I have been a teacher for over 20 years - all the stuff I upload has been tried and tested in my classroom. I don't mind a discussion on Twitter too where I also share new resources. I now have a personal website: https://andylutwyche.com/

Which Phone Tariff? - Algebra KS3 /GCSE

(2)
KS3/ GCSE algebra relating to everyday examples. I wrote this a while ago in a desperate bid to make algebra relate to the real lives of children. You could set up a spreadsheet in Excel and use formulas, or they can do the activity in class.

Twitter Usage Calculations

I saw a picture on Twitter showing what happens in a minute on the social networking site (lots of my students use it too). I therefore came up with this activity. I'm sure you could make more questions based upon the statistics given.

Sequence Match-Up

(2)
This is a second attempt to upload these as there was a problem with the first (no idea what and not of my doing!) and I have tried converting to PDF to negate any issues. Anyway, there are two sets of arithmetic to match with their nth terms, plus two nth terms that don't match for students to generate themselves.

Monaco Lap - Speed-Time Graph

(2)
Using a pole position lap from Nico Rosberg in 2014 can the class firstly sketch a speed-time graph and then draw it using some speeds and times from the lap itself. I have included links to the video and embedded the video into the Powerpoint (I couldn't get a good enough copy for Notebook).

Ratio and MP3 Players - KS3 Worksheets

(2)
In these worksheets the various questions use how many songs you can get onto an MP3 player (1Gb = 250 songs) to look at ratio. Leads onto other questions involving fractions and percentages.

Crack The Safe - Probability

(2)
Four sets of “Crack The Safe” worksheets that get increasingly difficult regarding probability. These allow students to self-check rather than rely on the teacher as possible solutions are given, but more than required to prevent guessing. These work nicely as starters or plenaries for me.

Solving Quadratics Codebreaker 3

(4)
Another joke whose punchline is revealed upon doing a load of maths. This is designed as a plenary/starter. Numbers 1 and 2 in the "Solving Quadratics" series are uploaded from months ago. Error corrected this time I hope!
