This will introduce the topics of 3D volume and surface area, and also provide some challenging extension questions.
A set of four worksheets on
- Basic Skills (rounding, 2D perimeter and area, 3D volume and surface area)
- Problems (real life problems involving volume and surface area of cuboids, cylinders, cones and spheres)
- Units (converting between e.g. square metres and square centimetres)
- Extensions to the Problems (revisiting the problems with converting units and more in-depth calculations)
All provided with solutions.
This is a series of simple questions to give pupils practice in estimating a variety of different units in real life circumstances. The questions are straightforward but should produce a good basis of discussion.
There is estimation in a variety of units and also some measuring.
Full solutions included.
A series of four worksheets to give some background algebra, do plenty of examples finding a limit, then for advanced pupils go on to find a general formula for a linear sequence.
If you follow this through you will be able to instantly work out the value of the 50th term of u_n+1 = 0.4 u_n +3 (for example).
The four worksheets are:
- Indices (practice on this)
- Algebra (rearranging formula)
- Sequences (standard questions on finding limits, and graphing the results)
- Investigation (putting it all together to get a general formula)
All provided with full solutions.
This is a series of worksheets testing a range of algebra skills. This is the rough order of increasing difficulty:
Simplify and Brackets
- Simplify 2t + 5t
- Simplify 2(x+3) – 4
Substitution
- If a = 3 and b = 2 find 3a – b
Inequalities
- Find the set of dice rolls where x > 3 and x
Consecutive numbers
- Find two consecutive numbers that add up to eleven
Full solutions included.
A series of worksheets covering all aspect of rounding.
- money, rounding to the nearest dollar/kilogram/penny
- rounding to the nearest 10,100,1000
- using rounding to approximate answers
- using rounding to approximate on more difficult problems
Full solutions provided to worksheets.
This is an investigation into the different uses of stones and pounds (UK), pounds (USA) and kilograms (Europe) for weighing people. By the end pupils should be able to convert between the units effectively.
Skills used:
- Mental arithmetic
- Converting between units
- Rounding (the conversion numbers are approximate only)
Full solutions provided on the Power Points.
A set of worksheets building up to an investigation about the time it takes for an object to drop that can be done in the classroom to practice the skills learned.
The sections are:
- Basic Skills (factorising, simplifying fractions, solving equations)
- Questions (rearranging linear formulas, quadratic formulas, and more difficult formulas too)
- Investigation (how long it takes a ball to drop, using a formula and testing it)
All provided with full solutions

A problem solving project where pupils use Pythagoras to find how far away the horizon is, depending on your height about sea level.
This is an open-ended project, where rather than being given all the information up front the pupils have to work in groups to explore the problem, then reflect on what techniques were effective.
It practices several useful skills such as Pythagoras, circle geometry, expanding brackets and rearranging formulas.
There is the scope for very good pupils to extend the project in interesting directions.
This contains a dynamic introduction to Stem and Leaf diagrams, using a sort of game. There are then examples to be worked through in groups, and further practice questions to be attempted individually. All provided with answers and commentary.
A series of projects on rearranging formulas.
(Note: Some of the embedded equations do not display well on the TES preview but they all display perfectly on the downloadable PDFs)
Each project is linked to real life situations, and also includes lots of practice at other 9th Grade / 10th Grade Skills: standard form, algebra using brackets, volume formulas, rounding, units, surds .
A bumper collection of resources for Factorizing Quadratics, including various activities and games and plenty of practice questions, which also include the other types of factorizing required for 9th and 10th grade.
