Square numbers and cube numbers are easy to muddle up when taught in isolation — bundling both real lessons together lets students see them side by side. This square numbers and cube numbers bundle combines two complete Year 5 lessons in one purchase.

The bundle includes a full lesson on identifying square numbers with multiplication patterns, and a separate full lesson on cube numbers with 3D models — two genuinely different lessons, not one topic split in two.

Mastering Square Numbers and Cube Numbers in Year 5 Maths

This resource covers the Year 5 National Curriculum requirement to recognise and use square numbers and cube numbers, including the correct index notation for each, across two complete interactive lessons.

What’s Included

  • Introduction to Square Numbers — full interactive lesson
  • Cube Numbers — full interactive lesson with 3D models

Key Benefits for Students
