A worksheet covering fractions of amounts, designed for secondary pupils. It includes a short Getting Started section with bar models to assist pupils, followed by a Fluency section to develop their skills. This then moves on to a Reasoning section with more complex worded questions and finishes with a couple of GCSE style longer questions. Answers also included.

Connect four game for pupils to do in pairs or groups of four (with two teams of two pupils). In my experience the activity works best when the board is laminated and pupils can use whiteboard markers. Pupils take it in turns to try and answer a question, and are peer assessed by the other team. If they get it correct they can put their initials over the space, and the goal is to get four squares in a row. The pupils could also used coloured post-its or counters. Answers are included.

Fun and engaging bingo activity on working out fractions of amounts to consolidate learning. Printable grids included for pupils to use. Questions include both unitary and non-unitary proper fractions.

Three stage worksheet for finding the median of a set of data. In the first section the questions are started for the pupils, with support gradually removed. The second section is to develop fluency, getting pupils to practice the skill independently. The third section is for reasoning questions to help develop pupils understanding of the concept. Answers are included.

Four worksheets of mean, median, mode and range where the questions change only slightly each time. Two sheets per slide, designed to be cut down to A5. The purpose of this is for pupils to start looking at (facilitated as needed by the teacher) the patterns from question to question and start predicting the answers based on the change in the question rather than just working it out as normal. Includes negative numbers and decimals. Answers included.

A worksheet of fractions to simplify where the questions change only slightly each time. Two sheets per slide, designed to be cut down to A5. The purpose of this is for pupils to start looking at (facilitated as needed by the teacher) the patterns from question to question and start predicting the answers based on the change in the question rather than just working it out as normal. Includes mixed numbers, improper fractions, simplifying to whole numbers and a few slightly algebraic ones. Answers included.

Mixed practice worksheet from my complete lesson resource found here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12682130 Goes through plotting and reading coordinates, finding midpoints from a grid and then also from just the coordinates of the line segment, with some more difficult problems to finish.

A complete set of slides and resources for teaching reading and plotting coordinates, and midpoints. Includes: Lesson slides (animated with explanations, these can be deleted if you prefer) Quick retrieval tasks after each teaching slide Mixed Practice worksheet Exit Ticket for quick short term formative assessment This resource is designed to fit into the Pearson Maths Progress KS3 Scheme of Work (Year 7 Unit 9).

Mixed questions on drawing pictograms, bar charts, bar-line charts and frequency tables. Some interpreting questions are also included. Designed to go in line with the Edexcel KS3 scheme of work Year 1, Unit 1.2, but could be used with GCSE classes too. Answers included.

Mixed questions on interpreting pictograms, bar charts, bar-line charts and frequency tables. I’ve put more reasoning questions in towards the end, but there are a couple here and there at the start too so all pupils get to engage with them, not just the pupils who finish first. Designed to go in line with the Edexcel KS3 scheme of work Year 1, Unit 1.2, but could be used with GCSE classes too. Answers included.

A complete lesson plan on Mode, Median and Range. The lesson begins with a prior knowledge check, then goes through each skill, with complete example-problem pairs (pupils are shown an example and complete a question themselves). After these examples there are questions on each skill, with answers provided. These start with some minimally different questions, allowing pupils to focus on what is changing from one question to the next - the idea being to draw attention to the changes and hopefully predict the next answer. These are followed by some standard skill questions, and then a reasoning section. The answers for the minimally different questions will appear before going to the next slide (which will also display the standard questions, alongside the reasoning questions) , so you may have pupils self assess these before moving on to the reasoning questions. After the practice for the median is completed there is an Always, Sometimes, Never task, followed by a mixed exercise for further practice. Again, answers are provided.

Fun and engaging bingo activity on finding the median of a dataset for use in the classroom, ideally to consolidate learning that has already taken place. Printable grids included for pupils to use. Questions include those with even frequencies and involving the order of negative numbers.

Fun and engaging bingo activity on finding the range of a dataset for use in the classroom to consolidate learning. Printable grids included for pupils to use. Questions include those with negative and decimal values and are easily rearranged for reuse.

Fun and engaging bingo activity on finding the mode of a dataset for use in the classroom to consolidate learning. Printable grids included for pupils to use. Questions include those with no mode or multiple modes and are easily rearranged for reuse.

Three stage worksheet for finding the mode of a set of data. In the first section the questions are started for the pupils, with support gradually removed. The second section is to develop fluency, starting with some questions with minimal changes and developing the difficulty to include questions involving multiple modes, or none. The third section is for reasoning questions to help develop pupils understanding of the concept.

Three stage worksheet for finding the range of a set of data. In the first section the questions are started for the pupils, with support gradually removed. The second section is to develop fluency, starting with some questions with minimal changes and developing the difficulty to include questions involving decimals and negative numbers. The third section is for reasoning questions to help develop pupils understanding of the concept.

Three worksheets on drawing pie charts to scaffold and extend pupils understanding: Sheet 1 - Completing pie charts when given the angles, practicing the skill of drawing and then scaffolding the calculation of angles. Sheet 2 - Drawing pie charts from frequency tables. Sheet 3 - Reasoning questions including fractions, ratio, percentages and algebra.

Treasure hunt activity on expanding brackets to consolidate class learning. Print off the cards and put them in various places around your classroom, the pupils then pair up and start at different places to try and work out what order the cards should go in. They do this by answering the questions, and then finding the next card which will have that answer on it at the top. Comes with printable sheets to record their card orders on.

Fun and engaging class game based on the old TV show Blockbusters, with questions on expanding single brackets. These range from fairly basic ones, to questions including negative multiplication and multiplying variable by variable. Split the class into two teams, blue and white. The blue team must try to create a connected blue line from left to right, the white team must try to do the same from top to bottom. Click on the letters to link to the questions, if the answering team gets it right then click “Game board” to get back to the start, and click on the appropriate colour for that team to turn the tile blue or white.

Fun and engaging bingo activity on expanding brackets for use in the classroom to consolidate learning. Printable grids included for pupils to use. Questions range from more basic examples such as 3(x + 5) to include subtraction, non-unitary coefficients of x, having the variable as an external factor and the inclusion of more than one variable. Initially the questions are roughly in order of difficulty, but being in PowerPoint format, are easily rearranged should use wish the complexity to be mixed up as you go through.
