A selection of questions (with full solutions) each asking 'how many ways' can something happen.
Begins with simple problems that are small enough that they can be done without any special technique, then problems that require the 'multiplication principle' then on to permutations and combinations.
A game to revise simple integration.
Each catchphrase picture is hidden behind nine expressions.
Randomly select a pupil, and if they can integrate their chosen expression they get 10 seconds to guess at the picture hidden below.
Is every square a rectangle? Is every rectangle a square?
An investigation into the properties of the quadrilaterals, working out their properties and which ones are similar.
Includes a look into Venn Diagrams and a couple of area challenges at the end.
Notes and answers at the bottom of each slide.
Seven christmas themed questions on the following topics:
adding fractions, angles in triangles, dividing with fractions, substitution, negative numbers
A chance for pupils to have fun with some numeracy and make a Power Point presentation researching how they would spend £1000.
Includes an example (by me) and some results from a class of 15 year olds.

This is a thought provoking activity about how many variables are needed to describe a shape.
For example, if you don’t care about size, rotation or position all squares are the same.
To define size, one variable is needed.
To define rotation, one variable is needed.
To define position in the 2D plane, two variables are needed.
So to fully define any square requires four variables.
There are many possible different choices for these four.

A treasure hunt to revise Fractions, Decimals and Percentages.
Print out the A4 clues and put them on the walls. Pupils can work in pairs and start anywhere. They solve any clue (e.g. 30% of 90) then find the clue with that answer on it and carry on from there.
Answers provided.
