This fun identifying right angles lesson, introduces right angles to students and has a practical activity where students explore the classroom with their right-angle monsters - finding objects with angles that are 90 degrees. Includes whole class input (powerpoint), 30 different right-angled monsters (ready for students/teacher to cut out) and 2 different worksheets (one focusing just on right angles and one which includes acute and obtuse angles). The slides define right angles, acute angles and obtuse angles. Covers the year 3, National Curriculum objectives in Geometry - Properties of Shape: Identify right angles Identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle 7 slides, 2 worksheets, 6 pages of right angle monsters My students loved exploring the classroom with their monsters!

These algebra review sheets can be used with year 9 and edited for year 8. They cover the following skills: Use and interpret algebraic notation. Substitute numerical values into formulae and expressions. Simplify and manipulate algebraic expressions to maintain equivalence by: collecting like terms multiplying a single term over a bracket taking out common factors (factorising) expanding products of two or more binomials Rearrange formulae to change the subject. Use algebraic methods to solve linear equations in one variable. Answers are included. They can be used for assessment or for homework, or a combination of both.

This choose your own adventure Powerpoint task allows students to practise multiplying and dividing fractions. It is suitable for students in upper KS2 or for review in lower KS3. This interactive, no prep task can be done as a whole class (with the class voting for each option), in small groups or individually. It is suitable for homework or as a main activity. For each part of the story (each slide) students will have to either multiply or divide two fractions, depending on how they want their adventure to continue. This engaging activity is a great way to ensure students gain confidence in operations with fractions. What’s included: A Powerpoint activity that can be shown to the whole class or shared with students. A Powerpoint with the answers to each slide. A worksheet for students to record their answers. This activity is designed to engage students for one lesson. Students can complete the activity multiple times, choosing a different story every time, if they finish early.

This lesson contains whole class, individual and paired work. It includes a Powerpoint for whole class teaching and an individual task, as well as some flashcards or task cards for paired work. There is also some guidance for teachers on the notes section of the powerpoint. The lesson begins with the teacher explaining the different types of numbers, students then sort numbers into different sets as a whole class. After this student sort some numbers on their own and quiz each other on the number type of different numbers using task cards (the last two tasks can be done in any order). I estimate this lesson would take around 30 minutes. This lesson is aimed at CXC, 4th or 5th form students (equivalent t to year 10 and 11 GCSE) but can be used to teach any students about set of numbers.

A great game to play in a lesson on factors and multiples. A play on the usual version of people bingo, players use their knowledge of factors and multiples to find classmates who have numbers in their lives who fit each stated criteria. Great for year 6, 7 and 8.

This multiplication game involves building speed for the 6, 7, 8 and 9 times tables. Fun to play and adds variation to times tables learning. Repetitive play will allow students to build fluency in these multiplication tables. Students play in groups of 2 - 4. How to play Sort the cards into piles based on the shapes on the back. Each student gets a pile and shuffles their cards. On a start signal, students race to place their cards into the correct multiplication table mat. Students stop when the first person has gone through all their cards. Students then use the back of the mats to check all cards are in the correct place. They score 1 point for every card on the correct mat. They lose 2 points for a card on the wrong mat. Student with the most points wins. Teacher Instructions Print mats double sided and laminate. Print cards double sided and laminate. Print instructions for students or show on board. Game can be played in groups of 4 or less. Use as a whole class activity or for carousal activity.

Students match bar model to an equation. These algebra bar model dominoes/ loop cards help develop understanding in students who are new to algebra by bridging the gap between concrete and abstract. Covers additions, subtraction, multiplication and division. There are 30 cards in totals.
