David Morse's Resources

Average Rating4.92
(based on 7003 reviews)

I regularly upload resources that I have created during 30 years as a teacher. Most of these are maths, but there are some ICT/Computing and Tutor Time activities. All of the resources are my own and are not available from third-parties. The resources have been tweaked over time and I have had many happy lessons and shed-loads of happy and successful students. At the end of 2017 the TES announced that I was the most downloaded new author and in 2018 another 2 million were added to the count.

Substitution - Single Variable (Worksheets with Solutions)

(1)
These worksheets (with solutions) help students take the first steps and then strengthen and extend their skills and knowledge of Substituting a Value into an Expression that contains a Single Variable. Questions are carefully planned so that understanding can be developed, misconceptions can be identified and so that there is progression both across and down each sheet. Interactive versions of these sheets are available at https://www.maths4everyone.com/skills/single-variable-2121.html The interactive version allows individual questions to be selected for enlarged display onto a screen. The answer can then be worked out ‘live’ by the teacher (or student) or a single click will reveal my solution. This not only helps in class, but it is also very useful for a student who is revising at home.

Addition and subtraction Spirals for KS1 (with solutions)

(4)
Aimed at KS1, this is a really good activity for getting students to do lots of adding (and some subtracting). It is ideal as a starter or plenary, but it is quite easy to extend it by modifying the starting number and/or the numbers which the students must add or subtract. I have included worksheets set at three different levels, each with a relevant extension – a sheet of blank grids are provided in case of mistakes or for you to set an even more challenging spiral for your Superstars. I have also copied each of the spirals and the full solutions into a PowerPoint so that it is easy for you to display on screen. When a student finishes a spiral you can get them to circle the even numbers, or numbers bigger than (for example) ‘20’ , or number with (for example) a ‘4’ in them. Other extensions include selecting numbers (maybe the corner numbers) and getting students to write them as words, or to add them together – depending upon the age/capabilities of your particular class.

Quadratic Sequences 1 (Loop Cards)

(7)
These reusable cards are excellent for one-to-one tutorials and interventions. They are also great when working with small groups or as a starter/plenary for a whole class. For Loop Cards on more than 50 other topics click 👉 www.tes.com/../more.... This particular set of cards allows students to practise working out the next two terms in a quadratic sequence. Note that the questions have been carefully selected so that they provide good coverage of this topic and so that the opportunities for students to guess answers are minimised. Colour coding: All my loop cards are colour-coded to indicate the approximate level of the questions: KS2 – red and orange KS3/GCSE Foundation – orange and green GCSE Higher – green, blue and purple Further information: In this download there are four sets of similar cards and a student chooses one of the sets and sorts them into order by answering the questions. Then they try to do it faster using a different set, which has the same questions, but a different sort order 😃 My favourite use of loop cards is for two students to have different versions of the cards and race each other. They then check their answers, shuffle, swap packs and race again (quickest overall time wins). More instructions are included in the download. Cut out card size is approx. 65 x 90 mm. 👍If you like this resource, then please rate it and/or leave a comment💬.

These questions have fully-worked solutions which can be displayed on a whiteboard making feedback with students more efficient. Click 👉 tes.com/…/KS2-Maths-Questions… for similar-style compilations on the other KS2 topics.<hr>This particular compilation is from the NUMBER strand and contains questions on Negative Numbers in Context. The questions include the use of temperature scales and number lines.<hr>I have designed this compilation to be printed as an A4 or A5 booklet which is in the style of the actual SATs papers and is convenient for use in class or as homework. It can even be given to individual students if a parent is asking for ‘some more work’! KEY POINTS: I have provided full answers, with comments and working where helpful. I have maintained the style of the actual SATs questions so that students can become comfortable with the way that SATs questions are presented. Most of the questions are from actual SATs papers, but I have also added questions so that this resource matches the requirements the current curriculum better than the older resources that are still in common use (note that many of the older resources of this type contain questions on topics which are no longer examined). I have spent a lot of time arranging the questions so that there is a general increase in difficulty as students work through them, and so that they fit on the pages better – this means less wasted space and significant paper-saving when printing 😃 <hr>👍If you like this resource, then please rate it and/or leave a comment💬.

You could also print all four SSDD tasks on a single sheet of A4 and set as a homework. The PowerPoint is interactive and optimised for large-screen display – it can be seen clearly from all parts of a room so printouts are not necessary. It also allows you to uncover the solutions to questions one-at-a-time (and hide them again if you want) 😃 Note that the SSDD idea comes from Craig Barton who has a web-site dedicated to these activities (www.ssddproblems.com). 👍If you like this resource, then please rate it and/or leave a comment💬.
