This has been designed to support the White Rose Maths Year 9 scheme. Treasure Hunt activities promote cooperative learning and engagement by pupils working in pairs to find the correct answer.
It can be used as the main lesson activity to determine what learning has taken place and also it is a great revision exercise.
This Treasure Hunt is differentiated to two levels, amber and green. The green treasure hunt includes the extra challenge of finding missing frequencies from the tables given the estimated mean.
All our resources come complete with instructions, solutions and where appropriate ideas to stretch and support pupils. Check out NumberLoving for more ideas and resources like this.

GCSE 9-1 Equation of Tangents to Circle (Question Grid Worksheets)
This question grid has two levels, the first level each circle has a centre of (0, 0) and level 2 is more challenging with different circle centres and pupils need to find the Tangent to the circle at a given point. This is relevant for the new GCSE 9-1 UK specification.
Pupils will choose which level to work out and they select a square and answer that question.
It can be played as a competitive game such as ‘noughts and crosses’. Pupils answer on their sticky-notes or in their colour, claiming the square. The first pupil to answer three questions in a row (correctly) is the winner. See our blog post here about similar ideas here.
Thank you for looking.

Exact trig values is new to the GCSE 9-1 specification. This resource is to support pupils in providing summary notes or a revision resource. This resource has been updated and there are now four folables in this download; covering different aspects to do e=with exact trigonometric values and trig graphs. The four foldables cover;
Exact Trig Values; Pupils use the two triangles (one right angled and one equilateral) to determine the exact trig values using SOH CAH TOA. They will also need to use Pythagoras’ theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
Trig Graphs: Pupils are required to recall and sketch the graphs of sin, cos and tan from -360° to 360° on the given axis.
Exact Trig Values >90°; pupils use the exact trip values from the two triangles and use to calculate carefully chosen trig values e.g. sin 210°.
Using Exact Trig Values; pupils use the trig values to complete sums of different trig values (therefore pupils need to be able to add/subtract fractions).
Foldables can be used as a revision or summary exercise at the end of a topic. As the answers are hidden pupils can use these to ‘test’ themselves or ask someone else such as a parent to test them.

This resource is to provide notes or revision for straight line graphs and is suitable for the GCSE 9-1. There are seven revision foldables in this pack covering the following;
Straight Line Graph 1; given a sketch pupils state the equation of each straight line graph.
Straight Line Graph 2; given a graph pupils find the equation of each straight line graph
Straight Line Graph 3; given the equation of the line pupils draw the graph
Straight Line Graph 4; given the equation of the line pupils find the gradient and y-intercept rearranging where necessary.
Straight Line Graph 5; given the gradient and a coordinate point, pupils find the equation of the line.
Straight Line Graph 6; given two coordinates pupils find the equation of the line that passes through the two points.
Straight Line Graph Mixed; pupils complete one of each of the above
Foldables can be used as a revision or summary exercise at the end of a topic. As the answers are hidden pupils can use these to ‘test’ themselves or ask someone else such as a parent to test them.
This has been updated April 2019, adding new content. This purchase now includes an A4 version (UK printers) and a US version which is letter size (US printers), please ensure you open and print (following the instructions included) from the file most appropriate for your printer.

This resource covers median, mode, range, quartiles, IQR, estimated mean and modal class interval in the style of revision foldables. There are ten different revision foldables in total on this topic. This resource is also part of our foldables bundle, check it out below.
This pack includes ten foldables (one editable foldable) on the topics of averages and range from lists and tables. They are;
Averages from a list; pupils define and find the mean, median, mode and range for a list of numbers
Averages from a list; pupils define and find the mean, median, mode and range for a list of numbers which your able to insert before printing.
Quartiles from a list ; pupils state the method for each quartile and find the quartiles of the list of numbers
Averages from a discrete frequency table; a frequency table of discrete data is given and pupils are asked to find the mean, median, mode and range
Averages from a grouped frequency table; a grouped frequency table is given and pupils are asked to find the estimated mean, median, modal class interval and range (they will need guidance as to maximum and minimum range)
In this pack there is at least two versions of each type of foldable more than one version of each therefore one could be used during the learning phase as an example and another during revision. In addition on download you will receive two pdf’s, one is UK size paper (A4) and the second letter size (US), please print from the most appropriate following the printing instructions provided.
Foldables can be used as a revision or summary exercise at the end of a topic. Once complete the answers are hidden and therefore pupils can use these to ‘test’ themselves or ask someone else such as a parent to test them.

Updated This resources has new content added. It now includes one set in the traditional fan and pick style (i.e. answer on the question cards) and a second version of the question cards with the answer removed. Therefore giving more flexibility for how you might use them with your students. Previous buyers, please re-download to access new content.
Fan and Pick activity promotes cooperative learning (Kagan strategy), by creating situations for discussions around finding the correct answer and not just what the answer is. They can be used as a plenary activity to determine what learning has taken place, used to determine pupils prior knowledge to a topic and of course great for revision.
Each Fan and Pick set has a set of 12 question cards, each card has three questions differentiated by hotness. The sequences questions here cover finding the next term, the nth term, generating a sequence and deciding if a term is in the sequence; including linear, quadratic and Fibonacci sequences. Alternatively use the second set (with answers removed) as differentiated question task cards.
Full instructions and solutions are provided along with suggestions for stretch and challenge.
