A few years ago I wrote a set of notes for pupils and put them on my website. The notes were supposed to be written in a “pupil-friendly” way, and different to notes students might find in textbooks or elsewhere on the internet. I have converted the notes to PowerPoint slides so you can download them, adapt them if needed, use them in revision lessons or perhaps give your students a set to take home with them to help them prepare for exams. The chances are there will be a few mistakes here and there, so if you spot any please email me & I will correct them. Hope they are of use!

This PowerPoint is suitable as a lesson and is an interesting and engaging way to practice 'like terms' in algebra. Magic squares are squares in which each column and row adds up to the same number or &'expression&';. A nice lesson to practice the concept of collecting like terms for KS3 and KS4 students.
