Sharing in a Ratio Four in a Row | 35 Levels and 350 Maths Games | Complete Bundle

Teach, retrieve and consolidate the complete sharing-in-a-ratio progression through an exceptionally flexible collection of Four in a Row maths games.

This complete bundle contains all 35 carefully sequenced levels and all ten versions of every level.

You receive 350 complete games containing 12,600 questions altogether. Every game has a 6 x 6 answer board, a separate numbered question sheet and a complete teacher answer key. The format is simple: pupils select a square, identify the matching question, solve it and try to connect four correct answers. The familiar game structure creates a reason to calculate accurately, compare methods and keep working.

The download contains the ready-to-print game PDF or PDFs, the complete 35-level progression ladder and the built-in teacher answer pages. PDF formatting ensures reliable printing. This is a digital resource; no physical item will be posted.

The mathematical focus is the complete sharing-in-a-ratio progression. Examples range from “Share 84 in the ratio 3:4 and find the larger share” and “A:B:C = 2:5:8, C - A = 42, find B” to linked ratios, fractional ratio parts, changing ratios, algebraic quantities, standard form, surds, geometry and unfamiliar measures. Questions are deliberately varied rather than produced as repetitive clones. Wording, ratio order, requested share, representation and numerical structure change where appropriate, so pupils must read and think. Answers are controlled for game quality: each board provides a broad answer range, limited repetition and no adjacent identical answers.

The wider FIAR ladder is built around discrete skill levels, local consolidation and full cumulative consolidation. Discrete levels isolate a new method while still varying the way it appears. Local consolidation mixes recently connected skills. Full consolidation reaches back across the progression, giving less-secure pupils accessible entry points while confident pupils meet the current ceiling. Advanced levels apply established ratio methods to algebra, standard form, surds, geometry and unfamiliar measures without pretending that a change of context is automatically a new skill.

This makes the resource especially useful for mixed-attainment teaching. Choose the precise level that matches the class, use a consolidation board when pupils need to decide between methods, or let different groups work from different points on the ladder. The included progression ladder explains the focus of all 35 levels and supports quick selection.

Use it for whole-class practice, paired competition, small-group intervention, tutoring, revision, cover, homework follow-up, early finishers or a calm end-of-lesson activity. It works equally well printed in colour or greyscale. Questions and answers are on separate pages, so the teacher retains control and pupils cannot simply copy values from the board.

The teacher key means preparation is minimal and checking is quick.
