A collaboration of some mapping programs suitable for KS3 differention credit to dannytheref (one of the powerpoints) and mrbarton maths (for the excel file) tweaks have been made to the powerpoints to include answers and tasks the excel file is a great way to finish the topic off

tweeked version of the resource first put up by Holyhead. Changed the definitions to make it more suitable to my pupils . An activity for that short but vital task of sorting out the difference between these 4 types of algebraic notation. Firstly a MATCH-UP activity (the preview does not indicate the matches!) of the definitions for each of the 4, then a sorting and grouping activity with examples of each. Lastly, something to do with each type - substituting, solving, identifying and proving. Answers provided Also plenary/starter activity for AFL ppt on identifying correctly
