Class Control Volume Meter Display Poster Classroom Management

(1)
Indicates to your learners which of the five levels of noise are approriate within the classroom for each activity. Print out and laminate or display on your projection screen. What you are getting is the idea of the volume meter (which isn't mine - thanks to MrPhillips for that), the content of the text, i.e. the five descriptions of the activity and my idea to use the dB meter (which I drew myself). MS PowerPoint and PDF copy included. Please note that included PPT & PDF do not have the pictures for groups on (i.e. the 3D men) as seen on the thumbnail cover image. I didn't have the rights for those pictures, but you can easily find some to add in yourself. Search for "3D men Group", etc. If you like this then do check out my many other (mainly Maths) activities listed on my TES Resources shop and pages including many Premium resources which will save you lots of time and give you some useful ideas.

Divisibility By Three Worksheet

Divisibility By Three Worksheet

(1)
Worksheet with about 40 questions on whether numbers are divisible by three or not Answer sheet included Instead of them writign on the worksheet you could get them to write questions in their books. I've included a copy of the top of the WS on a template for 2 x 4 labels - Pupils stick one of these in instead of copying out the top of the workheet. They then attempt as many questions as they can from the worksheet in the time you give them. Advantage of this is that you don't end up with half finshed exercise sheets glued in their books.

Quadrilaterals Rhombus Parallelogram Shape Identification Drawing Coordinates Exercise

(1)
There is always a confusion between quadrilaterals such as Parallelograms, Squares and Rhombuses. When drawn on grid paper they can get mixed up. Hence this activity. I've collected all the resources I've used for this so there is a good mix and you will be able to use/adapt most of this for your classes. Enjoy I've also added PDF versions of the SMART files (November 2016) If you like this then check out my many other activities listed on my TES Resources Shop (Stewsterthebear) which includes many free and Premium resources which will save you lots of time and give you some useful ideas. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/Stewsterthebear If you find this resource useful then please do leave a constructive review so that others can benefit from your experience.

Probability Calculating 1/n Equally likely outcomes Domino Loop Cards Game Activity and Worksheets

(0)
Here are two sets of domino loop cards. You can use them for starters and then back them up with the matching worksheet or use as a plenary and then use the matching worksheet as the next days starter. You print them onto A4 card and cut them out. Then shuffle and give a set to your students. They have to rearrange the cards into a line order by matching the question to the answer. They are all questions like "The probability of getting a six on a fair die is..." The first set has 22 cards and the second (which is longer to complete and the questions are harder as well) has 34 questions. Afterwards (I like to get something into the student exercise books) there are matching worksheets where some of the questions have to be reworked out and written onto the sheets before the sheet is stuck in. There are two versions of each worksheet (One has more answers to put in so you can give to your quicker students). All in you are getting two sets of domino cards, each with two matching worksheets. Solutions to the domino cards and the worksheets are included! You could easily modify each of these card sets and WS to reduce the questions down to less for your lower/slower students. If you like and find it useful then please leave a positive review. Thank you.

Angle Classification Type Bingo Obtuse Acute Reflex Straight Full Right Fun Game

(0)
Here is a fun differentiated engaging Bingo game where students are tested on whether they know their angle types such as no turn, acute angle, right angle, obtuse angle, straight angle, reflex angle and full turn. Students can choose their own nine numbers or the teacher can give out any of seventy-two randomised bingo cards. There are four sizes of bingo card depending on your preference and photocopy budget. Edit: After playing it in class it is better with 12 numbers per game if using the generated Bingo cards. They are now included as well - there’s 126 unique cards which make for a lot of games. These are laid out to print on to A4 sheets of 3x7=21 labels The slides provide six games of 24 angles (which is enough to provide a winner): The first three games support learners by specifically describing the angle type. The fourth game only provides the angle type and a generic description The fifth & sixth game (hardest) only provides the angle type.

Square Numbers. Understand and be able to use the associated language. Maze Fun Activity End of Term

(0)
A bundle of worksheets for mastering the language and knowledge of squaring and square numbers...Then....a bonus of a maze worksheet where students have to find their way through a maze using a path of only square numbers. This is a top quality way to engage and amuse the students - particularly in afternoon lessons or at the end of the term. Once they have got the idea with the smaller maze they can attempt the bigger one - this will keep them busy for hours! (well most of the lesson with any luck).

Tony cycled 3 kilometres to town. He walked 200 metres along the street to a burger bar. He ordered a 250 gram burger and a 330 millilitres can of cola. The burger was excellent, it was 2.5 centimetres thick. You read the students a story like above and then they write their own. It's very creative and makes great displays. Insist that use the specified measures. There's loads of different versions of theis worksheet from all the different times I've used it. Pcik the one which suits your learners best.

If you want to run a school playing card club then it helps if you have the rules for different games ready for the children. I've copied these off the web but they are presented in a easy A4 format. Also I've adapted the rules to be understandable by children. Hence it's actually been quite a lot of work. Enjoy

Substitution into algebraic expressions Follow Me Loop Domino Cards Class set

Set of cards for sharing out to the whole class. They work out the answers for their cards. You show the PowerPoint which gives the prompts and the students have to hand back their cards as theirs come up. Pretty simple but the kids love it. It wouldn't take much to edit the cards docx to turn it into a back up worksheet so that something can be put into their book.

Three versions depending on whether you have a colour printer or not (I use the school colour printer to print the aliens onto the stickers and then bring them home and as and when I think of the questions I B&W print the questions on. If you have a colour laser then just print direct on the the "Colour" sticker. Also included a set of Exit Tickets for a lesson.

Sixty Four files. You'll need to do a little work in choosing what you need but the basic idea is you set up a circus of probability investigations which the students move around and attempt in small groups. Each activity is designed to illustrate a particular concept. It's a lot of fun - I've used it many times but it's all a bit jumbled here. However it wouldn't take long to pick out what you need. Use the file "Each Task" to get what the activities are and then build it up from there. It's a great lesson to use if you want to have the students doing and investigating - particularly good for observations. I've thrown in a load of misc. Probability resources . Enjoy

The key resource here is the "MyDetailedSolvingEquationsHS Update 2016" which is 33 worked examples of solving equations from 2x = 4 up to 3x + 4 = 2(x-3). It's presented as two sheets of A5 and can be stuck into the pupil exercise books as a reference. It's really good and many classes have found it useful. Everything else included in the bundle is similar worksheets which you can have a look at and I'm sure you will be able to adapt or use as they are.

The rabbits WS asks some questions like if there are 2x rabbits today and x leave the burrow how many are left. etc. The Mini Questions are a simple starter for students to put into algebra some simple expressions. The PPT can be used to show the possible answers for them to choose from if you need it. The starter.docx is a simple starter to get them thinking about different expressions. The PPTx is the answers. Explain These PPTx is a great starter to check understanding of different similar expressions like 4x and x^4. My AlgebraicExpressions is a nice intro resource for expressions. I used this by showing each slide one by one and getting the class to all write what they think the solutions are on their whiteboards. After playing this the worksheet is used to back it up into their exercise books.
