3 Two teams. Before ashape can be covered the team must say aloud the ratiowritten on the notesThe board needs to be enlarged and photocopied on to A3 team requires 20 counters in one colour. Teachers shouldphotocopy and cut out the appropriate cards for students. The equal parts cards are for the weakest students, though it wouldbe good to mix them with the Ratio easy Ratio Classroom MaterialsPocket Money (worksheets)ObjectivesSolve simple problems involving easier problem solving activity than Saturday sort out the information from the clues in order toanswer the two notesThe Pocket Money Clues should be cut out and placed in Jobs (worksheets)ObjectivesSolve simple problems involving more complex activity than Pocket Money.

Shuffle the cards and place them face down on the table. Each team takes it in turn to turn over a Ratio 4-in-a-line card. Say the Ratio out use a counter to cover up a shape on the board which matches the Ratio on the card. The winning team is the first to make a ine of four, either vertically, horizontally or : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshaded2 : 25 : 103 : 158 : 49 : 32 : 62 : 102 : 46 : 6 Ratio 4-in-a-line Cards( Ratio hard)Ratioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded : unshadedRatioshaded.
