41 files - loads of resources to use for learning all the properties and classifications of the different quadrilaterals. I've quickly uploaded these from my jumbled folders! Open each file and you will see what it is. Often the worksheet answers are coloured in white font so are hidden for printing. Unhide the text to get the answer sheet.

I've searched my hard drive for all Word docs made by me with the term "Keyword" Here theya re. I've opened them all and there's some really useful stuff in there - hopefully most are obvious from their file name but you will also find some gems in there as well. What I've started doing recently is always putting the keywords for that lesson on an A3 poster so that if the children want to use them they can look up to get the spellings right. Hope you find these useful ....I have found them to be.

Sixty Four files. You'll need to do a little work in choosing what you need but the basic idea is you set up a circus of probability investigations which the students move around and attempt in small groups. Each activity is designed to illustrate a particular concept. It's a lot of fun - I've used it many times but it's all a bit jumbled here. However it wouldn't take long to pick out what you need. Use the file "Each Task" to get what the activities are and then build it up from there. It's a great lesson to use if you want to have the students doing and investigating - particularly good for observations. I've thrown in a load of misc. Probability resources . Enjoy

If you want to run a school playing card club then it helps if you have the rules for different games ready for the children. I've copied these off the web but they are presented in a easy A4 format. Also I've adapted the rules to be understandable by children. Hence it's actually been quite a lot of work. Enjoy

You are on a sinking ship and you have to choose three people from the list of 10 people to save. You initially are told their key descriptor e.g. "Ex Heroin Addict" so many students will choose not to take this person. Later you find out that he/she is a survival expert as well so choices will change. I've used this with several Y8 classes and several Y7 classes. You need to think carefully about the titles of the people to make them appropriate to your classes. You can easily change the resources. Get the students in small groups all huddled around one sheet of A3 which you've printed the table onto. After you give them another fact about a person get them to write down on the table sheet who they want to save. Last time I did this I kept a record myself on an Excel Spreadsheet which meant we could keep the class trends on the IWB. I've enjoyed using this so much as the classes really get into it - even last lesson on a Friday. I've been thinking that I could use it again (after ammending the roles) with a group (even if they've already had it) if Mr Ofsted arrived on a day when PHSE was timetabled! There's also a dilemmas Senteo SMART Response thrown in which is good for discussions.

Developed and used successfully with a Y8 class once I had built up a good relationship with them. Adapt and modify to suit your classes. There's enough in here for much older students - possibly up to Y11 but I wouldn't go much younger than that - however you know your classes. The "Relationships LESSON PRESENTATION" gives the kind of structure for everything. The titles do give away what you will get in the bundle. I'm not going to describe everything else as once you open them they are all obvious how you can use them.

The key resource here is the "MyDetailedSolvingEquationsHS Update 2016" which is 33 worked examples of solving equations from 2x = 4 up to 3x + 4 = 2(x-3). It's presented as two sheets of A5 and can be stuck into the pupil exercise books as a reference. It's really good and many classes have found it useful. Everything else included in the bundle is similar worksheets which you can have a look at and I'm sure you will be able to adapt or use as they are.

Made this a few years ago when there was still a MA test at KS2. I collected all the KS2 15 second questions I could and then made a few more versions of each type until I ended up with all these. You print them out on A4 card. Fold each card in half. Then give one sheet to a student. He/She then reads questions to his/her partner. If needed he/she shows the question hint which is on the far right of the table - hence the fold in the card. These work really well. Makes a nice lesson starter routine or ender. There are 45 sheets of A4 so should take a while for them all to be seen by every student.

Start of year give them the booklet. Go through it using the intro presentation. Put a sticker in front of their books Get them to discuss strategies and the "Discussion Cards" give them prompts for how to solve problems - intention is from this THEY come up with how to solve problems (you can then give out the guides afterwards) The keywords are just something I found on the WWW. Sad to happy is a discussion exercise to get students to think about how to get "unstuck" Couple other resources included. Hope it helps!

The PowerPoint has 35 slides with each detailing a children's party game. You'll need to prepare the resources for each one (some don't need any). What it gives you is 35 great tried and tested ideas of what has worked for me so you won't have to do the thinking. I'd like to think the games are obvious but ....Message me if you can't work out what the game is (but only after you've asked a few of your colleagues or looked it up on the Web!) I've found that if you choose a few games to get warmed up. then you can flick through the PPT and see what the children want to do next. Do the opposite and Kims Game are included as they needed a PowerPoint too. Have fun :)!

I saw this on another teachers wall. Made it up for my wall! Enjoy

I saw the phrase on another teachers wall and liked the idea and came up with these. To save time making the resource I put the logo on a different doc so you have to put the PICTURES through the printer twice to get the WORDs on. Download the music when you introduce it. Sample just the key phrase which Vanilla Ice sings and loop it. The class got really into it.. so much so that when I said "STOP!" they all said "Collaborate and Listen"

I made these to help me save time when marking the books- If I wrote it several times one day I went home and made a sticker for it.. You need to buy the appropriate sized stickers. I got mine from eBay. The one I use the most is "Extra Challenge" which saves you having to write "Here is an extra challenge for you to do". Hope they help you too!

These can be used in so many ways.... I favourite is to write a question like "Mr Wrong said that Triangles have four sides. " Now explain why he is wrong. Other versions are shown. The A5 & A4 can be used where the students write several statements and then give to another student who identifies the incorrect and correct statment.. Enjoy

I bought eight gold bowler hats. When the students finish their work if it is right they can earn a gold hat and then spend the remaining time going around the class helping others. Some really love it and really rush to ear a hat. It doesn't work all the time and you have to watch out for rushing and so sloppy work however if you clearly state the success criteria and then only pass the best then it works.

You can you this in many ways: Grade the work you are giving by difficulty. Indicate on each question what grade they are from green to black. Either tell the students to do all the greens first and then move on, or allow them to choose what colour to start on. Or go around the classroom indicating to each student what they have to start on. Get students to write their own questions to set to other members of the class. Ask them to grade it from Green to black. This is good for assessing what they are comfortable at and what they think they are capable of. The PPTX can be printed out onto A3 as a poster for the wall. I sometimes need a harder than black and calling it double black seems to fit. When time allows I print the questions (with their colour grade) on a sheet of A4 sticker labels. I then give each table a sheet which will have all the questions on. If your table has four students on it there will be a discussion if there are only three green questions as someone will have to do a blue. This idea came from someone else who routinely ski route grades all their work and allows the learners to start at the level most appropriate to them. I had previously seen it presented as here are four questions on the board, now choose the question you want to do first. Recently I have seen people (and now used it myself) where several questions are given and the students have to grade them and explain why they think one is easier than the others. This ties in with my Maths Mastery Kung Fu Panda (see other premium resource) Enjoy
