Covers simple interest, compound interest, appreciation and depreciation. 3 exercises and a few big questions. Example problem pairs for everything.

Massive resource. 3/4 lessons. Covers 1-step, 2-step, factorising, multiplying then factorising. All with learning checks and activities. 37 slides. NOTE : I update my slides a lot, but don’t always update them on TES. You can always find the latest version of this PowerPoint here.

Quadrilaterals/kites/exterior angles. Need to add something on algebra when I come to update. NOTE: Everything is a work in progress. The latest version of this file can always be found at this link.

Covers how to draw a frequency table, continuous and discrete data and finding the mode from grouped and ungrouped frequency tables. Has a starter, some example problem pairs, some questions (that aren’t amazing tbh) and a plenary.

Lots of practice. A problem solving task that’s worth printing off and spending a good while on. A nice (if I do say so myself) activity on identifying which angles in an isosceles triangle are equal. Could do with a little algebra task to extend this. NOTE : I update my PowerPoints all the time, but don’t always get around to reuploading them. The latest version of this PowerPoint can always be found at this link.

Trying to use variation theory My thinking A question to start Reversing the terms. Does balancing still work? A subtraction. How does this effect our balance. Does reversing the terms still lead us to the same answer Increasing the constant by one. What happens? Also: a decimal answer. We can have a negative answer Divide x, instead of multiplying it. Increasing co-efficient of x by one. What happens to our answer? Doubling co-efficient of x. Not sure about these last two. I think they may be a step back from question 7. This is the problem with presenting these in a linear format. These questions are variations on question 1, not question 7. I might experiment with some kind of spider diagram. Doubling the divisor from 7. Again, maybe the linear way these are written is a bit rubbish. Don’t know how I like the order of these questions, but there’s lots to think about and something to tweak. I have found the transition to asking ‘why have they asked you that question? What are they trying to tell you?’ has been difficult for some students, but I think it’s worth devoting time to it. If students are inspecting questions for things like this, maybe they’re more likely to read the question thoroughly and pick out it’s mathematics. Big hope, I know.

Loads of maths content here in this christmas quiz

A resource that took me 5 lessons to go through. So there’s a unit here. (Adding in a few little worksheets I found online for some extra questions) Introduces sin and cos separately, using similar triangles. Then moves onto trig tables, so students aren’t just pressing a ‘magic’ button on their calculator. Then a little exercise choosing between them. Then tan. Then choosing sin/cos/tan. Then angles. Lots here. Lots of questions, lots of examples. No challenging or problem solving questions. This was meant as an introduction.

Covers simple solving, negatives and solving with unknowns on both sides. Lots of whiteboard work.

No union or intersection. Just the language of using ‘subset’ and ‘is an elelment of’ and the signs.

Big focus on correct language, including a little task that asks students to say if something is an expression, a formula, an equation or an identity. Lots of practice, worded questions etc. Recommend mini-whiteboards for this (and all) lessons. NOTE: I change my PowerPoints often, but don’t always get around to uploading the latest version here. The latest version of this file can always be found at this link.

Goes from listing outcomes (there’s a good maths4everyone resource for further practice on this) to using sample space diagrams.

As always I often update my slides, but don’t always have the time to update TES. The latest version of this lesson can always be found at this link.

No context here. Just focused on questions about writing the formula and then finding values of y and x.

I’ve kept this as a separate lesson from dividing. I think it’s worth taking the time. Prior knowledge check Example problem pairs Learning check When I come to update this, I will add a section on multiplying then factorising. It wasn’t quite appropriate for the class I designed this lesson for. NOTE : I update my lessons a lot. To correct errors or make them better. I don’t always reupload them here. You can find the latest version of my PowerPoint here.

Covers writing equations, finding values and direct proportion involving things like x^2

Covering the two main types of function notation in IGCSE Maths. Goes through things like f(5), substituting integers, and f(x+2) substituting algebraic terms. Includes examples, excersises, a blooket, a learning a check. Full lesson.

My annual Christmaths maths quiz is back for 2022. Includes a Shakin Stevens video. Why not. 5 rounds linking maths and Christmas. Should take you about an hour.

Very much a zoom in on one particular skill. Multiplying up or down recipes. Some whiteboard work and some questions along with an example problem pair.

Areas of circles lesson. Includes Example problem pairs Lots of activities Links to some mini whiteboard random questions A learning check. Probably two lessons. Quite in-depth. NOTE : Version management on TES sucks. Sometimes I update my PowerPoints to resolve errors or make them better. I keep the latest, updated version of the PowerPoint here.
