A series of four worksheets to progressively introduce pupils to the idea of adding and subtracting fractions by matching the denominators. Rather than just presenting it to them as a rule, they work through simple examples to gain an understanding of what is happening. I wrote this out of frustration with a poor class who simply didn't seem to understand how fractions worked, and although they could memorise a method, would then misapply it (for example, trying to add three fractions with them was a disaster, until they actually understood what they were doing)

A series of pictures of the same school (Mearns Castle in Scotland) taken from further and further away. For each picture pupils have to work out which is the correct scale.

A collection of typical Proof By Inductions, around 100 in total. Very useful as a teacher if you are looking for examples to use. Includes all the main categories plus a few unusual ones. They are grouped by category: Divisibility, Greater Than, Summation, Recurrence Relationships, Matrices, Calculus, Fibonacci, Miscellaneous, Geometry, Important Theorems, Extensions and Paradoxes Includes sources for even more example proofs.
