Order of Operations with Whole Numbers
Students will learn and apply the order of operations to solve multi-step arithmetic problems involving whole numbers.
Key Questions
- What does BODMAS mean, and in what order do you carry out the operations?
- How do brackets change the answer when you calculate a number sentence?
- Can you work out the value of a number sentence with mixed operations and explain each step?

Planning templates for Mathematics
5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
