10,000,000 and determining the value of each digit.

Knowledge Organiser

• Designed to support all children via key information and examples.

Scaffolded Examples

• Guided practice comparing integers using place value and comparing integers in different forms.

Support

• Q1: Compare integers using <, > or =. Numbers have different number of digits or include different digits; place value chart provided for support.

• Q2: Compare an integer in numerals with one in words or as an addition.

• Q3: Order three integers. Not all numbers have same amount of digits.

Core

• Q1: Compare integers using <, > or =. Numbers have different number of digits or include different digits.

• Q2: Compare numerals with words and additions. Placeholders must be carefully considered.

• Q3: Order three seven-digit integers. One number has a different start digit.

Stretch

• Q1: Compare integers using <, > or =. Numbers use same digits in different orders.

• Q2: Compare numerals with words and three-part additions. Placeholders must be carefully considered.

• Q3: Order three seven-digit integers. All numbers use same digits in different orders.

How do our varied fluency resources work?

Our varied fluency resources are not just about differentiation, but differentiation in an adaptive way. They work best alongside our teaching PowerPoints, which walk you through the whole lesson along with other lesson resources that you can find on our Compare and Order Any Integers lesson page.

• After completing the main teaching of the Teaching PowerPoint (PPT), teachers assess whether children are ready to access their Varied Fluency worksheet or require support from the Scaffolded Examples sheet, based on how they have performed during the Model it (I do) / Practise it (We do) / Try it (You do) sequence.

• If any children need additional support, they can use the Scaffolded Examples sheet. This gives children the opportunity to secure key skills required for the Varied Fluency worksheet before they move on to it. The Scaffolded Examples sheet is designed to be completed as a group with a classroom adult.

• If children do not need the Scaffolded Examples, they can progress straight to a Varied Fluency worksheet suited to their level of understanding.

• Most children will use the Core sheet for their Varied Fluency practice.

• Some children may need the Support sheet. This is designed to be used after the Scaffolded Examples sheet, but some children might access this sheet without having used that scaffold.

• Some children may need additional challenge; the Stretch sheet will deepen their understanding of the core content.

Adaptive Maths Resources are not a separate lower-attainment route. They provide temporary and responsive support to help pupils access the same intended learning.
